The practice of patrilocal marriages (when the bride moves in with the groom's family) which is still practiced by modern Indian Hindus may have originated in the at least 5300 years BP PIE society. PIE speakers were the ancestors of modern European, Indic and Iranian speakers.

Indic splits from Iranic around ~5520 yr B.P. (4540 to 6800 yr B.P.) i.e. 3520 BCE (4800-2540 BCE) according to Heggarty et al. 2023. I'm not sure how does it correspond with the admixture date of 5400-3700 BCE (AASI and Iran_N-related) for Indus Periphery individuals.

The informal G25 tool gives similar estimates. Seems like they lack Steppe_MLBA ancestry. So, this doesn't go hand in hand with their claim of them being local Brahmin converts...

Westernized infantry of Marathas like Mahadji Scindia was always successful against local powers relying on heavy cavalry and artillery. On multiple occasions, the Marathas decimated the Pathans and Rajputs due to the incapability of the latter to successfully Europeanize.

The 'The Genetic Origin of the Indo-Europeans' preprint () still gets one thing wrong, i.e. modelling Yamnaya with Caucasus Neolithic. It can be seen that Trypilla beats both the Caucasus Neolithic sources when Yamnaya is modelled in a rotating setup.

Among all sampled Brahmins, only North Indian Brahmins show significant affinity to Steppe_MLBA relative to Indus_Periphery. Gharwali Brahmins are an exception. Gujarati and UP Panch Gauda Brahmins show the highest Steppe_MLBA affinity among all sampled Brahmins.

@avgavialenjoyer Genetically speaking, marrying outside your community is pretty good. Most Indian communities have suffered founder effects compared to people who never practiced endogamy like white Americans. So, castes are genetically isolated groups formed due to selective intermarriage.

A lot of people think that everyone's 100% Homo sapien. That's not true, when homo sapiens first migrated out of Africa, they mixed with Neanderthals and as they went to East Asia they mixed with Denisovans. So the only 100% Homo sapiens are modern day Africans, not Eurasians.

No doubt Hindi is a very good candidate for lingua franca but English can work even more smoothly. Dravidian speakers (D) already speak English and their mother tongue, Aryan speakers (A) speak English and their mother tongue. It's a more efficient solution. A ∩ D = {English}

yes, no pakistanis (which have been sampled) cross the 30% mark like gangetic brahmins, jats and rors do. Narasimhan 2019 claimed that kalash have the higest in south asia. when we separate IAMC and steppe ancestry, it's around ~25% pure steppe_mlba for them.

You were the RRJST001 guy right? Seems like you're more closer to Gujjars than to Potoharis. By the way, after acquiring multiple Rajasthani Rajput samples, both private and academic I think that there's very little difference between Rajasthani Rajputs and Gujjars as well.

Potohari and Rajasthani Rajputs are certainly the same. They even form cluster with each other. On G25, my closest population, all of them are either from potohar or Swat Valley. In india, only Rajasthani Rajputs are close to me after them, maybe gujjar kashmiri,Punjab, etc
