- A new study by an international team led by scientists at Harvard Medical School and the Australian Center for Ancient DNA now has shown that at least some of the Indo-European languages spoken in Europe were likely introduced by a massive migration from the Russian steppe.This new study challenges one of the most popular views about the origin of Indo-European languages in Europe, which is that the ancestor of all these languages arrived in Europe with early farmers expanding from the Near East...

Mar 2, 2015 · Our results make a compelling case for the steppe as a source of at least some of the Indo-European languages in Europe by documenting a massive migration ~4,500 years ago associated with the Yamnaya and Corded Ware cultures, which are identified by proponents of the steppe hypothesis as vectors for the spread of Indo-European languages into ...

Massive migration from the steppe was a source for Indo-European languages in Europe. We generated genome-wide data from 69 Europeans who lived between 8,000–3,000 years ago by enriching ancient DNA libraries for a target set of almost 400,000 polymorphisms.
Mar 2, 2015 · Published in the journal Nature today, a new study by an international team has shown that at least some of the Indo-European languages spoken in Europe were likely introduced by a massive migration from the Russian steppe. Almost three billion humans today speak languages belonging to the Indo-European family.
Jun 11, 2015 · This steppe ancestry persisted in all sampled central Europeans until at least ∼3,000 years ago, and is ubiquitous in present-day Europeans. These results provide support for a steppe origin of at least some of the Indo-European languages of Europe.

Feb 10, 2015 · Massive migration from the steppe is a source for Indo-European languages in Europe. We generated genome-wide data from 69 Europeans who lived between 8,000-3,000 years ago by enriching ancient DNA libraries for a target set of almost four hundred thousand polymorphisms. Enrichment of these positions decreases the sequencing required for genome ...
