The Beaker Phenomenon And The Genomic Transformation Of Northwest Europe

Íñigo Olalde, Selina Brace, Morten E. Allentoft, Ian Armit, Kristian Kristiansen, Thomas J. Booth, Nadin Rohland, Swapan Mallick, Anna Szécsényi‐Nagy, Alissa Mittnik, Eveline Altena, Mark Lipson, Iosif Lazaridis, Thomas K. Harper, Nick J. Patterson, , Germán Delibes de Castro

This study uses ancient DNA data to show that the spread of the Beaker Complex to Britain was primarily due to migration, replacing most Neolithic gene pool and introducing Steppe ancestry.
