Part 2: Review Vagheesh Narasimhan et al, The Genomic Formation of South and Central Asia

 The genomic evidence used by the authors to explain the genome of Central Asia and South Asia does not point to the Steppes and Europe. It points to Africa especially the Y-chromosome analysis.
Look at the figure on the South Asian haplogroups in the study. The vast majority of the South Asians carried the African haplogroups E1b, G and DE. Nine of the haplogroups carried by South Asians are of African origin, only 1,R1b, is related to Europeans. This results from the fact that the IVC Dravidians belonged to the Kosar or Kushan Tamil speakers who belonged to the Maa Confederation of Middle Africa.
The so-called Steppe population came from Anatolia and the Levant. These people were Kushites who spoke Dravido-African languages. These researchers are attempting to steal the history of the Kushites. The principal crop of the IVC was millet--not wheat. There are more Africans in the sample of this study than there are Europeans. For example, look at the attached photo of one of the charts from the article.
Look at the figures from the Vagheesh Narasimhan et al, The Genomic Formation of South and Central Asia on the E clades found in the study.The E1b samples are E1b1a E-Z6019 & Z6006 these genes are primarily Senegambian. These haplogroups and E1a/M33 generally travel together. 

The major African Y-Chromosome is A. Look at the Vagheesh Narasimhan et al, The Genomic Formation of South and Central Asia figure on Gonur dating c. 2500-1600 BCE noted that the Gonur people carried the A Y-DNA haplogroup. This puts Africans at Gonur, not Europeans.

The vast majority of the South Asians carried the African haplogroups E1b, G and DE. The Gonur people also carried the African Y-chromosome haplogroup A.




Nine of the haplogroups carried by South Asians are of African origin, only 1,R1b, is related to Europeans. This results from the fact that the IVC Dravidians belonged to the Kosar or Kushan Tamil speakers who belonged to the Maa Confederation of Middle Africa. The Dravido-Africans took these genomes to Central and South Asia.
