The use of stylized bell-shaped pots like this one from Sierentz, France spread across Europe beginning about 4,700 years ago. DNA analysis show that this so-called Bell Beaker culture was brought to Britain by people who largely replaced the island's existing inhabitants. Anthony Denaire

It sounds like the Bell Beaker people were giving away smallpox infected blankets to the locals. /s

Mostly by males and population replacement? Hmmmmmm? Where are we seeing that now?

It would make sense that refugees fleeing outbreaks of plague could be behind some of these resettlements. Of course the modern counterpart also often stems from another kind of plague: Islam.

But where early peoples may have been powerless and unsuspecting the leaders in the West who want a less Christian, or even less white, society are into civilizational suicide eyes wide open.

Tower of Babel: 2242 BC

Genesis 11:6-7 (NIV)
6 The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”

without disclosing the specific ancient haplogroups, it’s kind of meaningless to just say ‘according to DNA...’

You have to suspect culture, technology and particularly susceptibilities to diseases. Culture must have been fairly dominant in that female dna mostly survived.

interesting.

the theory that ancient brits were killed off by the plague may explain why only may 40-60 percent of the population was killed off in the 1300 by the plague when it struck again.

by comparison the death rate of new world indians when exposed to chicken pox or small pox was close to 100% because they had never been exposed to these diseases before.
