Summary

Description
English: Genetic makeup of the Saka and Scythian cultures:

The Scytho-Siberian world is characterized by an admixture cline between Western Steppe Herders (Steppe MLBA/Sintashta/Andronovo/Srubnaya) and Khövsgö LBA herders (Mongolia), with additional varying degrees of BMAC-like (Neolithic Iranian) ancestry.

Iron Age Turkmenistan/Uzbekistan and Kisrov Kushan samples displayed a similar pattern of Steppe MLBA and BMAC-like ancestries, but lacked the Khövsgöl LBA component.

genetic data based on Gnecchi-Ruscone et al. 2021 [1] (Figure 3, geographic location: Figure 1). Detailed makeup of WSH, BMAC, and Khövsgöl are taken from Jeong et al. 2020 [2] , Guarino-Vignon et al. 2022 [3] , and Wang et al. 2019 [4] ; a detailed discussion on the Khövsgöl LBA is found here: [5] (Fig. 4.).
