Extended Data Fig. 3: Genetic affinities of the MIgration Period BRC, DRH, OBM and RTW populations from Eastern Germany.
From: Ancient DNA connects large-scale migration with the spread of Slavs
a, West Eurasian PCA (present-day individuals are depicted as grey background points) with projection of BRC (n = 56), DRH (n = 49), OBM (n = 30), and RTW (n = 15) and other relevant Iron Age, Roman Period, and Late Antique populations (coloured symbols). b, Schematic overview of the geographic origin of ancient individuals with South European ancestry from Eastern Germany. The contours indicate the averaged maximum probability at search time 200 CE (multiplied by 100) for 10 individuals from BRC, DRH, OBM and RTW (denoting the mean prediction of the geographic regions where the ancestors of these individuals originated) as inferred using MOBEST. Results from two-way qpAdm analyses are shown as pie charts for each site. Made with Natural Earth. c, Schematic distribution of different artifact types among BRC, DRH, and OBM burials. The respective ancestry composition of each individual in respect to northern (WBI, CNE, NOR, BAL & FIN) and southern ancestry (CWE, WAS, NEA & AFR) (from supervised ADMIXTURE) is indicated as bar chart.
