At least 2 × 12 cM identity-by-descent (IBD) connections are marked on the cemetery map. Edges are weighted according to summed IBD, as indicated in the legend. Source data are provided as Source Data file, Supplementary Data 1, and 11. Colors of the edges represent IBD connections among individuals buried with Bodrogkeresztúr (blue), Bodrogkeresztúr-Salcuța (green) pottery styles. Pedigrees are shaded both on the map and the pedigree consistently. The pedigrees are reconstructed based on KIN, READ, IBD analyses and mitochondrial DNA and Y-chromosomal lineage sharing (Supplementary Data 12). Highlighted graves and individuals on the map bear at least 50 cM sum IBD of runs of homozygosity (ROH) over 20 cM in length. The presented pedigree of Family E and H are consistent with the results, but several alternative versions are possible, considering the missing family members. Green outlines of the symbols in the pedigrees signal Bodrogkeresztúr-Salcuța-style pottery in the grave.
