I’d like to clarify something regarding my last post. What I meant by ”of mostly local ancestry” is that the sample was not genetically Scythian. He likely represents a European population that was absorbed into Scythian culture when the Scythians migrated into Ukraine

Massive Fixation index (Fst) chart I made for global populations for an upcoming video.

Fst is a measure of genetic similarity, with 0 being completely the same and 1 being completely distinct.

The most variation you'll see between Human populations is roughly 0.36, as observed in Mbutis and Karitiania people.

Addendum to my last post:

Although CHG is rejected for Veretye, Sidelkino, and Karelia HG, it seems like Samara HG had some clear CHG input. Which could explain why he gets higher Anatolian HG-related ancestry than the others
