Single grave

Davidski has rumours, some about single-grave and R1b-L51.

R1b-L51 is controversially associated with the "Single Grave" culture. Uncontroversially, L51 begat L151 who begat P312 who begat L21. L21 is the most-prominent "Bell Beaker" marker who begat most of us. Davidski is saying that this controversy is about to be interred into its permanent abode such that, yes, Bell Beaker is an heir to Single Grave. Unsure at what point L21 was born among the single-graves.

For all my interest in deep ancestry I've not commented about the "Single Grave" culture until now. (Davidski is correct it doesn't get much attention.) I am told that its floruit was 2800-2200 BC in the Low Countries and (what's now) Denmark, so Chalcolithic. This was an extension of Corded Ware, famously late-Neolithic over northern Europe.

Carlos Quiles did pay it some attention, back in 2018. I wonder how well that textwall will stand up.
