List of labels :
"APG" 3 samples
"HEU" 2 samples
"HOC" 4 samples
"LWB" 3 samples
"SCN" 1 sample
"MBG" 17 samples
"BTB"  2 samples
"LAN" 1 sample

That is 33 samples campared to the claimed 31 individuals ...
I would suggest that "HEU" may stands for Heuneburg ... no clear idea yet for the others.
I suspect that these sites are localised around South-western Germany, Eastern France, and Switzerland ... I think that they trace the whole Celtic sphere using already published samples.

MBG is likely Magdalenenberg bei Villingen, a major Hallstatt site in South Western Germany:

There is a second one in Southern Austria (Carinthia), with a similar name, Magdalensberg:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadt_auf_...dalensberg

More than half the samples are from this site (17), which is big. I guess its the German site, which would fit better in with the other Western Hallstatt sites. Aren't these completely new samples?

Again, would be great to see some yDNA if they are new and to get a link if they are old.

Paper from 2013 on the issue:

There are a couple of cremation burials on the site. The inhumatin burials were analysed, but at that time without ancient DNA, probably they gave it a shot with the new methods - back then they considered it too bad material for a DNA analysis.

I am very sure the German Magdalenenberg.
