In the Przeworsk culture, skeletal burials appear only occasionally, so they are not representative of the 99% of the population who practice cremation.

Like for Slavs it might therefore be helpful also for the Przeworsk culture to look outside it's core regions, e.g. in Pannonia. If we look e.g. on the samples from Fonyod or Hacs after 425 AD with a "north-west European" shift, this might actually be a Celto-Germanic shift that one could expect based on archaeologic material culture for the Przeworsk culture. Will be exciting to see if these samples cluster with the upcoming Przeworsk samples from Poland.

it is def a good approach to look at sites in closer proximity but i would think that those sites are too far removed to have still gotten into contact with the prev cultural zones eg for shifts especially

for one the area was part of the Roman province so that the samples overlapping SE (and recurring in all three sites) are most prob the locals of the area they encountered once crossing over the Roman border; maybe even the locals encountered there before the Romans once established a border; eitherway a pop not sufficing a NW shift and with elements like ACD (Fonyod and Balatonszemes) and even a text in Gothic (Hacs) this is most prob a group in the context of the Hun/MP movements, and pos from areas further away; too bad that McColl did not incl these sites in his IBD analysis specially in regards to the Wielbark/eScand cluster a snow we would be smarter; in all scanning the broader areas DA119 (?Vandal) from Poprad is prob/maybe what to expect for the overall Przeworsk profile aswell

for Salvic cores there could be the Brushed-Pottery culture aswell as Milograd>Zarubintsy>Kyiv zones further south to the Black-sea; the former has an interesting passage on the German wikipedia page:

SpoilerIm 2. Viertel des 5. Jahrhunderts werden zahlreiche Siedlungen durch Brand zerstört. Besondere Formen von Speerspitzen weisen auf Hunnen. Aus der Zeit danach gibt es keine datierbaren Zeugnisse der Strichkeramikkultur mehr.

eng:In the second quarter of the 5th century, numerous settlements were destroyed by fire. Special shapes of spearheads point to the Huns. There are no datable evidences of the Line Pottery culture from the period after that.

which would also place it within the wirrwarr of the emerging MP
its close proximity and Baltic association could explain the early Slavic profile aswell as the single occurrences of M458 and L1029 further west in IA Hungary or Wielbark earlier on, with said profiles
