Do the Lech valley EBA samples overlap with any BA samples from France?
Quote:The Hauts-de-France sample in green is the Bucy-le-long sample (BFM265). He lies at the fringe of the German samples. We should bear in mind that the Hallstattian zone of influence in France never really concerned the Hauts-de-France, which seems to have had its own specific history.
Right. But the bulk of the Hauts de France blob on your PCA overlaps with the Hallstatt german samples, so couldn't that guy be more a "British/Armorican local like" outlier? Apparently RSFO migrants/ceramics from the south did reach to parts of Hauts de France, especially the south eastern half.
