THE SPREAD OF ZEBU CATTLE FROM SOUTH ASIA TO THE EAST MEDITERRANEAN REGION AS A MARKER OF INDO-EUROPEAN POPULATION DISPERSAL

Abstract

The paper develops the hypothesis that zebu cattle (depictions) are a marker of Indo-European population dispersal from the Indus Valley to Syria and Anatolia in 7000–1000 BC. It combines the exploration of the data on human genetics (full genomes and Y-Haplogroups originating from South Asia), bovine genetic admixture distribution maps (mitochondrial, autosomal and Y-chromosomal), archaeology (findings of zebu figurines, pictures, images and seals) and Indo-European linguistics.
