Artistic Reconstruction of a man of the Fatyanovo-Balanovo Culture (offshoot of eastern Corded Ware Culture).
Cool fact, they had carved bone pins that looked similar to Yamnaya ones. I wanted to showcase that along with ornaments made from bear teeth and a bear claw since related artifacts have been found at their sites (we just do not know for sure how they wore them). For pigmentation, there were many Fatyanovo who had similar skin, hair and eye color to Yamnaya (as did many early CWC) so I presented that here.
In Roman religion, the “do ut des” is the pillar that sustains the entire relationship between Gods and men: you give to be given. In the picture, my domestic altar during an offering.
This essential trait of the relationship between Gods and men is also important in our daily relationships between men. We need to give in order to receive. Reciprocity and respect of the other must be at the center of the culture of our social life.
Traditional primordial religions understand that there is more authenticity in a mutual gain contract than in almsgiving. Even Greek philosophy defended this ethical approach. Replacing the “do ut des” from the heart of our spiritual and material relationships has done great harm to our mindset. We need to return to the primordial “do ut des.”

This new website lets you compare allele frequencies between samples.
Genos Historia used it to determine frequencies in blue eye snp rs12913832 among IA Britons vs Anglo-Saxons and found:
British Celts 55% G allele,
British Saxons 93% G allele.

With the novel Orchestra method the authors determined that “(Scandinavian) ancestry was particularly enriched in the East of England and East Midlands, where we also found the highest density of former tentative Viking settlements, inferred as settlement names ending in -by, -thorpe or -toft, confirming previous reports of Scandinavian hotspots in Eastern England”
The same method estimates Ashkenazi Jews are close to 70% Roman (Italian) which means they, like Sicilians, basically are living representatives of Imperial era Roman citizens who were a mix of Italian and Near Eastern migrant

During the Early Middle Ages, Turkic Avars of Central Asian origin settled in Eastern Central Europe.
They remained genetically segregated from Europeans even after two centuries; both populations intentionally avoided interbreeding, despite their proximity.
"The generation-long genetic barrier was maintained by systematically choosing partners with similar ancestry from other sites in the Avar realm."

The bone with an Elder Futhark inscription found in the early Slavic settlement in Lahn (near Lundenburg), Bohemia.
In 2017, a cattle bone with runes of the Germanic Elder Futhark (dated 585–640 CE) was discovered in a Prague culture settlement near Lundenburg, in Czechia. The inscription contains no recognizable words in either Slavic or any other language, but seems to represent an attempted abecedary.
It may have been incised by people of Germanic origin that were present in the region, or the runes may have been engraved by the Slavs. In either case, the find attests to a direct interaction between the Slavic and Germanic ethnolinguistic groups, which opens the possibility of the runic knowledge being transferred to the Slavs by the Germanic peoples.

Reconstructions of a bronze age structure from the Netherlands which belonged to the Elp Culture, an offshoot of the Bell Beaker culture. It resembles a pergola or a Shinto arch and is thought to have had a religious function.
The Z301 (r1b) haplogroup, which is associated with West Germanic people in the iron age, was formerly found in the Elp Culture.

“Sweden's largest burial mound, the ancient site of Anundshög outside Västerås, has been subjected to systematic looting with metal detectors.
Over 50 pits have been found, most of them in ship burials, and the looting has taken place in places that are less visible from the road.”

NEW EPISODE — Radio North Sea International — Holy Europe
https://hearthfireradio.com/watch?v=whgiNgVI&src=rds
A review of the critically acclaimed travelogue by Finnish Heathen Aki Cederberg. Aki's Holy Europe is an exploration of the sometimes revived, sometimes dormant but ever present European soul. He goes to Germany, Sweden, Iceland, Lithuania, France, Spain and Portugal in search of something that must be recovered.
This reconstruction of a longhouse at Tisso in Denmark is white because there is archaeological evidence that the wattle and daub walls had been painted white.
Whitewash was widely used on peasant cottages around Europe since medieval times at least. While longhouses in other regions could be built of wood instead of daub, it is likely they were all painted.
It is unfortunate that most reconstructions have no paint at all as this gives a very misleading impression of the past.
A relevant quote from the paper:
Dutch coastal areas see a habitation hiatus around 1600 BP and
822 subsequent appearance of a new material culture that is often referred to as Anglo-Saxon in
823 nature 82, mirroring the genetics and timing of the Late Iron Age, linguistically West-
824 Germanic Frisians in this dataset. In addition, we find that the Southern Scandinavian
825 ancestry of these migrating populations is better modelled by individuals near Southern rather
826 than the Northern Jutland, and that the migrating populations often carry varying but minor
827 proportions of ENS ancestry, inherited from the earlier people who previously lived in the
828 region. In contrast to previous studies, which relied on Scandinavian samples postdating the
829 Migration Period 47, we can now reject the Danish Isles and Sweden as a source area for the
830 Anglo-Saxons in Britain, as these were dominated by Eastern Scandinavian ancestry prior to
831 the Viking Age (Figure 6).
