Bronze age cist burial. These were used in parts of Britain such as Scotland and Dartmoor and somewhat resemble Neolithic chambered stone tombs but they are much smaller and seem to be made for an individual burial - like a coffin.

They can contain rich grave goods including metal weapons

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.”

Late Brone age Levant pops have 15% frequency of important light pigment marker SLC24A5, Iron age Italians had 90% frequency

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.
