Benjamin Mutin is an archaeologist who has worked in Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Oman, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. He excavated at Sarazm, Tajikistan between 2011 and 2014. His main field of research is the cultures and intercultural interactions within and between the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age periods.
Notably, we find 22 individuals that can be fitted as a two-way mixture between ancient Iranian farmer-related and AHG-related ancestries without Steppe pastoralist-related ancestry (referred to as ASI henceforth).
This suggests Iranian farmer-related ancestry likely did not come through Steppe pastoralist-related groups to India.
