Description: (A) Three-way model of Neolithic admixture with Caucasus hunter-gatherer (CHG) (10) as a source. (B) Three-way model of Neolithic admixture with Ganj Dareh (1) as a source. (C) Caucasus hunter-gatherer and Ganj Dareh admixture proportions from (A) and (B) are strongly correlated [coefficient of determination (R2) = 0.91; P < 1 ×10−7]. (D) We also modeled Neolithic populations with local, Anatolian [Pınarbaşı (6)] and Eastern, Mesopotamian Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN), proximal sources. Both Pre-Pottery Neolithic populations from Anatolia [from Boncuklu (6) and Aşıklı Höyük (8)] have no significant evidence for extra Levantine ancestry. However, all three Pottery Neolithic ones [from Barcın in NW Anatolia and Tepecik-Çiftlik (5) and Çatalhöyük (8) in Central Anatolia] have significant additional Levantine ancestry. (Ancestry proportions for some groups are nonsignificantly negative, reflecting statistical uncertainty in the estimates.)
