Mitochondrial and Y-chromosome haplogroups extracted
from prehistoric hunter-gathers after the Last Glacial Maximum in
Europe and related remains in Asia, arranged chronologically. Pitted
Ware sites are classed as Mesolithic here, because of their
hunter-gatherer economy, though they fall within the Neolithic period.
