Amazingly though, you found it enough of a contribution to spend your time in reply.
Let me quote from the original article:
> "This suggests that the newcomers exterminated the men in the farming and hunter-gatherer populations they encountered, while incorporating the surviving women into their community"
They "incorporated" the women, uh huh...
> In other places, “it’s a process of almost no mixture with the previous people, who just disappear”
So in places where the women were more resistant to "incorporation" they were killed along with the men.
Oh, no they weren't all killed, they "just disappear". We do love our euphemisms don't we 8-/
I don't want to be a detractor from having happy fantasies about this, but it seems to me they're pretty much like every human culture: the one who kills all the others is in charge.
While this may have been a beneficial survival strategy in prehistory, overcoming this is on what the future survival of our species depends. That's the idea I'm trying to contribute.
Sorry this wasn't helpful enough for you... I'll try harder next time...
