>according to a recent study based on genetic research into the Y chromosome of 1,200 men, half of men in Western Europe are the descendants of a single Bronze Age ruler.
>The monarch, who lived around 4,000 years ago, is likely to have been one of the earliest chieftains to take power in the continent.
I'm a patrilineal descendent of the King of Britany who fought alongside Charles Martel at Tours.
But so are about 150 000 other people. But where's the surprise? Successful men have big families, and those families have big famlilies. A big family is the definition of success, and you fail at life when you don't do it. So people alive today are all alive because all their ancestors were successful, so of course they're almost all descended from kings.

So why is hypergamy wrong in modern times if it was so effective in ancient history
I assume it must be referring to R1b-P312, TMRCA of just ~4500 years as of 2020. Not sure why specifically one king, but then again the group is only defined by two additional mutations. These bell Beaker chads pretty much spawned the most relevant people ever, from Romans to Celts and derived people.
If you go back 30 generations, everyone of those people back then that had children who had descendants that are alive today, is your direct ancestor. Atleast every European one. Royalty and peasantry, everyone.

How can 50% of West Europeans descend from a handful of Bronze Age guys?
Did they just fuck everyone's women and kept harems?
Is all this racial stuff just the derivative of a handful of guys who fucked more than others?
