A map of archaeological cultures on the East European Plain showing the locations of the study populations. The dashed line indicates the region that was presumably occupied by Uralic-speaking peoples in the Early Neolithic era, the 5^th millennium BC (according to [17]). Solid lines indicate three regions occupied by different ethnic groups in the 1^st-6^th centuries AD: Slavic- and Germanic-speaking tribes, densely dotted area; Baltic-speaking tribes, hatched area; Uralic-speaking tribes, sparsely dotted area [48,61].
