Why was a Mediterranean group at Roopkund, and how did they meet their end? Researchers don’t know and aren’t speculating. (An additional individual, who died at the same time as the Mediterranean group, had east Asian ancestry.) None of the tested individuals were related to each other, and additional isotopic studies confirm that the South Asian and Mediterranean groups ate different diets.
And unlike the earlier South Asian skeletons, the later group at Roopkund had a genetic ancestry tied to the Mediterranean-Greece and Crete, to be exact.
