It lasted from around 3100 to 2000 BCE and is most famous for its gallery gravemegalithic tombs, which incorporate a port-hole slab separating the entrance from the main burial chamber. In the chalk valley of the River Marne, rock-cut tombs (hypogea) were dug to a similar design. Some have examples of megalithic art with images of axes, breasts, and necklaces carved on their walls.[1]
The culture seems to have had strong links with other areas and may have arisen from a composite of influences as indicated by the gallery grave design common across Europe and the pottery types which have comparators in Western France from 2600BC and also in Brittany, Switzerland and Denmark.
Ten individuals dated between 3400 to 2900 BC were tested from two collective burial hipogea of the Mont-Aimé site (Val-des-Marais, Marne department); six out of seven males were assigned to the Y-chromosome haplogroup I2a1b1b1 (Y13335), and there was an individual belonging to haplogroup H2a1a. The autosomal components were a mix of European farmer and Western hunter-gatherer (this one ranging from a minimum of 20% to a maximum of 55%).[2] Two males buried in the Pierre Fritte dolmen (Yermenonville, Eure et Loire department) had the same mitochondrial haplogropup K and Y-DNA haplogroup I2a1.[3]
