The original version of the Supplementary Information associated with this article contained an error in Supplementary Note 4, line 9, which incorrectly read ‘In the younger site of Spreitenbach associated with the Corded Ware complex only haplogroups of the clades I2c and I2a are present’. The correct version states ‘In the younger site of Spreitenbach associated with the Corded Ware complex only haplogroups of the clade I2a is present’. It also contained an error in Supplementary Note 4, line 11, which incorrectly read ‘All samples in the dataset younger than 2200 BC all individuals carry R1b, beside MX265 from Singen, which belongs to R1a’. The correct version states ‘After 2200 BC all individuals carry R1b, beside MX265 from Singen, which belongs to R1a’.

The original version of the Supplementary Table 5 in the Supplementary Information had several errors in column 16, as well as an error in column 9 (line 15). A line has also been added on line 31. The HTML has been updated to include a corrected version of the Supplementary Information; the original incorrect version can be found as Supplementary Information associated with this Correction.
