Summary/Abstract: The study addresses the novel technology of compilation of electronic phene-geographical maps within the system of dental data analysis, visualization and cartography of Eurasia developed by the authors. Mapping dental markers frequencies in 16 samples from Eastern Europe and principal components loadings in 20 Bronze Age populations from Eurasia highlights two main migration vectors on the South Russian territory: west-east and north-east for western markers and south-north and north-west for combination of four-cusped first lower molars and other eastern markers. The Lower Don region is a precise line and junction in the marked system of migrations.
