Most ancestors of people who are currently anywhere, once came from another place and displaced (with various degrees of intermixing) a previous population. There are exceptions of course, like remote pacific islands (including New Zealand) where there hasn't been enough time to totally confuse whose the actual "native". Anatolia's current main ethnicity in particular is the result of relatively recent migration. Turks settled in Anatolia in the 11th century. When describing events happening 4000 years before turkification of anatolia, reference to "Anatolian" gene pool clearly references the people who lived there at that time. Asia minor was a always a complicated melting pot of a region, due to its geography. A migration Indo-European people was underway in Anatolia round the timeframe of the article, but it wasn't by all means a complete displacement of the pre-existing cultures yet. Anyway, history (and prehistory) is fascinating and it's a shame that people can't help but reduce it to modern stereotypes (and I've see that violence done from both sides of the political spectrum)
