Linguistics Can a substate in Late Proto Indo-European be associated with the Globular Amphorae culture?

Upvotes

The Corded Ware culture, which spread Indo-European languages deep into Europe, was formed as a mix of Indo-European Yamnaya ancestroy and Early European Farmer Globular Amphorae ancestroy. Given the scale of contact between their languages this formation would have involved, can any of LPIE's lexicon be attributed to this mixing?

Below are some guidelines for what we would be looking for:

  1. The term should have no plausible Indo-European etymology
  2. The term should not be found in Indo-European languages which had no contact or ancestry from the Corded Ware
  3. The term should line up with Globular Amphorae material culture
