They have about 222 Beakers in the database along with reference material for each individual. For large archaeological complexes that were migratory (and whose data is spread across 20-something languages), this can be a handy tool.

It is curious to see a number of early dates in other places, such as the Netherlands and Hungary. The earliest Beaker date appears to be in Csepel-Háros, but Muller and Van Willigen consider these contexts, source materials and data quality in the larger picture (page 73).
A lot of folks are in this database which can be sorted by date, geography, or cultural attributes. You can export a selected group (Beakers) directly into an excel spreadsheet for analysis. Since I hate math and have no time, it won't be me. Good luck.
