All the tests I've done give me the result of 100% European or 100% British Isles. My Ancestry originally had me as 85% British Isles. The other 15% was Western European stretching from NE France to Denmark. The revised Ancestry results now have me at 100% British Isles.
After making a few...
You have only given us a history of the Halstatt/Central Europe Celts of the Iron Age. What about the Insular Celts of the British Isles and the coast of western Europe? These people were orignally Q speaking Celts (the Irish and Hebridean Scots still are).
I read somewhere that the Insular...
According to the sources that I have read, very few Italians came to Britain during the Roman occupation. Most of the people that the Empire brought to Britain were Gauls, Spanish and Germans. There was also a legion of Syrians who were claimed to have settled in NE England near Hadrian's Wall...
Scotland and Greece
Despite the fact that the two coutries are poles apart. i.e if we imagine a NW and SE axis between Europe's geographical extremes. The following YouTube shows the remarkable things the two nations having common. e.g. early Scottish kings had Greek names such as Alexander or...
I've done a few IQ tests. My scores have varied between 109 and 142. The lowest score was on a televised test and the highest one was an on-line test. I did the supervised MENSA test and scored 135 - this was done in response to a MENSA trial test in a magazine that recommend doing the...
LOL that reminded me of something I read in a book about WWII. According to the book, many Germans had the impression that the English were all blonde Anglo-Saxons, but got a culture sock when they first encountered the English. They found most of them to be short, dark guys who whistled a lot.
I've made my point WRT gay marriage in the other gay thread. Regarding homoseuality - I have no problem with it. Provided that homosexuals have consenting relationships with adults and don't bore the rest of us to death by telling us how wonderful it is to be gay.
BTW it is not as if a person...
I don't have any issues WRT gay marriages. Nevertheless I do believe that people who are opposed to gay marriage due to religous reasons should have respect for their religous sensitivities.
Some while ago there was a legal and moral controvesy regarding a Christian baker in Northern Ireland...
It is interesting to note the relatively high levels of R1b-U106. I expect that this will represent Frenchmen decended from the people who gave France its name: the Franks.
Both the Vikings and Normans were in Sicily. Despite the fact that R1b-L21 is asscoiated with the Insular Celts, it was taken to Norway via migrations from Scotland and Ireland (mostly slaves). It was sometimes possible for a former slave to join Viking expeditions and Celtic DNA markers have...
Civil engineering - many Irishmen have traditionally been involved with the British building industry. According to the QS Ranking of 2021, seven Irish universities that provide master's degrees in civil engineering are among the best in the world.
The Kabbala (sometimes spelt Quabbala) is a Jewish system of mysticism. It's usage is found among Rosicrusians and people who practice ceremonial magick. Despite this system of mysticism originating withing Judao-Christianity, its usage has always been frwned upon by Christian churches. So I am...
Do Jews or more specifically followers of Judeaism need to be saved by 'opening their hearts to Jesus'? Or are they exempt them from this, due to the Bible claiming that they are God's chsen people?
