That's a great question to ask Maciamo. There was a huge genetic shift in western Europe during the metal ages and Indo Europeans are probably responsible. The Celts probably whipped out the natives of the British isles, since Irish(Gealic) and Welsh(Briton) are almost impossible to...

Lots of people have mtDNA U5(like me) that doesn't mean they have more Mesolithic European ancestry than someone in the same population with mtDNA T or some other near eastern haplogroup.

Northwest European aka Celto-Germanic?

Red hair is most popular(10-15%) in Insular Celts(Britain and Ireland) and Finno-Urgic Udmurts in the Volga region of Russia. Scottish have mainly Insular Celtic ancestry, except maybe not in the south where there is a high amount of Anglo Saxon ancestry. Red hair exists in probably all of...

I read those two pages multiple times. All the farmers do cluster with each other but it's a general southern European(have the highest amount of early European farmer or just plain near eastern ancestry in Europe) cluster. I was being more specific when i said the Iberian farmer does not...

The only similarity between him, Otzi, and the Swedish Neolithic farmer Gokhem is they are generally south European-like. Portolan probably has ANE ancestry though which is why he does not cluster with Sardinians and Otzi.

Depends which ones. I don't know that much about ancient history, but i think Alexander the Great's armies and the Spartens should defintley be on the poll.

Early Europeans farmers descended from primarily the same source as do modern near easterns so that's probably why Stuttgart scored a little in a south-west Asian component. This 4,000 year old Iberian farmer clusters with Tuscans who have a significant amount of modern-like southwest asian...

Daskalaki, E. 2014 was published yesterday, and among other things sampled autosomal and mitochondrial DNA from a 4,000 year old Late Neolithic farmer from the site of El Portalón in northern Spain. This individual belonging to likely Mesolithic central-west European descended mtDNA haplogroup...

It's very surprising that the 4,000BP Spanish farmer clusters with Tuscans, from central Italy. To me it seems pretty obvious he has some ANE ancestry, and i think is very similar to modern Spanish and Portuguese(they were not in the PCA) who cluster in between Tuscans and Basque in PCAs with...

The N1a found in Neolithic Europeans is actually a rare European subclade. I think there is still debate if any mtDNa haplogroups besides U5, U2e, and U4 can be connected with Mesolithic Europe. Looking at the similarities between deep H subclades acroos Europe I am starting to understand why so...

Maciamo I don't understand why you generalize Indo Europeans, Balto Slavs, etc. The Indo European speakers 6,000ybp were not genetically a unified ethnic group. They did not arrive from Mars they derived from early humans so had probably some very similar mtDNA haplogroups to people they spread...

This is not a surprise at all Y DNA R is Mongoliod I would except it actually to be in Siberia 24,000ybp. Also Caucasian subclades of R R1b, R1a, and R2 is proof there was Caucasin-Mongoliod inter marriage and so is the mtDNA U. To me non of this is a surprise it has been what I have been...

You almost definitely have R1a1a1b2 Z93.

Since Jews have been in Europe for at the most 2,000 years and different groups came at different times. Looking at how their haplogroups are distributed in Europe and the Near east today does seem like a good way to figure out if it is European or Near eastern. European Jews in austomal DNA...

I really doubt I guess they kind of look European but Y DNa and mtDNA studies show they are Mongliod I am sure austomal DNA will show no traces of any European or Caucasian blood. If you shave them they look east Asian its their big beards that cover their face that make them look European.

Is there any ancient DNA from Japan? I bet there is a lot to learn about Genetic stuff in eastern Asia why is Y DNA O so popular in so many different language families? Are modern Japanese mainly from the Jomom people maybe.

I have been thinking the same thing the Yamna people(not all Yamna people) that I guess were proto Indo Iranian and Tocharian speakers around 5,000ybp were close to 100% R1a1a1b2 Z93 or just R1a overall. Indo Iranian and Tocherian DNA ancient DNA totally backs this up. And It is really popular...

I think it is pretty much settled then its Frankish.

Indigenous peoples of Siberia I am pretty sure there are many hunter gathers in northern asia. and some in Canada, Alaska, and New Greenland Na Dene languages.
