Alan you are an idiot

alan as an idiot Kurd even you should see that tested Kurds land between Pakistan and Dagestan (your own reference) so put a lid on it and move on...Caucasus/Middle East genetic component, which has dispersing all the way to North India, now if you read the study you will see that in...

Puting Kurds on a Global Similarity map based on autosomal analysis would put them as far from Europe as the Chinese...pointless to argue on Kurds being more European, nonsense. Just a sole Y-DNA cannot constiute who is Europena, Asian or ME.

"They did found Stone tablets in a kurdish Region of Turkish Kurdistan" Only an ignorant goat would call the region of acient Edessa kurdish region of Turkish Kurdistan. The other absurd thing is White Kurds, Y-DNA does not constitue skin color.

To put the question in other persepective and more simple terms, what would be the sources stating that tested Thracian tombs resuled as R1a and what would make them proto-Slavic? Regarding Pomaks only time and objective wide-scale genetic testing will tell their ancient migratory patterns. For...

iapetoc how could it be determined if the Pomak R1a is in indeed Slavic and not Central Asian R1a? Was the clade determined? regards

Ethnic Kurds is something different than Kurdistan in Turkey, which as an administrative region does NOT exist. History does not know any clearly defined region with borders called Kurdistan. Such may exist now in Iraq, but that is a different matter. My advise to ignorants like you is know your...

Has there been a comparison of a large Pomak y-dna study to y-dna discovered from Thracian tombs? Pomaks are condsidered by some to have have been in the Balkans prior to the many Slavic and other tribes who settled there after 6 century AD.

There is no geographic region in Turkey called Kurdistan (it is also absurd to talk about such). If you mean south-east Turkey then the bulk of gentic data would represent intermixed Turkish, Kurdish, Arab, Armenian and Assyrian popula. There are some villages in south-east Turkey even from...

Also, does Y-DNA have any effect on a person's appearance? It depends if it is a recent migration or not. I have a seen a blond man, with blue eyes, whose father was also blond with blue eyes typical Scandinavian looking (going back few hundred years, as far as memory serves). The whole male...

Hello Johny123, very interesting results, do you know which region of Bulgaria your ancestors are from and which ethnic community? I think if you are parental ancestor is from the region and is confirmed M84+, then this is significant as M84+ is not that common. Garrick, most Pomaks live in...

I am M84+, however this group seems very dispersed with no clear geographical hotspots. Samples range from the Levant, to Turkey taking a turn around Italy, Portugal and then appear in England? Looking at the region of appearance I would guess a predominantly seaborne allocation, best guess...

According to Wikipedia "Y-DNA haplogroups by ethnic groups" some 20% of Bulgarian population is classfied as e1b1b, however I am not certain how valid this is and furthermore this does not tell much of the subclades of e1b1b. The general belief is that the majority of e1b1b are V13+ which is...

After Deep clade testing I have been confirmed as E1b1b1c1a M84+. I would say this is not very usual for the Balkans and would indicate Anatolian or Levant origins. Any information of E1b1b1c1a M84+ in Europe and how it got there? I see this subclade exisits in English, Italian even German...

Anatolian, it is best you start first with learning your own history and the history of Anatolia. For further reading get acquainted with the Ottoman Turkish conquest and colonisation of the Balkans with the Seljuk tribes such as the Karaman, Saruhan and Karesi. There are no Bulgarians living or...

Hello Please note that physical appearance and deep ancestry are not the same thing. Different genes decide physical apperance than Y-DNA. Only some 5% of Turkish E Y-DNA is classified to cluster M78 probably V13, which is thought to be possible Balcanic with high concentration in Albania...

Ftdn Selam, Try Family Tree DNA, I would recommend the Y-DNA 37 marker test and if you want more detailed sub-clade go with the additional Deep Clade.

My paternal and maternal lineage for the past several centuries can be traced back to the ethnic Turkish community in Bulgaria. My fathers’ ancestors are from a small mountainous Rhodope village South of Philippopolis (Plovdiv – Bulgaria) and only some 30kms from the ancient Thracian city of...
