Hi everyone
I recently stumbled over this article:One-million-Brits-descended-from-Romans on the site telegraph. (sadly i cant post post the link)
which suggests that at leas 1 million british men have a roman Y-dna. Now if you look at the population of england today (53 million) isnt that quite a lot? doesnt that mean that, if you assume every family had the same amount of children on average the last 1000 years that at least every fiftieth briton women back then who had children during roman occupation had them with a roman?
I also wonder how it looks like in todays france. does anyone know of studies in france?
