    Steppe Ancestry in western Eurasia and the spread of the Germanic Languages

    I was not responding directly to you. You are the one who cast the slur at the authors of the study, basically calling them "Nordicist" racists. How does that contribute to an open and fair discussion of the merits (and demerits) of the study? It doesn't, but is an attempt to poison and torpedo...

    Steppe Ancestry in western Eurasia and the spread of the Germanic Languages

    I'm assuming no one else is objecting (I hear "crickets") to the casting of this slur (tantamount to being called a Aryanist, Fascist, Nazi, White Nationalist, etc.), because they don't want it to be cast at them. I can only assume that his intention is to poison any open discussion of the...

    Philosophy Was Nietzsche German or Polish?

    I2a2b/L38 in Italy?

This gave the family a...

    Possible Habsburg Y-DNA haplogroup

    "Let's also note that the House of Habsburg-Lorraine is not the same Y-DNA line as the Habsburg. They descend from the Dukes of Lorraine, who themselves descend from the Counts of Metz in the 11th century." - Maciamo.

    Question Why do so many Atheists like Star Trek and Science Fiction?

    Because there is no God, only the Force. Lucas described himself as being a "Buddhist Methodist". The Buddha, of course, was not a divine being, but a human exemplar.

    Genetic study The genetic history of Scandinavia from the Roman Iron Age to the present

    I have a YFull SNP Match with an Ola Johnson Viktil, b. 1749 Trondelag, Norway, likely through a common ancestor who lived in Northern Ireland (The Ulaid) c. 650 CE (give or take a couple hundred years). He shares a common ancestor with two Byrnes c. 750 CE. His "Irish" ancestor could have been...

    U2e1d?

    Maciamo calls U2 "rare" and "ancient", with low numbers spread thinly across Europe, with ancient samples dating back to the Cro-Magnons, etc. U2e is "found in most of Europe and Central Asia / found in Mesolithic Germany and Russia, in Chalcolithic Russia, in the Andronovo culture, among the...
