So far the most sensible explanation of its origin is that it is the Iberian Neolithic Farmers that made it to the Balkans and Italy, IMO. If we want to go even further it comes from North-West Africa. Another key support to this is that the oldest subclades of E-M123 are found actually in...

Don't know how accurate this article is in terms of timelines. I know that Illyrians and the West Balkans in general were not good with iron until the 8-th Century BC. This is evident in the materials found in tombs; very few iron objects found before 8-th century BC. Their iron industry reached...

Also they got samples from Iron-Age Bulgaria and Ukraine (summers can get quite hot there).

There is tons of skeletons found from Classical Greek and Roman times. Nevertheless, no genetical testing done on them. I guess they're not very interesting...All we get is the "alien" cave-mans from 20000 yrs ago, that don't fit anywhere today.

Finding refuge in mountains is a sign of old archaic haplogroups. like the G branches found in Swiss-Italian Alps. For E-V13 this is also the case if we look at numbers. There is not that much of it left in Europe anymore, since the countries that have it, also have small populations compared to...

One option is the goths came and left without changing the Sarmantians genetically. Another option is that the non-Balkan Slavs came with or after the Huns. The Huns did disappear awfully suspiciously into nothingness.

As a gene it is more common in Maori and Africans, in East-Asians it is almost in-existent (so much for all that samurai BS), hence I would be careful calling it anything negative, since it can very easily take racial notes. From what I'm reading it is not as much about aggressive behavior as it...

practically it is a language connection with in it groups that are quite different genetically, so Romanians are not really Slavs.

I believe every normal person has experienced some form of attraction that goes beyond the common physical infatuation, and this is called "love". The nature of it is probably different for men and women, based on how they describe it. However, it is way more physical than people make it to be...

Frankly that kind of thinking is wrong and scary because it involves being the guard dog of someone else, and you have no idea who you're being thrown against. Other countries should solve their own issues directly, not use impoverished small countries as cover.

I guess the Creeks figured these genetical tendencies through observation Angela. In a fighting culture like theirs, it would make sense for someone with the warrior gene to stick with people from his mother side, since a lot of them probably also have it, and the group would fare better in a...

Since all countries in Europe have very similar mt-dna, that means all Europeans are genetically very similar in terms of agressivity and criminal behavior. Most actual differences are situational and not genetical. Is this also true?

interesting! So the phrase "like father like son" is actually incorrect. There is no way a father can pass his "warrior" gene to his son. For this case, the phrase should be "like maternal-uncle like nephew" or "like maternal-grandfather like nephew". Do we know of any warrior tribes that were...

MAOA is found in the X-chromosome, does this mean a male can inherit the warrior-gene only from his mother?

It might be weather related, in harsh cold climates or deserts you have to be somewhat driven and motivated in order to survive (you better take things seriously when it is -20 C and you have no proper shelter). The same goes for places with extremely high population density and competition...
