    Genetic study Ancient DNA reveals the prehistory of the Uralic and Yeniseian peoples

    Abstract The North Eurasian forest and forest-steppe zones have sustained millennia of sociocultural connections among northern peoples, but much of their history is poorly understood. In particular, the genomic formation of populations that speak Uralic and Yeniseian languages today is unknown...

    Genetic study Whole-genome ancestry of an Old Kingdom Egyptian

    Ancient Egyptian society flourished for millennia, reaching its peak during the Dynastic Period (approximately 3150–30 BCE). However, owing to poor DNA preservation, questions about regional interconnectivity over time have not been addressed because whole-genome sequencing has not yet been...

    Debate 80th Anniversary of the return of the Regained Lands to Poland

    That sounds like the number of Poles living on those territories, which is not included in those 9M. Have a look at that source and the numbers. Certainly. And those killed by Soviets or perished fleeing the incoming front are included. And as I understand about 6M Polish people died during...

    Debate 80th Anniversary of the return of the Regained Lands to Poland

    An example: > According to the Berlin correspondent of london The Times, in 1945 Poles transported one group of evicted Germans in cattle cars from Danzig without water, food, or even straw on which to lie. When they finally reached Berlin, twenty were dead out of the eighty-three jammed into...

    Debate 80th Anniversary of the return of the Regained Lands to Poland

    There is a big difference between proven deaths and people that just disappeared with no trace. Current Poland territory had about 9 million Germans before the war. Post-war German counts of refugees/expellees were about 7 million. What happened to the 2 million?

    History Do you agree with this ranking of leading civilizations over time?

    That map is SO wrong. A prime example of ChatGPT contradicting the facts and itself. All of Europe, India and most of Africa under the Ottomans??? This list is a fun discussion starter. Note that it lists THE ONE most dominant civilization at any given time. On the question of Spain vs...

    Why modern Balts are more southern than ancient Balts?

    Have a look at Mittnik 2018, especially the supplementary information Figures 4 and 6a. You should see a decrease of HG ancestry and increase of EEF ancestry. I’d say it’s a result of people gradually moving across milllennia in several contexts: - the Baltic language is Indo-European, with...

    Question What makes the Baltic states close to each other?

    The economic development during past 35 years has been really impressive in all the Baltic countries, boosted by the original determination to gain EU and NATO memberships as fast as possible. EU membership has in turn boosted both private investment as well as infrastructure development. The...

    Ancient genomics support deep divergence between Eastern and Western Mediterranean Indo-European languages

    The later Eastern Steppe derives its ancestry from Corded Ware, not directly from Yamnaya (Western Steppe). This is surprising.
