Just in case you are trying to bait, I will refrain from being triggered and leaving a wall of text and will instead just say the following. Study the archaeological heritage, because the influences from the Daco-Roman period carried well into the early medieval period through the Santana de...

Most likely R1b-Z2103 among the royals and warriors initially, but dominated by E-V13, J2a, J2b and traces of G2a among the pre-Dacian locals. Eventually, as time went by the locals became Dacians, so all of these haplogroups began to be typical for Dacia. Then when the formation of the...

Geographically, it's at the crossroads of the Balkans and Eastern Europe. The better term would be Southeastern Europe. But genetically, Romanians are closer to Bulgarians and Serbs than the latter are to Croatians, Albanians and Greeks for example, so being included in a cluster with them makes...

It takes a lot of intelligence and creativity to shit in a hole dug in the ground.

If you go to "Settings" and opt into their beta program, then they will unlock this for you.

Wait, it's actually bordel for whorehouse in the dictionary, whereas bordei is what you wrote. However, some people pronounce bordel as bordei, including me.

My updated results with regional breakdown

In my area bordei mainly means a whorehouse

To be fair Romanians have huge intra-ethnic diversity in phenotypes. So, you'll find anything from Dinarids to Pontids and Baltids. There isn't a stereotypical Romanian face so to speak.

But genetically they are also ones of the most Southern in Romania. Phenotypes are just a lottery really.

We'll see, at some point most things will be answered and get backed up by data. In terms of pigmentation, I never found it important to actually do my research on this. But generally, people might have lighter complexions on average in the North, be it East or West. Here are some people from...

I won't argue any longer, as I've explained myself already, but I hope that there won't appear new excuses when we get Thracian/Dacian haplos and they turn out to be something different than I2a.

It's the same thing. Few to many

That's actually a well known theory in genetics. What you have described is called a founder effect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Founder_effect

They were assimilated based on what? Written sources, archaeological data, DNA samples? As far as I'm aware that's just a speculation. Y3120 encompasses all of I2a1 in Romania and the Balkan countries and it split 2.2k years ago. That's way too late for Thracians. Goth was an umbrella term for...

Where are your sources? The Thracians were "related" to modern Sardinians only by having shared loads of Farmer ancestry, near Mycenean levels. That was pretty typical for those parts of Europe who had the numbers to absorb the Indo-European migrants without getting altogether genetically...

Not really, that's simply how they call the average of a bunch of modern people from Southeast Europe. Apparently, it's tipped towards West Balkans, which indicates that there are more references from there. With regards to vikings and whatever ancients from Europe, everyone in this thread is...

Highly unlikely - you see when it comes to tracing the origin of a subclade, the numbers alone are not enough. That might simply be a bottleneck and it really seems like that, because Croats nowadays overwhelmingly belong to I2 (Y3120>S17250>PH908). What's more informative is the diversity of...

That's a lot of Balkan.

Am I the only one who's surprised by Finns being modeled as 10% Nganasan? I mean Nganasans look like Eskimos. Prior to this study, the estimates were more conservative, up to 5% from what I noticed.
