Very good question. My family came from Finland, and they always seemed not originally "Scandinavians", although they may have been there earlier and spread through a wider third of Europe much further south. As the Uralic traces in Russian are found also in Baltic and linguists noticed it in...

There is no written records, but there is heavy archaeology, written in the ground, of what centuries later became Poland. As clear, as the wagon trail to Oregon still has from busted wagons wheels buried on the ground. And as for the "East Germanic" or "Polish" Goths, there is enough digs and...

Curiosity? What were the Yatvingians? By their name and different spellings, could it be that the "Danes" were already among them as later (Viking Age Russ-Varangians) or/and maybe earlier (Goth/Burgundians/Herules). Once in Sweden i found crazy that they called or rather pronounced Gotheborg...

Fun, just to notice that in that map of Baltic folks one can find among them, from where and whom (carried on his own name) the Prussian ancestors of that fine Swede, Max von Sydow, came from to Scandinavia

As for the human population of those places, i guess that however their ancestors may have arrived coming from different directions and past folks into a present pot of many % by towns or/and individuals, they may feel very comfortable being fine Poles. Id be proud, even if my Pole ancestors...

My take? How could it be for a land to be one human ethnic subdivision more or the other? Maybe more evergreen Taiga or deciduous forested or steppe, Tundra or desert perhaps? But Slavic or Germanic, Celto-Baltic, Catholic, Lutheran or Pagan???....perhaps more true to Real Madrid or Inter of...

And given, that we know for SURE, that North African troops of the Islamic Caliphate occupation armies were cantoned on the Northwest of the Iberian peninsula, from Asturica-Legio in the plains deep into the Gallaecia and Asturicum provinces all the way to their coastal city ports from Gijon to...

Well, let's see why and for how long that runs. This can't be part of the blind Africanism running savage elsewhere, but a "lite-version" of it trying to conscript all African traces in Europe into some pseudo-military "invader" intruder set. Is that it? And I hope is not either from the...

"thought" and "probable" are very wobbly measures to end deducting as "is even" in that mathematic cloud (5000-3500=1500 BP???) and even harder to translate it through that howitzer over the ground hard evidence of the archaeological record dig of cultures or bones "still not walking that talk"...

Not proposed, but asked -by me (note the "?")- if known about it or its possibility, given the mention by Martiko of those barbarians as "hostile to Passiegos" being the cause to their existence there. And taking into account who these really were and came from along with (according to UK expert...

I -as many- still can't really know it, thus why asking aloud in an open forum if somebody knows better theory/ies that may fall more accurate with the missing pieces of the Puzzle, and not in disarray with what known historically, pan-sifting through them as near and far back as historical...

I also agree, the hg 81 seems too widespread, although in thin thread declining minority, to have appeared by queer chance from a few, or many, military outposts in a very conspicuous row of them, where the % must have been higher to get the surviving results. And if so.... HOW so much less...

OR... was hg E-M81 already brought by the Visigoths migration train along hg R1a from somewhere else? The Baltic or Black sea? From their Vandals or Ostrogoth allies in the Mediterranean? There were truly some of these barbarians who went back to Scandinavia with new "brothers in arms" as tribe...

That is interesting. There is sources for that? But data seems not right. The Pasiegos are not really anywhere near the Pyrenees but in deep valleys within the Cantabrian coast mountains. The closest to the Pyrenees mountain passes (Pass-egos?) is 200 km away from the Pasiegos, either by the...

If one has been to the Canary islands, one would see many modern Germans or British living there with what could be called that Britannica "brown complexion" or perhaps darker than what this may meant. And I think their blonde or light eyes found among Gwanchies, can be found among Moroccans of...

English settlers in Germany and Hungary too!

I spoke with a local Basque, neighbors to the Pasiegos, and he explained to me what they know from those 20-40% dot people. The singular and heavy presence of Pasiegos in the northern mountains of Iberia, and their spread among Cantabrians and some Basque territory, is attested since the XII...

I have seen people like that extremely freckled fellow, and of all the odd places , in Afghanistan and Korea. Dark skinned with very pale blue eyes, not far, in India.

And if males Y-lines did enter in Europe all across, which female Mt-haplogroups did accompany it with, L or M or U or those in Iberia already? My mother matrilineal ancestry says V hg was originally coming to the north from Iberian Mesolithics, but E-M81 is originally from Egypt or Libya?! Did...

Yes, so HOW or/and WHEN did the "almost none" haplogroups from Africa got to the N.E. of Europe? Maybe "the North" of Europe (?) does not count.
