Interesting report Angela, thanks for posting. Still, it does not add much new information. About the proposition that he was likely executed, it has been considered that way for many years but there is also the possibility that he received a first wound that left him incapacitated, having then...

With all the problems that it has, it is still reliable if you are a third our forth generation immigrant to the US or Canada for instance. Though to me the major problem is actually classifying ancient admixture (what is from where), it isn't always that simple. For example, let's say that...

Tell me if I am wrong but the only people that identified with the word celt were the 'celtici' in southern portugal.

Oh I forgot I checked and I saw in the eupedia site itself that your mt-dna lineage is found in germany and scandinavia.

I'm sorry but may I ask which area of Spain are you from, i myself am from the city of braga in northern portugal. In case you might think to ask me, I ask merely out of curiosity since you have scandinavian autosomals which is quite rare in studies. I have only seen trace frequencies in 23andme...

I am no expert on the matter but I would say that is much too different from the iberian population featured on their webpage, it could mean one thing that I truly believe to be true, that is the iberian peninsula is a place where genetics may be very different from a town to the next since many...

Well let's just wait till some remains are tested, then we'll have our answers, let's hope that if found the dna is in good conditions for autosomal runs.

Yes indeed, I give them merit for that, maybe befora the reconquista there some major differences between north and south but with the repopulation events most of that difference vanished. In contrast the difference between east and west didn't disappear, I sincerely believe that the major...

Some of that northwest african can be from the moorish period but surely not for the most part since it has no north/south pattern like it should have.Let us look at portugal, if the northwest african admixture was from the moorish period we would see that admixture mainly in the south(alentejo...

Yes the big problem would be to separate the viking dna from the suebi, the visigoths and even some vandali. I believe the best way to differentiate is that the germanic admixture from barbaric peoples will be more widespread with its peak in the countryside areas near the city of braga( the...

You are right when you that Portugal has much less viking ancestry than england, normandy or even france as a whole, but only with a little exception of an area of the country that comprises today P?voa do Varzim, Vila do Conde and Esposende(south part). That said Portugal has with almost all...

I saw in a genetics post or in a forum that iberians from the peoples of europe are the furthest away from the others. Is this true in fst distances and if yes why is it like that, I mean what may have caused that. Is it maybe about more continuity from ancient times and less indo-european input...

c'mon give your opinions

I want to know what my forum colleagues think about this matter since it is something that not even portuguese know about or they do not care. Well I want to know the opinion of people here that know a lot more than I do about genetics and anthropology and than when they do I'll say what I have...

Well I just want to know if there is any data or study on northern portuguese autosomical dna. I am curious since this area is known for less neolithic continuity and more germanic tribes settleling in the area such as the suebi.

ok will not do it next time sorry

thanks a lot, I don't know you are really a forum hero

maciamo please could you just answer if you will/can do this:

Hi everyone, I would like you guys to enlighten me on this since it consernes the area that I live on. Most folks consider J1 to be immediatly a typical semithic haplogroup but I have read that that is not true.When I first saw studies conserning J1 has around 3% in my area I doubted of the...

Don't take me wrong I am very proud of my country and I respect the diversity there is but still I want to state that Portugal mainly in the north and interior is a very mountanous country and there is a lot of diversity from one population to another and I don't bother but when I hear someone...
