Well, that's that...I'm going to declare GenePlaza results irrefutable and celebrate the excess of Scythian ancestry to which I will attribute my fighting spirit when attacked.

Seriously, I do have relatively close matches to some Scythians, but they were very Tuscan and Northern Italian like, so obviously people they assimilated on the way.

Still, that's two things about them that I like: they recognized that women are capable of fighting if necessary, and they were inclusive as far as admitting people of other groups as members of equal footing to them. So different from the Langobards who came to Italy.
