Karanovic in his study only states that they are mostly Anadolian, but among them were also some elements of previous population (residents od medieval bosnian kingdom) and those were ikavian and probably connected with bosnian catholics and also some Serbs in Bosanska Krajina (Karanovic thaught that difference between Serbs in Pounje also existed, and that one part of Serbs are those who lived in medieval bosnian kingdom , were ikavian and be close to catholics and muslims). Other jekavian Serbs which came from medieval serbian state were more dominant among orthodox population and their dialect overwhelmed the same way as dialect of ikavian indigenous population overwhelmed on Anadolian invaders.
However, both residents of medieval serbian and medieval bosnian state, ijekavian and ikavian were Serbs ethnically and were I2a2 Dinaric South.
If I understand you correctly, you have expressed your beliefs that:
1) I2a2-Dinaric South is marker of Serbs
2) I2a2 in medieval Serbian and Bosnian states is (based on locations for sampling data from DNA studies?) is Dinaric South
3) that besides historic proofs (I guess such as that the title of Bosnian kings talks of being ruler of Serbs and does not mention Croats), based on 1) and 2) Bosnian medieval state (that did not include west Bosnia) was state of Serbs
4) that based on study of someone named Karanovic, you expect that genetic tests of west most part of Bosnia that is inhabited by Bosnian muslims will show up different genetic relief due to big Anadolian admixture...
while I can see a possibility that 1-3 are correct, I do not believe that there ever was massive Anadolian admixture in any part of ex-Yugoslavia... if there is big difference to be expected in west most Bosnia compared to other part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, it is about possibly much larger percentage of R1a as the area is related to historic influence of Croats and as being part of north most Bosnia it is close to low lands of Slavonia which has much more R1a then the Dinaric mountain areas in southern parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina...
really,nice to know,but hey its good to have "always helpful Serb" to teach us stuff

:grin:
your allusions on verb "servare" as basis of Serb national name are pointless...
tribal names of Serbs and Croats are much older than Byzantine emperor who tried to interpret origin of tribal name Serbs based on latin language vocabulary, and in fact those tribal names are much older than Roman empire...
Serboi tribe we find in Caucasus in 1st century AD, and Seurbi in prehistoric pre-Celtic Indo-European Iberia ... Seurbi are likely to have arrived to Iberia from other parts of Europe together with neighboring Caladuni, as can be guessed from legend of orign of Scotish people (there is Caledonii tribe in Scotland and legend of arriving there from Iberia and to Iberia via ships from Scythia)...
there are also Sherdana people who were attacking ancient Egypt and whose name stayed recorded in single place name - Serbonian bog/Serbonis/Sirbonis...
in addition tribal name Serbs is probably of same root as the one for Pasthun Sarbans, as the same Byzantine emperor who hinted that origin of tribal name Serbs might be related to verb "servare", in one of his other works speaks of Sarbans and Krevatas in Caucasus...
so, Serb tribal name is obviously much older than being related to "serving" Byzantine emperor...
My guess is that tribal names of Serbs and Croats are related to ancient Serians and Hurians... In Asia minor, those names are recorded in myth of two bulls Seri and Hurri whose names had meaning "day" and "night"... which is strong reminder on strong mutual relation and opposite characters of Serb and Croat people...
btw. speaking of tribal names and origin of people and tribal names, historian
J.B. Bury has no doubt that Croatian legend of origin is same as the one of Bulgarians and is about same
Hunnic nation to which related tribes of Bulgars, Cotrigurs and Onogundurs belonged to...
http://books.google.com/books?id=wD...q=Tuga Buga Bury&pg=PA275#v=onepage&q&f=false
Turkish historian
Osman Karatay also speaks of
turkish origin of proto-Croats and identifies white-Croats with
white-Ogurs
http://books.google.com/books?id=h_...y&pg=PA73#v=onepage&q=Croats J.B.Bury&f=false
in fact,
Oghur ( = Og + Hur) and
H(u)rvat ( = Hur + vat) tribal names might both easily derive from same
"Hur" basis as in
Hurians..
note also: ak (turkic white = west) + Hur = AkHur = Oghur = west/white Hurians = white/west Croats
Oghur languages include Bulgar, Avar, Khazar, Hunnic and Chuvash languages...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oghur_languages
Btw. besides Magyars, another word used for Hungarians in Slavic countries is Ugri, which is same as Oghur... and proto-Magyars are non-IE speaking R1a people...
all this is an indication that proto-Croats (and proto-Magyars and proto-Bulgars) might origin from R1a people known as west Hurians or ak-Hur / Oghur people... so, who says Hunnic/Avar related nations has disappeared from Europe....
also Iapodos claimed on one of the topics that he was classifying in a genetic project last names of ex-Yugoslavia people based on distant origin and that his conclusion was that Croats with clear Croat origin mostly had R1a haplogroup...
now if we talk about mixing ottomans,well muslims in bosnia,they were probably most protected from ottoman law,and mixed with turks mainly for love or interest reasons.As for pool of ethinc turks in bosinia,it possible but not probable,1st it was unsafe for them to stay around,and 2nd they were already mixed to be called ethinc turks.
yes, I can agree that Bosnian muslims are in general genetically most pure Serbs as they also didnot mix so much with previous inhabitants (reason why they use word Vlah for orthodox Serbs of Bosnia is that orthodox Serbs have large admixture of previous inhabitants which is btw. visible in much larger percentage of haplogroup E)
I would also add that while most Bosnian muslims origin from proto-Serbs, Bosnian muslims and some Serb families of west Bosnia largely origin from proto-Croats, as west Bosnia was originally probably settled by proto-Croats...
thing is Serbs of today are genetically somewhat different from proto-Serbs who settled Balkan, and Croats of today are genetically somewhat different from proto-Croats who settled Balkan...
big problem with national identities on Balkan is that they are confused with religion.... so orthodox people are identified with Serbs, muslims with Bosnian muslims (or with recently invented ethnicity named Bosniacs) and catholics with Croats.... in reality, some of catholics origin from proto-Serbs, some of orthodox people from proto-Croats, and muslim people from both.... worth noting is that besides proto-Serbs and proto-Croats area of ex-Yugoslavia was also settled by numerous other Slavic tribes whose tribal names are not preserved...
so, only thing that can be done about that is to let everyone be what they feel they are... thus, there is not much point in claiming that e.g. Bosnian muslims are Serbs or Croats...
Opposed to serbs in serbia and bosina which were ottoman lackeys,and were under "law of 1st night" for 500 years.
genetic testings do not confirm existence of Turkish admixture in Serbia...
so, we can discard this fairy tale as urban myth...
