Are you sure?

and in eurogenes k15 ancient ? :thinking:
you know that my true ancestery use the eurogenes k15 tool :smile:
anyway could be differences between apulian and calabrian and Sicilian groups :thinking:( from historical reason MESSAPIANS and others etc....)

thanks salento :good_job:
so i guess greek islanders are the one that cluster with the IA ARDEA outlier R850:thinking:


this is mine with k15 ancient ( which is my true ancestery tool )

Iron Age Gaul

- English : 8.2
Thracians

- North Italians : 8.7
Maciamo, my mother got a distance of 6.212 to a Gaul (I don't know which Gaul though, if there're more than one). She's full Venetian in ancestry (I consider some far Western Pordenonesi as "Venetians" too).
And my father got a distance of 7.724 to a Thracian. He's basically 75% Venetian (with irrelevant traces from Friuli) and 25% Eastern Lombard in ancestry.

Could you send me the exact result as MTA tends to mislabel a lot of samples. I have seen North Italian matches to "Cisalpine Gauls" who in fact dated from the Dark Ages.

Ok. I'll try to upload her results again later, to see what we get.

Yes, mother's Gaul seems to be from Dark Ages, because:

I'm 75% Czech and 25% German, but all of my closest samples are associated with Czechia, either historically or through closest modern population. However, I'll also try to convince my 100% Czech father to take a DNA test as well to confirm. I also added my top 99% samples as some of those I highly doubt you will find an individual under the genetic distance of 10.
The Lugii, Pre-Slav Poland, Bell Beaker Haunstetten Germany 1873 BC (date is important), Bronze Age Vatya Hungary (1750 BC), Oxford Infirmiary (1790 AD), and Boii (obviously) samples have Boii associated with one of their closest ancient civilizations. In case you don't know, the name Bohemia came from the name Boiohaemum (first mentioned by Tacitus), with Boi coming from the Boii and haemum being latinized German from the old German word haimaz or home, to create the name meaning 'Boii home'. The name was based on German because at this time the Marcomanni, Quadi, and Lugii already had a confederation set up in the region.

Thanks. Since your ancestry is from French/Belgian Flanders I am going to list you among Belgians. In fact your data fits completely within the Belgian range.

OK ;)
But still no Belgae ! :wary2:

Another interesting find. Samples from the Urnfield culture in Hungary are closest to modern Kosovars and Albanians. The Urnfield culture existed during the turbulent period of the Bronze Age collapse in the East Mediterranean with the invasions of the Sea Peoples. It owes its name to the practice of cremation that replaced the Indo-European tradition of tumulus/kurgan burial. The Urnfield culture superimposed itself other Late Bronze Age cultures such as Hallstatt around the Alps and Proto-Villanova in Italy, and as such can be seen as a foreign element mixing with Indo-European cultures. It is conceivable that this is the period when Y-haplogroup E-V13 and J2b-L283 (both peaking around Kosovo and Albania today) spread around central Europe - though not necessarily from Kosovo/Albania.

Urnfield culture (Hungary, 1300-750 BCE)

- Kosovars : 7.7
- Tosk Albanians : 7.9
- Tuscans : 8.4
- North Italians : 9.7
- Bulgarians : 9.9

Another major surprise of all is that the Vandals only cluster around modern British and Irish people and not with any modern Germanic country. Their closest match are the Irish, which suggests a predominantly Celtic ancestry. Yet the Vandals are usually considered to be an East Germanic tribe. Could it be that they were actually Germanised Celt? They originated in southern Poland and it has been hypothesised that they were part of the Lugii tribe, whose DNA also turns out closest to Welsh and Irish people.

Your findings about Kosovars being close to Hungarian urnfield culture has also historical merit. Ancient Greeks wrote that Illyrians came from central Europe, which is exactly where Hungary is. And DNA is proving just that. The only thing I disagree is describing L 283 and E-v13 as foreign element to Indo-European culture. The presence of L283 in Dalmatia dates 3600 yrs which makes it very European. You also contradict another posting of yours where you say that E v13 and L283 are Indo-European haplogroups for the reason of their spread. They are present even in the areas where G is missing, and this haplogroup homogenous spread around Europe can be explained only through this two haplogroups being part of Indo-European people.

I think that you are confusing European and Indo-European. E-V13 and J2b-L283 have not been found in the Yamna culture, nor in the Corded Ware, Unetice or among Bell Beaker samples that had Steppe DNA. These were all R1b, I2 and R1a.

There is no doubt that E-V13 appeared in Europe, most probably somewhere between Germany and western Ukraine, apparently around 2800 BCE based on the age estimate for its formation. But that was in Late Neolithic or Chalcolithic Europe and as a lineage descending from the farmers of Old Europe. It is only between 2000 BCE and 1000 BCE, during the Middle to Late Bronze Age (hence possibly the Urnfield culture) that it started a major expansion, diversifying into many clades.

J2b-L283 is even older, but also underwent a major expansion as J-Z597>Z2507 from 2200 BCE and again from 1600 BCE. If I remember correctly, the oldest attested J2b-L283 in Europe was in Croatia c. 1600 BCE.

Therefore, it is possible that at least part of the story regarding the expansion of both haplogroups around Europe took place during the Urnfield expansion, joining the Late Bronze Age Indo-European cultures in Europe and therefore being present in subsequent Iron Age cultures.

They originated in southern Poland and it has been hypothesised that they were part of the Lugii tribe, whose DNA also turns out closest to Welsh and Irish people.

I showed you my genetic distance relative to the Lugii sample and I have absolutely 0% Vandal.
Closest Ancient of Lugii:
Boii + Ostrogoth (9.418)
Viking Danish + Boii (9.637)
Scythian + Boii (11.18)
Belgae + Boii (11.5)
Belgae + Scythian (12.25)
Boii (13.32)
Ostrogoth (14.81)
Belgae (15.76)
Viking Danish (16.42)
Scythian (16.63)
Closest Samples to the Lugii:
Pre-Slav Medieval Poland (950 AD) (6.582)
Oxford Infirmiary (1790 AD) (9.581)
Iron Age Ingria (130 AD) (10.47)
Viking St. Brice Massacre Oxford (1002 AD) (10.71)
Iron Age Trundholm Denmark (670 BC) (11.34)
I can't comment on similar samples or populations to the Vandals because, as mentioned before, I do not match with any of them.

p.s. I always thought that E-V13 may have initially spread with the Vinca culture or Pre-Vinca culture as it has a high affinity for Kosovo and Serbia, a E1b1bsomthing haplogroup was found from a Linear Potter Culture sight (can't find the link yet), and the distribution makes it look like it spread up the Danube, just like the earliest farmers would have done as they needed the fertile loess. However, yes, it may have also did some spreading during the Urnfield.



 
I think I have seen a vandal in a sample but now I don't remember, I'm going to look.
 
Don't mean to distract from the intention of this thread, but a slight edit to my last post.
I did not realize that there were multiple Lugii samples. So, the 3 Lugii samples that I know of now are PCA103, PCA100, and PCA89. Don't know if there are more. I was able to run a 3D PCA for Lugii PCA89 even though I don't have it unlocked, and it appeared that some of the closer samples were Medieval Piedmont (CL57), North Central Lombard (CL63), and SZ38 (Bronze Age Hungary?). PCA100 seamed to be the most common match as it is now gets the closest matches in western Europe. On this sample you can get a genetic distance of 9.462 and still only be in the top 82% or get 11.53 and only be in the top 69%, relative to PCA103's closest modern population distance of 18.12. I do not match with PC100, but it seemed like the people that do have a lot of Lombard matches. At this period in time (300AD) the Lombards were located directly to the west of the Lugii. I don't know why PCA103 appears to be the only Lugii sample associated with the Boii and PreSlav Poland that I know of and is way off track from the other ones. However, my best guesses or hypothesis are that either PCA103 was a Marcomanni or Quadi that joined the Lugii or that PCA89 and PCA100 were actually Lombards living with the Lugii. Either that or the Lugii tribe had a tremendous amount of genetic diversity in its ranks. Please correct me if I am wrong as I don't have PCA100 or PCA89 unlocked.
Thank You,
