Genetic distance by inferred ancestral population
[TD="colspan: 7"][/TD]
Lithuanian reference population is the closest to Georgia based on K6 made by Razib Khan.
As we know Georgians have one of the most CHG/Caucasus like admixture, i would consider the possibility the Caucasus and North European like components share a common ancestral origin which would correlates with linguistic and culture if we consider Georgian is one of the oldest unique Ind-European language and i would go as far to say the majority of West Eurasians excluding the Semitic speakers share a common North Caucasian-Southern Steppe origin.
I'd also add Georgians have significant Iran Neolithic admixture component which might be the ancestor of all Indo-Aryan/Hindu Kush civillizations from Kurdistan to North India.
