GEDmatch results of a Turk from South-Eastern Anatolia

[Hudayar]

Is he from Kahramanmaraş?

No

[Leto]

nope. he's actually average, average mongoloid dna for Turks is around 11-15%

I thought more like 5-7% or so. Why is the Western part the darkest? That contradicts the idea of supposed mass assimilation of Greeks and Balkan Slavs.

5% is not the average actually for TURKS. But it could be the average for TURKEY. Turks often score a lot more than 5%.

In this study for example Turks (Including one Kurd and one guy from Artvin) are between 5%-21.7% Asian



Turks from Aydın compared to Istanbul Turks and "National Average"

And about Western Turks scoring more Asiatic dna than other Turks, i really don't know. But as far as i know Mongols pushed Turkmen tribes to Western Anatolia from Eastern and Central Anatolia. Maybe that could be the reason.

In that link for example the most mongoloid Turk is from Western Turkey (Sakarya, 16-18% mongoloid). I think i have to read more about Turkish history to find out why Western Turks are more "pure" compared to other Turks.

Where is he from? Adiyaman? Most of the Turks there have meddish anatolid faces with some slight asian admix which gaves them a softer faces .


How would you classify the people in this video??? Iranid,Med with turanid admixture

to be honest i'm not good at classifiying so i can't say anything

and no he's not from Adıyaman.

btw AFAIK Adıyaman is Kurdish-Turkish mixed city.


edit: i didn't watch the video, i said AFAIK Adıyaman (the city) is Kurdish-Turkish mixed.

Uzbeks from Tashkent are just Tajiks imo.
