Irish have Spanish Admixture

[Beowulf]

I'm not really smart when it comes to g25 genetic populations, but how closed are Irish to Basques? Basques are genetically distance than Castilians so maybe that would make a difference shifted?

Quite Distant:

Distance to:	Basque_Spanish
0.07632921	Irish

Basques to castillians:

Distance to:	Basque_Spanish
0.04040912	Spanish_Castilla_Y_Leon

You're a disgusting racist old cat lady and liar. You hopeless and a coward.

Projection and you tell me to calm down.

I don't not post on here to be personally attacked. Discuss among yourselves and this is the excuse I need to have a long break from this forum.

You made me so angry I spilled my Coca Cola all over my desk and took dog for walk

She doesn't hate Spaniards. You're a troll.


This is what I do to trolls, and high-functioning autists. I'll ankle pick you, bro,

Also you have to factor in that there is very little R1b-DF27 in the Irish and in Bronze Age samples they were all R1b-L21. What DF27 is in Ireland was brought in by later populations such as the Normans etc.



I'm quite happy for people to post on this topic but I always am intrigued why this connection is so strong despite the evidence. Another thing is that autosomally the Irish are the most distant to Iberian populations out of English, Scots and Welsh so why is this a recurring theme? As someone pointed out before even the Dutch are closer but it is a persistent theme. I think I could expand on this but interested in what others have to say? (Without the Trolls thank you).

This is why Grace is my go-to forum member on these kinds of subjects. She explains things better than anybody too.

You should calm down a bit, doth protest too much. Spain influence on Ireland is not an open and shut case and I doubt you have all the answer regardless of how well versed you are on Ireland. Not to get personal but Gixajo right and anyone with half a brain knows you want to disassociate yourself with us dreaded WOGs. You come across like a immature teen girl that with your "ewww, gross swarth Spanish comparing themselves to me, Irish Princess!" We're sick of you and your retarded prejudice and we see through your act. Don't play dumb either. You need serious help but the incels in here don't have the balls to tell you.

We'll stick to a Spanish theme. Pamplona has less excrement, when the bulls run, than your post has in it. I'm no simp or white knight. You just sound like a psychic with paranoia when you ascribe ulterior motives to someone who's "just the facts", so maybe "you can't handle the truth!"

That there was some small Spanish genetic input thrown in into the Irish gene pool because of the incident of the Spanish armada, is possible, but there have always been genetic interactions like that between different European populations, and between many other human groups. It can also be pointed out some Spanish genetic input to have been thrown in into the Dutch gene pool following the Spanish occupation of the Netherlands, or some small genetic Scandinavian influx into Portuguese, Spanish or Italian gene pools following Viking raids.

In the case of those Spaniards from the Spanish armada who ended their days in Ireland and intermingled with the Irish natives, they might have left some Spanish genetic traces into the Irish population, but that probably was like a drop in an ocean, I guess.
