Serbia and Albania appears to have the lowest Neanderthal admixture

[Giovanni Carli]

from Eupedia: "In Europe, the region of Serbia and Albania appears to have the lowest Neanderthal admixture, in the continuity of the Levant and Egypt. This would be consistent with the higher percentage of the African haplogroup E1b1b"

any albanian or serbian or balkan who could confirm the hypotesis? what's your 23andMe Neanderthal score?


PS: last post about the issue I know i'm a bit boring..

Lol Maciamo, guy is a fucking moron.

[DRUM]

I got 2.6%, 37th percentile among European users

[Highlands]

Similar levels in central/south italy I think?

I think so (but i'm from north).

[Pjeter Pan]

Bs, most of the albos I have on 23andme have like 2.8% and more. At least 3 have over 3%


Thou mines is only 2.4%

Lol

Are you him ? :D

Are you him ? :D
I'm just an italian :)

I just have to accept the fact that my strange allele frequency for some snp described sa Neanderthal put me in a (very) minority european category. That's all.

The Neanderthal percentage estimates 23and me gives are incorrect anyways read this article in it is a link to the paper: http://www.fi.id.au/2013/08/1-4-of-neanderthal-dna-in-eurasians-is.html
The 2-4% is the genetic ifference between Eurasians and Sub saharan Africans so it gives a false result,
the current news articles exclaiming that Asians have more Neanderthal can be explined as asians having the least genetic similarity to Africans, in John Hawks blog it shows Europeans as having the highest Neanderthal percentage specificaly Tuscans.

E1b1 that peaks among northern albanians and southern servs ( and parts of greece where albanians settled) has nothing to do with north africans, how many times does this issues need to be explained here for people with autism problems? E1b1 in Balkans belongs to Ev-13 branch which is the european branch divided from E1b1 30,000 years ago and arrived in europe basically 14-12,000 years ago ( much earlier that other european haplogroups), some even say that Ev-13 was born in balkans.

Ev-13 is mostly found only in balkans and in some cases in levant and other parts of europe that have to do with settling of illyrian soldiers there or albanian mercenaries ( like the case of illyrian soldiers in Britain.)

Anyway, both servs and albanians have average neanderthal scores for europeans, not less.
Ev-13 is found almost only in balkans

He might be correct. I am Albanian and I score very low Neanderthal % for a European, the same with many other Albanians.

[Skerdilaid]

Yes he is correct. I am Albanian and I score very low Neanderthal % for a European, the same with many other Albanians.

The member Viking already mentioned what I wanted to say on regards to Neanderthal %. However, that Maciamo is autistic imbecile is a fact. Here is another one of his gems:


Thanks for posting this, Garrick. It looks like Albanian language might be a hybrid of Indo-European and pre-IE. The pre-IE component surely comprises words from some Mesolithic/Neolithic North African language of the Afroasiatic family. The distribution of Afroasiatic languages matches almost perfectly that of haplogroup E1b1b in Africa.

There are theories that Albanians descend from the Egyptians. Obviously this is true to some extent, considering that haplogroup E1b1b came to Europe via Egypt. Rather than going along the coast of the Levant and Anatolia, Neolithic E1b1b settlers could have travelled by sea and crossed the Mediterranean straight from Egypt to Greece/Albania. However it happened, the Neolithic cultures of the Balkans (often referred to as "Old Europe") display some strong affinities (pottery, villages) with those of North and North-East Africa.

Exactly lol Him as Italian should be the last one to speak of Egyptian and Carthaginian ancestry.
