Autosomal results of ancient Dacians from modern Hungary.

[Voskos]

The said ancients are from Hungary but I think we can assume they were either Dacians or at least closely related to Dacians going by maps like the one below:

Here's their results:

Iron Age(980-830BC, YDNA N-M231)

Looks like J2a was an important Balkan haplogroup, found in the Minoans, Mycenaeans, and Dacians. Also, the first sample really doesnt seem too dissimilar from modern Romanians.

Interesting how the Copper Age sample has low amounts of North_Sea, Baltic and Eastern_Euro components, while the Bronze and Iron Age ones have a lot. Bronze age Indo-European invaders clearly changed the genetic landscape profoundly.

Iron Age sample plots nowhere near modern Romanians, more like northern Hungarians..

Here are the three ancient samples from Hungary on a PCA:

Iron Age sample is IR1 of Mezocsat culture:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Hungary_before_the_Hungarian_Conquest

It was not a Dacian culture, it was also Pre-Scythian:

"The people of the Mezőcsát culture to which IR1 belonged are thought to have been from ancient Iranian tribes."

He could be a Cimmerian, but it is not certain:

"Some prehistorians have argued that the eastern artefact types and the eastern burial rite of the Early Iron Age in the Danube–Tisza region are proof of the westward migration of a Cimmerian group. However, the Cimmerians were but one of the many groups populating the steppe and thus the identification of this eastern population with a specific steppean people is no more than speculation."

If Scythian from Hungary is on Gedmatch now?
