Video Series on Viking Ancient DNA

[PopGenetics]

I'm starting a series on the ancient Viking DNA from Margaryan 2020 (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2688-8#Sec34).

I've made one video so far. I plan on posting two more videos tomorrow. I'll add the links to each video on this page when I complete them. Subscribe and hit the bell to watch my upcoming videos.

I'll subscribe to your channel if it provides a non-liberal view on genetics.

Trust me it will. Wait for my video on immigration in Viking age Scandinavia and the "Do modern Scandinavians come from Viking age Scandinavians" video, you'll see what I mean.

Thanks, i know you post on Eurogenes.

Are you planning to make a video on France from what I've been told?

That is a good idea. One of the things I will do on my channel is randomly include vidoes on the origins of populations. I will eventually make a video on France about how much Celtic, Roman, Germanic ancestry it has. It is clear France is majority Celtic but other than that the details are hard to know as for one thing the Celts of France were definitely not all the same. There is not enough ancient DNA from France to say much confidently other than that. Another thing I would say is that the similarity between West Germany and East France, is mainly due to Celtic/French ancestry in Germany not Germanic ancestry in France.

There will soon be a genetic study coming out according to a friend of mine, he said: « "PopGen project: genetic architecture of the French population" from March 2022 normally, they will even use old DNA from what I heard »
