We are similar to those in Romania genetically, but culturally there are regional differences. That's normal.Quote:

No idea, as I never asked, but if I were to guess, I'd say a mix of Wallachia with Transylvania or Moldavia, where Wallachian samples were dominant.Quote:

I remember how at county-level contests during high-school we immediately made friends when we gathered in Suceava or other place, the youth from Ukrainian-speaking villages, and that's when I was surprised to see Ukrainian youth from outside the mountains (near Suceava) still speaking it natively, and some of those villages show nothing (<100 or so) in the census. another good example is Milisauti, which is a town now I think, where many people speak Ukr but are Romanian at the census. I met a young doctor our age from there, I mentioned that I know the village was historically Ukr and he was able to speak in native local dialect without any problem. I had asked him about roots because of his last name, of Boyko origin like mine.
the rest of Ukrainians are in Dobrudja (native Hohols) and in Banat (not native to Banat, all are Rusyns and Hutsuls transferred by Communists from Maramures and Bucovina).
you can check the Union's website for events and such - with Russian you should be able to understand Ukrainian, they're dialects of the same Rus' language after all xD
uur.ro
also, keep in mind that the Maramures-Suceava Ukrainian settlement is a continuum, villages are not scattered among Romanian villages like in Rep. Moldova so the mixing only started very recently, in the last generation (my age), otherwise the people had their entire region of a few hundred villages and hamlets to marry in. and we had yearly gatherings that now are transformed into generic festivals but back then were to discuss business (cattle and hay and potato xD) and marriage and see relatives and friends from far villages.
Any guesses on her ancestry with K13? From Timisoara
expired
^^^^ Hungarian?
in Timisoara she can be anything, if she's not Romanian ethnic (she totally passes as one also), but if smth else, most likely: Hungarian, German, Serb, Ukrainian (of those moved from MM & SV counties), in this order. Gorid?
Half Roma, Half Romanian; that's why phenotypes can be trashy in predicting someone's ancestryQuote:

Romanian-b (Behar) from Harrapaworld is full Gypsy (25% South Indian)
And she gets modelled best as:
Using 2 populations approximation:
1 50% romanian-b_behar +50% serbian_harappa @ 4.086702
Wow, amazing. She looks totally central European, common face in Croatia as well. Never, never would have guessed that. She looks more mainstream European than average full Balkanite.
