Wrong. West Asian peaks in Georgians i.e Northern Caucassians who incidentily look European.Quote:

percent.
Saudi Arabians have significant % of the Mediterranean component but that doesn't make them European because they have other admix which is not found in Europe.
I consider Georgians to be European.
Stalin sure wasn't Asian.
North Caucasians lack Med and Southwest Asian that are Southern components.They do score some Northern European and that's why they can be European in appearance. Anyway basing on looks alone is not a way to judge a persons race. I can show you many Euro looking Syrians and Persians, it doesn't make them European.Quote:

Actually Saudis South West Asian component is found in Europe.Quote:

Do you read what you write? 19 Greeks represent the total population of Greece?Quote:

I never said you are not Europeans for the hundredth time. I just said Greeks carry non European DNA and it is significant (38%). Its almost 1/3 of your ancestry.I don't care when you got this West Asian admixture point is it is present in your genes.
Yes, me too, even my self, during summer(and not only) we are often suntanned.Quote:
And please stop exaggerating your skin tone, I have seen plenty of swarthy Greeks.
Aris Poulianos(Anthropologist)
"The 90% of the persons we studied have WHITE SKIN COLOR. Rarely someone meets dark skin color and even more rarely very dark skin color. Very light skin color is met more often than dark skin color."
"The origin of the Greeks", page 69, year 2001.
Well then how many people must be tested?! None of the reference samples are that much. Even Turks that are in the project are around 25.Quote:

I told you that haplogroups are small percentage of our ancestry, significant is autosmal DNA.
Also if a populations haplogroup is African in origin it means they come from that line of people long time ago but it doesn't mean they are African because haplogroups are not that significant.
It is a non European (Asian) caucasoid component.
According to the first graph, W/SW Asian admixture seems to predominate (at or over 50%) among some Greeks.
