I think the 100 samples group is much better, and I have regional origins information for each of these 100 samples. Tomorrow I will split them and calculate regional averages.
All of them are from towns in present-day Armenia, but maybe some of these towns are populated by descendants of West Armenians?
PS:
Judging by high similarity to Turkish Trabzon, the sample of 35 Armenians is probably from somewhere close to the Black Sea (or at least a large part of this sample is from there)?
And the Southwest Armenian sample is from areas close to the Mediterranean Sea.
