A Genetic Study on 16 Turks from Different Parts of Turkey

Thus 'Turks' of Turkey largely have almost nothing in common with real Turks. The whole idea of an nation 'Turkey' goes back to Fascists, and is the biggest lie of all of this lousy plannet. Give back 'Turkey' to its Greek, Kurdish, Armenian, Caucasian, ..., real owners!

Turks are victim of immigration and religious solidarity. Crusaders, Mongols, Armenians, Byzantines couldn't deal with and stop Turks, but when the religious opiate is given, things dramatically change. That's how it is.

Are you dumb?

East Eurasian admixture in Turks depends a lot, some Turks have almost 0, others are around 15%, would be nice to get samples from Turkic Turks only and compare since Turkey is also full of non-Turkic immigrants and citizens

well, yes indeed it depends. but median average is around 12-15% as far as i know. But i imagine some Turks from specific places (Muğla, Giresun) and isolated villages could score way higher than the median average i think.

Isn't Erzurum partly Kurdish and (was) Armenian?

Trabzon is full of Laz people afaik but I could be wrong.

Erzurum is actually unique, historically speaking Turkmen tribes (for example, Dodurga, Avşar etc) did settle in Erzurum. But there were a lot of Armenians and Kurds only lived in the south of Erzurum. But Trabzon is a notorious case. And no it's not because they're Laz, Lazes are/were a minority in Trabzon. People from Trabzon could be the original Greeco-Anatolians who inhabitated Anatolia before Turks came.

"16 turks"
Instantly disregarded.
If you wanna make a serious study, better should use a bigger n value (aka. use more participants. 16 is laughable. Especially seen as ONE PERSON is supposed to stand for an entire region)
