Y-DNA chart of 91 Turks (NEW)

[Hudayar]

I thought that Turks from Aydin are the most mongoloid in Turkey.

Aydın is around 14%. Actually they're in the average.

The most mongoloid Turk i saw was around 18-19% and he was from Çanakkale (Gallipoli). And there was a sample from Muğla who scored identical to that.

I have no idea how I1 could gone in Turkey

From Normans wich were in Byzantine army.

Only a minority has it. Maybe it's due to Balkan migration who knows. Some samples were from Edirne etc.

Point is that this is not very represented in Balkan too.

You are 15,45 mongoloid, do you have some recent central Asian ancestors?

here's a Turk with recent Central Asian heritage

he's around 35-40% Mongoloid

More surprising is that it's higher than I2. Interestingly, Turks and Balkanites aren't alike at all, especially after all those Devshirmes and Janissaries. Eastern Europeans or Balkanites aren't genetically closer to Turks than rest of Europe.

It seems that you are right, according to this genetic analyses.

But Eastern European logically are not genetically close to Turks.

Not only genetic analyses but also my personal experience. Slavic phenotype is VERY atypical in Turkey. Dark pigmentation is common among balkanites but even that doesn't help. I have a Bosniak classmate (his family is a Yugoslavian civil war refugee), and i swear even some Irishmen have better chance of passing Turkish than him. It doesn't make any sense though.

I haven't been in Balkans yet, i talk according to what i see from Turkey.

[Marmara]

I didn't mean Eastern Europeans are genetically closer to Turks, i meant that logically Eastern Europeans would be less alien than rest of Europeans (except Southerns) in Turkey, and simply would have more genetic impact (due to geography and history)

Anatolian Turks and Finns have similar percentage of autosomal mongoloid DNA, both are 10-15% mongoloids on average.

Yeah this is known. that's also why we have a special crush on Finns among all Europeans
