Are English people Indo-Iranians?

[Bosniensis]

Scythians are also known as Saka people (by Persians).

So, Sons of Saka are Sakasons or Saxons.

Can we say that they are Indo-Iranic group of people?

Also many treasures have been found in England which are Scythian in origin:

Anyway what's the difference between Indo Iranic and Indo European people if Scythians themselves were considered Iranic?

All of this might sound stupid for someone who understand but I don't.

No, they're all Indo-Europeans, not Indo-Iranians. And Indo-European languages were spread in Asia by Europeans.

Indo-Iranians:

R1a,r1b,q,n and some subclades of e,j2.

i think (just my opinion) bashkirs and hungarians are distant cousins.

They are in the same branch with Indo-Iranians but not Indo-Iranians proper.

The powers that be have over complicated history as to obscure making lineages traceable to biblical lineages. So many “olden times” Europeans recounted Iranic origins. There were Waves of folks out of Cyrus’ empire, stuff from Medes, and parthians. The automatic reaction now is “eh, those people were full of shit/wrong/desperate to connect to other historical people, etc.

R1b is Scythian and goes straight to Magog. I’m not yet 100% sure where R1a goes back to- probably Sarmata. Either Madai or Mescech possibly?

They really have high Gedrosia on Eurogenes K12b. Is that a sign?
