Bulgarians 40% Slav on average

[Hrvoje Vukčić Hrvatinić]

Bohemian Slav RISE569 was partially Celto-Germanic (admixture from Pre-Slavic population of Bohemia assimilated by Slavs) and RISE568 is a low quality sample.

There are no any good Early Slavic samples so far.

Culturally Avar samples were used by some TA members, what about them ? I don't even think we need actual ancient samples, some modern groups would do.

Maybe one of them - Av2 - was unmixed Slavic, but it is hard to say for sure.

Pre-Slavic inhabitants of Bulgaria were certainly not Cypriot like. More proximate samples are needed before any assumptions are made.

yeah but i don't see why they should be much more northern than them. We have Iron Age dna from Bulgaria actually and this are the populations he was closest to

And this was before the Roman period when many people from the Eastern Mediterranea came into the region

We have Iron Age dna from Bulgaria actually

I uploaded this sample to GEDmatch:

We got early Slav samples from Bohemia and Avar-Slavic ones, also Iron Age Bulgarian so it shouldn't be too hard to make nMonte model. Add Bulgars and Myceneans in the mix if they are available.

As far as i know we have two early Slavs from Avar Hungary and two from Slavic Bohemia. One was West Slavic-like and the other Belarusian-like. In Slavic Bohemia one was also West Slavic-like and other more Baltic-shifted. So i would say that Proto-Slavs were East Polish/South Belarusian-like and that very much fits archaeology and linguistics which pinpoint the slavic homeland somewhere in northern Ukraine/Belarus (Kiev culture)

The Slavic Avar fits better than Slavic_Bohemia, but the difference isn't very statistically significant. Adding Mycenaeans improves the fit considerably.

40% Slavic doesn't seems to be that far from reality, actually they probably have even more (too much shared IBD with Northeast Europeans).

[Peterski]

Balto-Slavs were probably originally the same.

"Originally" - probably true, but that was during the Bronze Age.

During the Late Iron Age they were probably already different.

Ok, but anyway seem Bulgarians are like half Slav and I made this thread when some Azeri wog said they have no NE Euro ancestry at all compared to Aryan Tajiks LMFAO




Genetic research is Red Pill for deniers of massive Slavic rape orgy and colonisation of the Balkans.

[Peterski]

Mycenaeans are too early to use them in this model IMO. We need more of Iron Age and Roman Era ancient samples.

In 500 AD (the beginning of Slavic Invasion of the Balkans) genetically Mycenaean-like populations no longer existed.

Try using only Av2 instead of average of both Avar samples, probably the fit will improve (because Av1 was less Slavic).

Balkans_IA is just one sample anyway, so no difference. But Avar_Hungary_Szolad is average of two samples, AFAIK.
