North Eastern Turk DNA Tribes Ancestral fit

You're not necessarily close to Armenians, even Hemshins are closer to Lazes than Armenians also.

Idk if I'm missing something but how come Lazes have Greek-Trabzon as their second match while Greek-Trabzon have Armenians over Lazes?

Same with the Hemshenis. If Hemshenis are closer to Lazes than to Armenians, and Trabzon Turks/Greeks are closer to Hemshenis than to Armenians, how come Trabzon Turks/Greeks aren't closer to Lazes than to Armenians?

It differs from person to person. For example i can be modeled better as half pontic greek half circassian than half trabzon turk half circassian, therefore my mom is closer to pontic greek average than to trabzon turks. But she is a Trabzon Turk. My mom's cousin is much closer to laz and hemsheni people than to trabzon greek or trabzon turks. It differs from person to person because they are really close to each others.

And in your post you can see the Laz and Armenian distances are really close, nearly same.

The distances are very minimal, they are all similar population genetically.

Well phenotype is genotype. Genes control all phenotype attributes. This genotype not equalling phenotype BS was started by people whose shitty calculators were not able to detect admixtures that caused the phenotype in the individual.

Populations are not as homogeneous as what those idiots will have you believe. Clustering programs are horrible in divulging older or minor admixtures

Finally someone who understands shit a bit, there are few enviromental factors though like height being controlled in big part by nutrition etc, but phenotype mostly depends on genotype.

Hmm, yes. I guess we should also take into consideration that Armenians from Armenia reside in Caucasus and are shifted towards Caucasus unlike let's say a western Armenian. All demographics and historical accounts taken into consideration I think it's safe to say North Eastern Turks are closer to Lazes and similar to modern day Armenians and not that similar to western "original" Armenians.

Colchis weren't light skinned though, they were depicted pretty much as niggers.

Armenian, Laz, Greek, Georgian etc living in the areas mentioned are just cultural, ethnic identities and have nothing to do with alleles. They all originate from the same gene pool and represent but nuances, shades of the same colour. It's only natural that the proximity approximations differ from individual to individual. Two brothers can have two different closest ethnicities from the same and surrounding regions.

Lighter compared to Armenians and even Greeks if we are to look at the descendants. Also the Heredotus's claim that Colchian people looked like Egyptians stuff comes from Sesotris's Egyptian army in the region, not from the native Colchians.
