Phenotypical Differences between Slavic Macedonians and Bulgarians.

[Novi Pazar]

Unfortunately "ethnic" Macedonians (Slavic speaking Orthodoxes) are autosomally closer to Greeks than to Serbs, and quite closer to Aromanians, Bulgarians, Gagauzes, Albanians etc. than to Serbs.

Greeks have a higher ratio of Y DNA E and J, this is confirmed from Martin Bernal’s book Black Athena. A Kosovo Serb like me would be very distant to a Dalmatian Serb like you Varda?

According to ‘Zgonjanin’ a Southern Serb like me has an incidence of E-V13 at approx 30%, higher than both Macedonians, Bulgarians and Aromanians. It seems that Southern Serbs are very similar to Montenegrins, genetically speaking than to Dalmatians and Bosnians, whom in my opinion are the purest Slavs with a highest ratio of I2a. I think the ‘heartland’ of EV13 is Northern Albania, Montenegro, Serbian Kosovo and South Serbia.

My point being, regionally Southern Serbs would also be distant ‘unfortunately’ to Dalmatian and Bosnian Serbs too……

From my observation North Macedonians have more alpinids , Bulgarians have more pontids, CM and Gorids.
