Picts origins, genetically found out

[Anglo-Celtic]

Are you saying that "Ulster Scots" have Irish passports? Also passports indicate nothing about ancestry. All passports indicate is what country you are a citizen of.

I'm referring to nationality. I'm referring to citizens, with Scots-Irish ancestry, who live in Ireland, so this ain't exactly brain surgery.

I am merely expressing my opinion.

It's all good. I'm just kidding around with you.

It was always obvious that Picts were just like other Insular Celtic populations. All Insular Celtic populations have the same origin.

Do you think the later Irish Iron Age would score like the Picts and North Britons in that they are more much more bronze age like, whereas southern Britain IA became more mixed from Continent?


I've forgotten if the Bronze age Irish and later iron age where close to the same thing.

It's been a while since I read Lara Cassidy's thesis on the subject. I would have to reread but yes I think the Iron Age Irish were closer to the Bronze Age Irish so the Picts would be close to them also. From memory around the Iron Age there was some migration from Britain. I'll have to reread that thesis again.
