Cypriots are Middle easterner?

[Prince Carlo]

Hahah, you're an asshole. Are you accusing me that we're cherrypicking people? It's time for you to give me proof that South Italians are more European than us, and don't come with me with this Campanian bullshit. S.Italians are in fact more Levantine than us. Stop trying to take away (due to your strong inferiority complex) what is rightfully ours, which is our European identity.

ROFL-LMAO??? First of all South Italians are not homogeneus, so stop you with that shit. Campanians are closer to Tuscans than to Sicilians actually according to a recent published peer reviewed study, so STFU. Second what does make you think that you cluster more northern than us, when you are not even connected with mainland Europe?

I don't give a damn about who's homogenous or not, if Maltese people were homogenous we'd be all Neolithic people. I doubt any Southern Euro (Mediterranean) country is homogenous, anyway.

Y-Dna haplogroups were found at the following frequencies in Calabria : J2 (38.60%), R1 (33.40%), E1b1b (15.80%), G (10.50%), I (1.75%)

Y-Dna haplogroups are found at the following frequencies in Malta : R1 (35.55% including 32.2% R1b), J (28.90% including 7.80% J1), I (12.20%), E (11.10% including 8.9% E1b1b), F (6.70%), K (4.40%), P (1.10%)

Just for a comparison ^.


also, Italy overall:

R1b 49%, R1a 2.5%, l1 2.5%, l2a 3%, l2b 1%, J 20%, T 4%, G 7%, E3b 11%.

I'm sorry, due to the high J2 percentage in Italy, Italy is no more European. Please do not come up with separatist bullshit, now (specially because you're S.Italian and you'd be dishonouring yourself ).

Levantine is Levantine and Arab is Arab, just sayin'.

OK then. Levanto-euro mutts.

What's "Middle Eastern"?

You mean a person of Mediterranean phenotype living in the Middle East?

Well, Cyprus is Europe.

[Gospodine]

A lot of Greek Cypriots have recent Christian Lebanese ancestry; i.e. Marcos Baghdatis, Sarbel Michael.

In the 13th century the Maronite community on Cyprus was about 50,000 strong. They speak their own variety of Arabic: Cypriot Maronite Arabic.

Calabrians are bottlenecked so their haplogroups frequencies do not correlate with their autosomal Dna. The same is true for Maltese people. I am sorry to disappoint you, but Sicilians are more MENA shifted than us and there is no way in this dimension that you cluster more northern than Sicilians. That's that.

Autosomal DNA proof is there, it is your decision if you want to believe it or not.

There is no way I gonna take seriously a study with only 5 STRs.

The study doesn't say that 5 STR's were made, it says that 5 STR's were picked from the several ones that have been made used to make a comparison.

Stop playing dumb.

Phylogenic tree from analysis of 5 STRs between different populations

There is no contradiction in that. Picked or used are synonymous in this context.
