@ununitedstates @Paslongfeu @monebadass l don't know probably @nrken19 . It's amateur geneticism but the dna comes from david reichs laboratory, the ADNA tools too (ancient dna tools). If you require peer reviewed actual studies then this is one that looks at the andronovo https://t.co/IYdQmIScBm

You speak the English language, are of a group colonized by the English who in turn were subverted by Jews? Bottom of the foodchain?

@HistorySami Finally, our data indicate that at the Bronze and Iron Age timeframe, south Siberians were blue (or green)-eyed, fair-skinned and light-haired people and that they might have played a role in the early development of the Tarim Basin civilization. https://t.co/z7Ux86Xoqh

@NiklasForberg @Steve_Sailer That may be correct. However, I believe the DNA evidence shows that Indo-Europeans in Siberia had blonde hair and blue eyes. Probably we need more samples to get a more conclusive answer. https://t.co/KAhKtgD0Vh
