The Genetic Origins of Blond Hair and Blue Eyes in Europe
This video explores the genetic origins of blond hair and blue eyes. It details the link between the HERC2 gene mutation and eye color variation, alongside the spread of these traits across Europe, particularly in Scandinavia and northeast regions.
Genetic Insights into Mesolithic Scandinavian Migrations and Adaptations
This study analyzes genomes of Mesolithic hunter-gatherers in Scandinavia, revealing complex migration routes and high-latitude adaptations, including genetic traits for environment adaptation that influence modern populations.

@KroonenGuus (Twitter)@IamKarsten In Nederland waren ze ongetwijfeld donker, al hebben we geen aDNA. In Scandinavië mengden WHG en EHG en vond daarna evolutionaire selectie plaats voor lichte huidskleur. Het typisch Noord-Europese uiterlijk is dus toen al deels ontstaan, vanaf 8.000 j.g. https://t.co/bmL2eS6mnR

@Jeannedrogyne (Twitter)@2Bootz9 According to Günther (2018) EHG were brown coloured with white skin. While WHG showed the pigmentation more associated with modern Nordic populations and SHG of yore. https://t.co/HF9H1doe7e https://t.co/IPLpM6Bgzm

@_felipe_c_ (Twitter)@AStrinnholm Jag har intresserat mig för populationsgenetik. Vilken grupp är det mest korrekt att beskriva som ättlingar till de första invånarna i Sverige? Samer eller svenskar? Forskning jag läser visar att det är betydligt mer korrekt för svenskar. https://t.co/ElpcHpBszB https://t.co/oGuWjrpSmA

@_felipe_c_ (Twitter)@Ivarpi @evin_rubar @RichardJomshof Enligt rådande forskning är svenskar ättlingar till de grupper som först befolkade Skandinavien. I den meningen är svenskar ursprungsbefolkning. Samernas är i högre grad ättlingar till grupper som anlände senare. Se tex: https://t.co/ElpcHpBszB https://t.co/k5CdRCmdR6

@_felipe_c_ (Twitter)@SparGeneralen @SpAraMustafa Sverige och Norge befolkades först från söder. Etniska svenskar och norrmän är delvis ättlingar till de ursprungliga grupperna. Samerna tillhör en finsk-ugrisk grupp som kom österifrån flera tusen år senare. https://t.co/ElpcHpBszB https://t.co/IzFdgV5pcL

Abstract Synopsis
- This study analyzes the genomes of seven Mesolithic hunter-gatherers in Scandinavia, revealing two distinct migration routes into the region—initially from the south and later from the northeast—highlighting complex postglacial settlement patterns.
- The genetic data show an east-west gradient that is different from other parts of Mesolithic Europe, suggesting unique population dynamics in Scandinavia, including interactions between different groups.
- The populations adapted to high-latitude environments through genetic traits like low pigmentation and physical performance genes, which continue to influence modern northern Europeans.]
