    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    Nah ... you're not, but do you mind explaining what is the Atlantic element that you have and you are so passionate about? You don't look like someone from a Western European country that borders the Atlantic Ocean. However, I can see your ancestors raising sheep in the Ottoman Balkan...

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    Yes, many such cases. Veroia was the capital of the Christian Kip-chaks/Cumans for a period, with some families surviving all the way up to the 20th century and today. Christian Tatars from Crimea also settled around Adrianopolis and Constantinople in various stages of the empire. I commend...

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    Angela, you and Jovialis are absolutely right in your sentiments. Greek people, as a whole, look neither like the people on the Atlantic coastline nor like the people in the Alps. I mean how could they? They have their own streamlined look with influences that make them have common...

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    They are from Soufli, and originally from Adrianopolis/Edirne, Eastern Thrace has these Tatar/Pecheneg leaning types. And the recent transplants you are referring to are the Albanophones, like your own villages; Christianised Pechenegs and Cumans/Kip-Chaks have settled in (Eastern) Thrace (and...

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    Pontics do have these broad-faced types, as well, I'd say it's probably half and half, from my experience, because some overlap with South Caucasians from some specific areas (Kars, for example, Rize, and other places). Still, I'd say the most broad-faced types come from Macedonia and Thrace...

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    R-M269 has a TMRCA of 6400 ybp and R-L23 a TMRCA of 6100 ybp. It's just that your DNA company hasn't been able to move downstream from that because they also use software "extractors" as well. Y-DNA mutates at an average short-tandem repeat locus per 25 years, so you need to test further to...

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    These are Cappadokians/Karahmanli (Karahmanids) in East Macedonia. I try to find videos of normal people, not dancing groups so their faces are visible and the impression of the viewer not altered by traditional clothing/headgear.

    Phenotypes of the Greeks

    You said you are from an Arvanitic village. Albanophone villages are latecomers in Thrace (17th-18th+ century, late Ottoman period) in relation to other groups like (Eastern) Rumeliotes, Gagauzes, and even Armenians who trace their settlements in Byzantine Middle Ages. If you input your raw...
