I mean that if N-P43 started to expand from China to Siberia and Europe 15kya ago it is open to different interpretations compared to a context in which it started expanding only 10kya ago.<br /><br />Am I right then that N-P43 and N-M178 are both about the same age and both probably arose somewhere in West China and started expanding to South Siberia and Europe c. 8kya, i.e. only 6 BC. In this case, I doubt that there would be enough time for them to for example reach Yuzhnyy Oleni Ostrov (=7,500 uncal yBP) so quickly. Moreover, Finnish/West Siberian microblade cultures, such as Early Kunda and Early Butovo cultures (8-10 kya), must be linked with other yDNAs, for example y DNA Q and/or I*.Kristiinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02994105875605082112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-29321001226536539762014-11-07T15:53:11.334+02:002014-11-07T15:53:11.334+02:00Thanks, Kristiina.

Maybe the Manchurian, Hui, Tibetan are as well.<br /><br />I'll check it more thoroughfully a bit later.<br /><br />Anyways, those dates are obtained using the old Zhivotovsky method, they should be much younger.sidoroffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00947879951567311038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-25736736880331061732014-10-28T10:14:24.324+02:002014-10-28T10:14:24.324+02:00The paper is found here:

So, at least the following are missing: Manchurian, Hui, Tibetan, Eskimo, West Finnish. However, I do not know how many Uralic groups, if any, are included in 406 Russians.<br /><br />Koryaks, Koreans, Tajiks and Iranians who were tested in the Derenko paper did not have any N1b. It seems that the populations tested are geographically more extendsive in the Chinese paper. Should their estimate then be more correct?<br /> Kristiinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02994105875605082112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-83261698565615411062014-10-22T18:09:25.053+03:002014-10-22T18:09:25.053+03:00Kristiina ,

In the Chinese paper (http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0066102), the age of STR variation of N1b-P43 is 18.9 kya, and in this new paper (N-P43-all, pooled), it is 7,834. In an earlier Derenko et al paper (2007), the coalescent time of N-P43 (N2) is 6.66. In the Chinese paper they tested mostly men from the Chinese territory, and apparently the individuals with N-P43 were mostly taken from earlier analyses. In the Chinese paper, N-P43 individuals were Evenks, Manchurian, Hui, Tibetan, Altaians, Tuvans, Eskimo, Khakass, Tofalars, Shors, Mongolians, Buryat, Tatar, Komi, Mari, Kalmyk, Russians, Vepsan, Karelian, West Finnish.Kristiinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02994105875605082112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-62262751558740723492014-10-15T16:47:10.032+03:002014-10-15T16:47:10.032+03:00The great new thing about this study is that every...The great new thing about this study is that every single Mansi haplotype is tagged with the name of the specific settlement where it was obtained.sidoroffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00947879951567311038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-4045619997730648662014-10-15T16:34:34.622+03:002014-10-15T16:34:34.622+03:00Which study found that L708 is a downstream and Ta...Which study found that L708 is a downstream and Tat is an upstream?sidoroffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00947879951567311038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-4740797114485419522014-10-15T16:22:15.515+03:002014-10-15T16:22:15.515+03:00Unknown (Wednesday, October 01, 2014 2:07:00 am), ...Unknown (Wednesday, October 01, 2014 2:07:00 am), sorry, what?...sidoroffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00947879951567311038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-43416053732876316612014-10-11T09:04:58.874+03:002014-10-11T09:04:58.874+03:00Simon_W

Probably because I can't bear to read the comments on some Hungarian forums that are sadly flooded by conspiracy theorist retards with apparently unlimited time. <br /><br />However as for Turkic "relationships": those are fact. They do not make the Hungarian a Turkic language, but Hungarian has a layer of Turkic influence that is notably strong.<br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13577601-west-old-turkic" rel="nofollow">There</a> are actually attempts to reconstruct extinct Turkic languages based on the Hungarian. <br /><br />In the 19. century when the study of the Finno-Ugrian relationships was seriously established (after 18th century forerunners) the Turkic theory was the only serious "rival". The debate was finally settled as the leader of the Turkic "fraction" on the Academy publicly admitted that his opponents were right and Finno-Ugrian "core" of the language is older and more significant that the Turkic part. Still, it was not the same level of misconception as an Etruscan relationship. <br />Slumberyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05139930329199925111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-41030685289411673462014-10-10T15:50:27.522+03:002014-10-10T15:50:27.522+03:00Linguistically there is no doubt that Hungarian be...Linguistically there is no doubt that Hungarian belongs to the Ugric branch of Finno-Ugrian languages and is thus related with Khanty and Mansi.

That doesn't even make sense. No contemporary linguist would ever "suggest" anything conclusive about genetics based on a linguistic tree model alone. The most obvious reason being that genetic history and linguistic genealogy can be easily decoupled over time, based on things such as elite dominance. But that has been obvious since at least the 19th century. <br /><br />Really, only someone with very limited knowledge about what historical linguistics is about would feel the need to proudly restate such a basic fact of life as if it were a new finding in need of publicity. The authors would do well to have a specialist from a Linguistics department help them.<br /><br />A look at the vast literature on Hungarian non-Uralic loanwords, for example, (which is independent from genealogy), could tell them a lot more about the complex interaction between the multiple groups that resulted in modern populations.tewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03905555876122154861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-15662201984462462752014-10-02T12:57:33.211+03:002014-10-02T12:57:33.211+03:00The ancient Hungarians lived in the Eurasian nomad...The ancient Hungarians lived in the Eurasian nomadic pastoral region (e.g. Cherkaskul culture).
