[QUOTE]Originally posted by MindoverMatter718: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by KING: [qb] Mike111 Credit you for posting the study without the Insults. First let me say that in the results of the study, Six Etruscans had the J2 Hapgroup and belong to the JT Hapgroup. This would make some of thesse peoples close to the people in the middle East, Mind there was no middle east at that time. It also says that Alleles were also linked to the country of Turkey. It also said there was a Link with North Africa(Algeria and Egypt) It also says the Turkish Genes comes in 3 times as large as any other genes. They also state that these genes estimation should not be taken at face value...MAYBE they are trying to save face on the link to North Africa, or Maybe not. What I see from this study Mike, You really should not think that this is the be all and end all of the Etruscans. This study does confirm at least that the elite Etruscans had links to Africa, And western Asia and Turkey. Calling them Black from this study is being to hasty. Anyways maybe you can critique what I post and show me where I miss read the study. Peace [/qb][/QUOTE]Indeed and all one really had to do was read the abstract. Poor Mike LOL. [b]The Etruscans: A Population-Genetic Study[/b] [i]"The origins of the Etruscans, a non-Indo-European population of preclassical Italy, are unclear. There is broad agreement that their culture developed locally, but the Etruscans’ evolutionary and migrational relationships are largely unknown. In this study, we determined mitochondrial DNA sequences in multiple clones derived from bone samples of 80 Etruscans who lived between the 7th and the 3rd centuries b.c. In the first phase of the study, we eliminated all specimens for which any of nine tests for validation of ancient DNA data raised the suspicion that either degradation or contamination by modern DNA might have occurred. On the basis of data from the remaining 30 individuals, the Etruscans appeared as genetically variable as modern populations. No significant heterogeneity emerged among archaeological sites or time periods, suggesting that different Etruscan communities shared not only a culture but also a mitochondrial gene pool. [b]Genetic distances and sequence comparisons show closer evolutionary relationships with the eastern Mediterranean shores for the Etruscans than for modern Italian populations . All mitochondrial lineages observed among the Etruscans appear typically European or West Asian, but only a few haplotypes were found to have an exact match in a modern mitochondrial database, [/b] raising new questions about the Etruscans’ fate after their assimilation into the Roman state."[/i] For further info on the Etruscans, go here; http://www.firstscience.com/home/news/breaking-news-all-topics/ancient-etruscans-were-immigrants-from-anatolia-or-what-is-now-turkey_32636.html http://www.physorg.com/news101272605.html [/QB][/QUOTE]
