Wrong again!

I only browse the actual sources m8, the peer-reviewed academic journals. Newspapers exaggerate and can trick people who don't know that much about genetics.

Y-R1b-L21 is by far the first almost unique HG among Irish people male ligneages but in Britain you can find some non negligeable %s of U152, as in S-E England, C-E Scotland, and not too ridiculous in S-W England, even in Wales, for the most as a result of some Belgae and Gaulish (Switzerland, E-Gaul) tribes -
Britain is not uniform at all, even among non-germanic ligneages, spite some affirmations without sound scientific basis (some "Pan-British" nationalism).

Did you even read it yourself.

I basically says that there is little anglo-saxon influence and much variation in the non-germanic groups it confirms what I said here already on the first and second page.

>>52295968
>Britain is not uniform at all, even among non-germanic ligneages,

And yes, they are not of a uniform Celtic stock, as I also said:
> non negligeable %s of U152µ
and L21 obviously present as the prototype of insular Celtic subclade.

All confirmed in the papers I have read

Look they mainly did a cluster comparision with populations in Europe they tested? Pic related are their conclusions. First off I wouldn't call that very uniform. Secondly, take into account that Western Germany is mostly R1b-U106, the first Germanic subclade to split from the proto-Italo-Celtic parent group, there is much more Gallic/Celtic/Celto-Iberic types than purely Germanic types. After all Angli and Saxons came from the area now known as Sleeswijk-Holstein, Denmark and Saxony.

And these clusters and their comparision to European populations is all that the paper offered. I browsed through the methods and discussion, all 24 pages, but nothing about determining the haplogroups and subclades.

Without that, why show me the study in a reaction to my post:>>52295499
>>52295499
>Genetically exactly the same as the rest of England.
>You mean R1b-L21 Atlantic Celtic type?

>>52295569
>Cornish people, the study adds, are much more closely related to the English than the Celts.

Look yourself, it is bullcrap, as I just explained. He just assumes all non-Anglosaxon clusters are not Celts, by referring to Belgium, France, Spain.. clusters. Why don't they use haplogroups, the only way you can make such a statement? But then they go claim that Britonic probably weren't Celts but descendants of unknown mesolithic people? Without subclades to show.
>>
>>52296578
Yeah, I think is just coincidene or probably some father of this homeland who traveled and study in Europe saw your flag and inspired ours in that .

Mm, I think is just coindence.
