What 'race' are modern 'indigenous white britons/english', /pol/? A lot of shit happened in our ancient history that it's hard to even tell.

From what I can estimate, it kind of goes like this:

>A big bowl of Celtic Britons/original settlers.
>Add a dash of Rome from the Roman Conquest.
>Throw in a lump of Anglo's, Saxons and Jutes (who were north germanic and south denmark) during the anglo-saxon migration.
>Add another big lump of northern denmark/norway/true norse from constant Viking wars and the Danelaw being established in northern england
>Then another sprinkle of French-Norse (what with William the Conqueror and his army being the grandchildren of Viking settlers given land in Normandy, so pretty much 50/50 norse/french)

What would you guys say? In light of new scientific evidence that none of these migrations ever really truly 'overtook' the original celtic genes?

I'd estimate:
>50% Celtic British
>20% Anglo-Saxon
>20% Norse
>5% French (whatever the fuck that is. I assume Celtic Gaulic)
>3% Roman
>2% Other

I won't bother getting into facts like North england and Scotland are more Norse than South England, Wales and Cornwall due to Danelaw conquests and so on, or that Anglo-Saxon genes are more prominent in the East, but have I got the general idea right?

Discuss.

Also, the Celts and Anglo-Saxons were cultures, not peoples. Anglo-Saxon heritage is strongly concentrated in Kent, outside of that, you'll find almost no Germanic heritage. There are bodies that have been dragged out of bogs that are 5000 years old and can still be linked to people around the area. Race-mixing wasn't common back then.

There's no black and white all-encompassing answer to your question. It's better to ask what a Cornishman is, or an East Anglian, or a Yorkshireman.

>>80420935
And Cornish. Studies have consistently shown that the Welsh and Cornish are genetically distinguished from their neighbours. Even the northern Welsh are distinct from those in the south.
>>
>>80420553
This is inaccurate. They did testing on it and the highest Germanic mix is in East Yorkshire, East Anglia etc (basically anywhere the three main groups landed).

You are right that Celts do not exist though, for example the Scots are more closely related to the English than they are the Irish. The North and South Welsh are more closely related to English regions that border them than they are to other Welsh people.

The Britons have been quite resilient and are still mostly descended from the original tribe after the ice age:

>>80422703
Not true.

1) There is no such thing as a Celt. It was just a language group, not a genetic one.
2) Anglo-Saxons were the only group to leave a legacy, the Norse did not because there were not enough of them.
3) The Romans did not settle Britain but rather worked with local elites, there was a small military garrison, and genetic testing shows no significance from it.
4) The Normans did not contribute in genetic terms. Only a few thousand of them came over.

I reckon your ratio's are about right, the Romans and Normans were there as occupying forces, mostly police and soldiers so their blood wouldn't be that intermingled, the rest were settlers and shaggers.

Stop saying Catalonia. There is no connection between Catalonia and the Basques, or the Gallaecians. The Gallaecia lived on the other side of the Iberian peninsula from modern-day Catalonians.

>>80422422
What are you talking about? The story of the Milesians gained even greater popularity after Ireland was Christianised, because it was used by local lords as the basis of their legitimacy to power. They would create elaborate genealogies which traced back to the Milesians as a means of clearly establishing their authority.

You're also taking Oppenheimer's theory to conclusions his studies never came to. He concluded that the British are largely related to modern Iberians, using Basques in particular as the case study. That is to say, many modern British and modern Iberians share some of the same ancestors. This is not the same as saying that the British are descended from Basques or from people who came from the Iberian peninsula.

And as someone already pointed out, Oppenheimer's study is outdated by a decade.

Yes, there were. But it's still not understood whether the people in Britain "became" Celts due to migration or a process of acculturation.

In any case there is no difference between a Briton and a Celt. Briton = Brython = Brettaniai, meaning anyone who hails from the British Isles. At the time this term was coined by the Greeks and Romans, they were referring chiefly to the Celtic peoples who lived there.

That doesn't help your argument because 15,000 years ago Catalonians didn't exist and the Basques STILL didn't come from Catalonia.

The Basques were most closely related to the Aquitani. They were related to Iberians proper (the people living in El Levante), but they were most closely linked to the Aquitani. Basques are not, nor have they ever been, Catalonians or from Catalonia.

I would be proud if that were true because I have a great respect for Basques and Iberians in general. But it's not true.

Do I share ancestors with Basque people? Yes.
Are we, in general, descended from the same people? Yes.
Does that mean I'm descended from Basques? No.

Are both ostriches and crows descended from theropod dinosaurs? Yes.
Do they descend from the same dinosaurs? Yes.
Does that mean ostriches are descended from crows? No.

The catalonia guy is a moron but he's still right about British people being descended from basque settlers thousands of years ago. These people were the first to settle Britain and Ireland and haven't actually ever been replaced by other peoples who settled on the islands.

The Irish are strongly associated with the celtic people and the British with the saxon people, but this is due to their cultural dominance of those areas, rather than their ethnic displacement of the original population.

>British population history has been shaped by a series of immigrations, including the early Anglo-Saxon migrations after 400 CE. It remains an open question how these events affected the genetic composition of the current British population. Here, we present whole-genome sequences from 10 individuals excavated close to Cambridge in the East of England, ranging from the late Iron Age to the middle Anglo-Saxon period. By analysing shared rare variants with hundreds of modern samples from Britain and Europe, we estimate that on average the contemporary East English population derives 38% of its ancestry from Anglo-Saxon migrations. We gain further insight with a new method, rarecoal, which infers population history and identifies fine-scale genetic ancestry from rare variants. Using rarecoal we find that the Anglo-Saxon samples are closely related to modern Dutch and Danish populations, while the Iron Age samples share ancestors with multiple Northern European populations including Britain.
http://www.nature.com/ncomms/2016/160119/ncomms10408/full/ncomms10408.html

There's pretty much no influence from the Norman invasions, this shouldn't be too surprising since it was mainly aristocrats that came here, much the same with The Danelaw. It's pretty much just Natives + Anglo-Saxon, but even then since the most the population has remained static for the past 1400 years, the anglo contribution is located almost solely in the south east, and even then only contributes half of their genetic makeup.

If you'd like to read more have a look at:

As well as the Telegraph article I posted a bit ago.

This. Depends where you are from. As far as I know (and thats only to my grndparents great grandparents) we've always lived in Yorkshire which was a large center for the Anglo-Saxons and obviously later Danes.

What do you think the Normans contributed that otherwise wouldn't have existed?

Celts, Anglo-Saxons, Norse, French, Romans are all Indoeuropean peoples descending from the same tribe of genocidal maniacs.

If you are British, your genetic make-up will mostly resemble mine.

If you are English, expect a higher concentration of Northern European - Scandinavian in your genes.

a kind of new colonialism that ultimately became mutliculturalism and the imperial system. EG the idea that the easiest way to rule people was to blanda up/integrate while respecting local traditions. Usually involves marrying into or co-opting local elites. You see this being reproduced outside of england in sicily soon after.

Not only does this post show a lack of historical knowledge of how the Normans worked and interacted with the population, it also shows a worrying lack of understanding of how any empire has operated.

>Usually involves marrying into or co-opting local elites.
This wasn't a new thing, not at all. In fact The Bastard only came to England because he was related to Edward the Confessor (through his mother I think). The elites of Europe have always interbreed.
