      @@derikheinz9207 Actually Ireland has a very distinct group of DNA because they were so isolated. Celts inhabited Ireland and lived there for thousands of years. The the Romans took over England and Wales. Eventually the vikings came, but evidence has shown there was little to no effect on the Irish. Norman occupation of Dublin did not have much impact at all either. When the English took over Ireland, it was very rare for them to mix, and was illegal until the late 1800s, and even after that today this day there is still stigma between intermarriage. So actually Irish people tend to be vast majority Celtic DNA, and most commonly match with people of Wales, Scotland, and Basque(in Spain) which may be why that one girl was part Iberian.

      +Almog Levin There's a saying, "Exotic is erotic". When all your possible reproductive partners look like your cousins (probably because, you know, they are) and someone with different colored hair or eyes or skin wanders by, it's natural to find that person "exotic" and therefore desireable in order to create genetic diversity. Genetic diversity (aka Hybrid Vigor) = stronger offspring.

    The Iberian DNA is from Iberian Celts who were the first settlers who travelled up into the British Isles when it was uninhabited. That's from 6000 years ago. Amazing. That Italian/Middle eastern DNA is probably from Roman era in the Byzantine Empire. Fascinating :0

      Was about to say the same along with that it is ancient "mythology" that the people originated from Eastern Europe and migrated across the seas through the islands to Iberia(Portugal/Spain) and then up to Ireland. My family also has small amounts of DNA from Eastern Europe, Sardinia, & Iberia but is mainly "Irish".

    • @jotoolethrower
      @jotoolethrower Před 5 lety +8

      Also many Irish men were stationed in the Iberian penninsula during the Napoleonic wars and married local women who they often brought back to Ireland with them when their tours of duty were up. I suspect that the relatively large percentage is more likely from a more recent period than 6000 years ago.

    As for the Amazonian, the British took a lot of people from India and Pakistan to South America and the Caribbean to work as indentured servants and to work on the plantations after slavery was abolished. Some of those people returned to where they were originally from. However, there are still large Indo-Caribbean cultures in Guyana, French Guiana, Suriname, Trinidad, etc. So that might explain where that comes from, especially if her parent are from Indian and Pakistan.

    First of all, MyHeritage is probably the least accurate testing company of all. Try 23andme, Ancestry DNA or Family Tree DNA. Secondly, these percentages should NOT be taken literally. That's why some companies use geographical terms like East European, South Asian instead of saying Irish or Chinese. These percentages say you share some markers with a group. And in case of Europe, it's nothing special, because most Europeans are related to each other in varying degrees. An Iberian can score some "Irish" and and Irishman can score some "Iberian" without having any recent or direct ancestry from that place.

      Again you are confusing things. Arab is a race from Saudi Arabia and has mixed with other races such as the Phoenicians in Lebanon, Berbers in North Africa which there are only 50 million left. Now you are confusing Arabs with Muslims. The second is a religion rather than a race. Equally many people confuse it the other way around and think that Spain was conquered by the Arabs and it was not the case as it was conquered by the Moors or arabised Berbers.

      Not sure if there were Jews fleeing to Ireland per se, but there were Sephardi Jews fleeing to England following the Inquisition. There were also Crypto-Jews living within England after a decree to expel them was put in place during the Middle Ages. So not entirely impossible but simply very unlikely. Also, the mere fact that the Jewish ancestry shown was also bundled with Eastern European might indicate that the Jewish ancestry was simply erroneously detected.
      Disraeli for example was a British Jew who converted to Christianity, he had no children, but imagine a theoretical scenario where he did have children, his descendants would be roaming Britain, not ever knowing that they have partial Jewish ancestry.
      Ultimately I agree that it is fairly far fetched to assume that all of them had Jewish ancestry, but to assume that there is some Jewish conspiracy involved.. you're stooping very low

What was surprising is the fact that after comparing her DNA to the average Irish Scots in Ireland she is more Irish Scots than the Irish Scots. Maybe it’s the insular isolation of the region but surprising nonetheless.
