Pakistani punjabi Jatt samples on harappa do have east eurasian components in 4-8 % range such as siberian, NE asian, American and Beringian etc. From Harappa results it appears to me that punjabi Arain and Gujjars are genetically more similar to pakistani jatts as compared to rajputs.
4-7% is not big since most punjabis and kashmiris also have their east eurasian score in the same range and sometimes even higher than this number without any supposedly turkic heavy admixture.
And contrary to popular belief there is indeed some level of intermixing between Hazaras and other...
Genetics of Hazara clearly differentiates them from all other ethnic groups of afghanistan despite their heavy intermixing with other afghani ethnicities in afghanistan over the centuries, same is the case with most of the uzbeks and turkmens too. It is not as simple as many people like to...
From looks alone sometimes I have an impression that at least some of the Wazirs might be related to the ghilazais of the neighboring paktika province, for other karlanis it looks like they are indeed very ancient tribes of their respective regions and most probably are the people as you...
HGDP sample of 25 pashtuns was taken from kurram agency of FATA which is predominantly inhabited by Karlani pashtuns of Bangash, turi, orakazai tribes etc.
Yes on harappadna you can look into individual results of all the HGDP kalash, Brusho and kurram pashtun samples. Most kurram pashtuns...
Yes it is surprising that though they inhabit an area very close to mongoloid people they have managed to preserve their genetic heritage over the millennia which is remarkable, I was actually expecting them to have mongoloid influence though less than the regualr tajiks of tajikistan, their...
I have doubt about pashtun origin of "Jadoon" tribe, their name resemble too much with the ancient indo-aryan tribe of "Yadu" mentioned in vedic age, Yadu to "Jadu" and later "Jadun" shift is linguistically quite plausible.
The genetic tests of Ghilzai afghans show that their closest gentic cousins are Durranis/abdalis , they are genetically almost indistinguishable from durranis/abdalis. The same genetics of the two tribes shows that Abdalis and Ghilzais are descended from the same ancestors. The recent genetic...
After reading such comments I do feel strongly that people who have migrated from india into pakistan have totally different mindset and sensitivities than the people who belong to native cultures of pakistan. The OP has raised genuine concerns about the intentions behind negative portrayal of...
The whole Arab world writer this name as "Tariq" in english but I don't understand the reason why some south asian people have started replacing simple "q" in every word with stupid "que" without any logic.
This flood is due to high water levels in Chenab and Jehlum river , none of these two rivers have anything to do with Kalabagh area or any hypothetical kalabagh dam, can low IQ people stop their Kalabagh propaganda rants which has got nothing to do with both Chenab and Jehlum rivers.
Mast Gul is a pashtun from KPK who played a vital role during early stage of kashmir jahad in early 90s.
So-called punjabi taliban are actually saraiki speaking taliban, they are called punjabi because they belong to punjab province.
So-called IK supporters have very low IQ so I don't take their opinions seriously, I just said that it would have brought more credibility to the news related to these projects if we can find some links about these projects from chinese sources.
The funniest comment after some long time...
