I was also surprised but I'm also happy about that because the stereotype that Turks from Western Turkey are all Turkiczied Greeks annoyed me very much. You mean that Konya was mostly populated by Turks don't you? Konya was the capital of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum, not Kayseri.
Chechens have only 1-2 % Mongoloid amixture which isn't really worth mentioning. Karakalpaks have nothing to do with the Caucasus, as they mainly live in the autonomous republic Karakalpakstan in Uzbekistan
You said there are few people that carry Turkic genes in Kayseri, I thought Kayseri was flooded by Turks who else lives their? I hear their is a small Armenian community there and there are rumours that Abdullah Gul is of Armenian descent.
