This is unrelated to the thread topic but what do you think could be the cause of kurds showing a decent distance to northern levantines? I believe kurds are even closer to greek islanders and sephardic/ashkenazi jews than to samaritans for example who are southern levantines. I know the answer to that but still want to hear your opinion

we are not closer to greek islanders than northern levantines if i am not wrong

but to answer your question why we are not at a close distance to northern levantines is the fact that :

- we have way less southwest asian than them

- we have more Iran N , or west-central asian (if we talk about eu-k12b ) than them

- we have more north european or west european . and / or EHG related ancestry than them


many kurds get modelled as half northern levantine half northeast caucasus on gedmatch btw.

Not to northern levantines necessarily but to southern levantines.

I think kurds get modelled as 1/2 iranian jew and 1/2 NE caucasian based on the results you posted

Do you still believe that caucasus component gives lighter features and northern appearance ?

I actually noticed that assyrians get a decent amount of neolithic iranian in the mix. Mandeans who are southern mesopotamians get even more

42700542rk.jpg


42700544vh.jpg


42700493di.jpg


42710036la.jpg


42933980nm.jpg




compare the southwest asian score . and the scores for western european and north european . and keep in mind that these are mostly lebanese christians . many levantines unlike them get a significant amount of african as well . and even more sw-asian

look at it and get butthurt ....you people who whitewash levantines and brownwash kurds and claiming the biggest bullshit stuff

look at how ugly this is . u mad ? you want me to jizz in my pants or what . lel


that being said it is crazy how anybody can image the ethnicity of these people as gypsoid looking in their mind

I am gonna say it again. There should be a thread about northern and even southern levantine people and what they look like so people know that they aren't scandinavians of west asia

but if i did that people will say i cherrypick to make levantines look like negroids next to us kurds

we need a levantine member doing it

that being said ...i dont view levantines as very exotic or anything . but they are not more "muh white" than us kurds . no fucking way . AT MOST ...at the ultimate most lebanese could be ON PAR with kurds . if that
