The European Ancestry of Mexicans

Northern Mexico's European heritage

Northeast vs Northwestern Mexico

Northeastern Mexico:
The Spaniards who settled there were majority from Andalusia, Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha and small pockets of Northern Spaniards from Cantabaria, Asturias, Navarre and Basque
The Portuguese who majority settled there were coming from Azores Islands
The Italians who majority were settling there were coming from the Northern part with small pockets from the Southern

Sephardi Jews also settled there and made it their home, in which majority of them were coming from Portugal and then Spain




Northwestern Mexico:
The Spaniards came from various parts, but unlike Northeastern Mexico, they received a rather much larger Basque/Northern Spanish population
There were Portuguese and Italian soldiers who came with the Spanish to colonize the Northwestern part of Mexico.
For Sinaloa and Baja California, dont have samples for it, maybe Celph Titled got some already now. And of how much the Italians contributed to the gene pool of that population.

Yea that would be great brah. But I know what you mean, happens. I have been there before, apart from the feel to lazy, I also have gotten very busy with some things that by the time I get home I feel tired like say to make a anthropology video lol. Right now I have gotten more time again to make some on the lockdown, and to play video games, since the lockdown. I try to balance things, but sometimes u dont get a lot of time. I feel ya brah.
I could imagine
