DNA?

[cynisca]

Maybe the DNA of the Aigai/Pella remains could answer some of these questions?

Although this thread is going to be deleted, i will answer anyway. There has already been a dna test on ancient bones in the greek territory (from the pelasgian populations,as well as the populations of the classical and hellenistic period)which resulted in 99% similarity with the dna of the modern greeks.I will search and post more about this. I dont know if there has been any specific dna test on the macedonian greeks and the skopjans.And there doesnt have to be one.It is well known that the slavs first came into the balcans in the 7th century a.d.And it is also known that Tito moved many greek populations away from the northen balcans while he was forming Yugoslavia,and brought many slavic populations there.

There were tests done by the English on the bones in the gold box from Vergina. The results are too hot to publish.What we do have is DNA evidence connecting modern Macedonians with the Kalash. Did Tito and slavs send them there?Pakistani Kalash CHART

Look at the end where it says: "The limitations are made evident by the authors' extraordinary observations that Greeks are very similar to Ethiopians and east Africans but very distant from other south Europeans; and that the Japanese are nearly identical to west and south Africans. It is surprising that the authors were not puzzled by these anomalous results, which contradict history, geography, anthropology and all prior population-genetic studies of these groups. Surely the ordinary process of refereeing would have saved the field from this dispute." Your basic link and source of the table showing the human races calculator is from a website hosting service.You mind telling us where this table was published initially? Also,this http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articl ... tables-sec
does not say anything about Yugoslavians,slavs,skopjans.
There is this chart though that says it all:http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articl ... e&id=TB1It says that the possible origins of Kalash and Burusho are greek (Alexander's army). You said: "There were tests done by the English on the bones in the gold box from Vergina. The results are too hot to publish."This clame is without any basis.Lets see the results and then we will talk about it.But i guess there are not any results since maybe there wasnt any test in the first place,or if it was the results didnt have anything to do with skopjans and slavs. In conclusion,we have one ridiculous research that was dismissed as it lacks scientific merit,and a dna test on the pakistans that shows that the Kalash and the Burusho have greek origins.Greek,not slavic,since the slavs were not existant at the time of Alexander the Great.And we have one table that shows Yugoslavian origin for the Kalash (which is ridiculous by itself,as Yugoslavia constisted of serbs,slovenians,croatians,skopjans e.t.c who all came from the north,and they are slavs) from an unkwon origin,probably Skopjan.So,stop the ridiculous propaganda.

Oh and i forgot to quote the ending paragraph at the first link which basicly says it all:http://www.nature.com/cgi-taf/DynaPage. ... 15b_r.html "We believe that the paper should have been refused for publication on the simple grounds that it lacked scientific merit."

you skopjes you culturally and historically void morons the rest of the scientific has denounced that sydy over and over again yet you poor hapless sjopkje hang on i guess you do not have much so you have on to what ever litle morsels you have howerver uselss
momon lave etan e epitas skopje is poor cowardly void of history and culture remains poor cowardly void of history and culture and will die poor cowardly void of history and culture NEVER MACEDONIAN

[etan e epitas]

i see you got things covered for a minute there i thight these skopjes were going to try and use another one of thier desperate ploy for thier desperate hopless cause
skopje was is remains and will always be void of history and culture never macedonia

It is modern science! Do you know your daddy's line?Do they conduct DNA tests in Greece to determine paternity? It is a new thing, it is the final word on relationships. They use it in courts etc. too, it can hang you or save you. So who are the ancient and modern "Greeks" related to? Let us first see the relationships of the Daddys of the living Greeks.
