>Researchers from New Zealand's University of Otago believe the DNA of the man, who they call 'Young Man of Byrsa' or 'Archie', closely matches that of a particular modern day individual from Portugal
First DNA from ancient Phoenician shows European ancestry

How is this news? It's a very well established fact that the phoenicians were regular visitor on the iberian peninsula

that only means that Phoenician man was from one of their colonies the Iberian peninsula.
And it confirms Phoenician colonists mixed with the locals, be them from Iberia or North Africa.
And it also confirms contact between Iberia and North africa happened not only during the islamic conquest, but because of phoenician colonization.
But the people of Tyre werent European.

Bullshit.
He doesn't even have a turban.

My belief: egyptians/babylonians/sumerians/phoenicians = celtic
Greeks/persians/vedics/israelites = nordic

Plot twist: He was just a slave for tha KANGZ.

They did this with King Tut as well and found that modern day Brits are the closest genetic match to at least that Egyptian dynasty.

Is this the white version of "we wuz kangz"?
Michael Martin
Yeah
Lincoln Robinson
whites weren't considered human up until 1600 ad. thus they claim each and every civilization as theirs.
being wh*te must be suffering. but don't it won't last long.
Michael Thomas
Nothing new, phoenicians trade with almost every country in europe. phoenician dna can be found in france, spain, italy, germany etc

I knew it. WE WUZ N SHIEET
Liam Morris
I suppose so, but I tend to believe genetic evidence. It doesn't mean that Ancient imperial Egyptians were European, but it does mean that at least the royal family of that Dynasty was European.

Mind if I ask for any articles or such about it?
I am fucking lazy.
Alexander Sullivan
I'm not saying I refuse to believe you, but just the concept of an Egyptian royal dynasty actually being British is pretty absurd to me.
Eli Thomas
It definitely made a lot of waves. 50% of western Euros and 70% of Brits have the same general haplotype.
Kayden Bennett
Ahh it's concerning haplotypes, that I can understand

Feels good being the literal progenitor lf the white race tbհ

>"The haplogroup R1b1a2, which iGENEA (swiss genomics company) claims includes King Tut, arose 9,500 years ago in the Black Sea region. How Tut's ancestors would have gotten from that region to Egypt is unknown, but Scholz said iGENEA hopes to learn more by collecting more close and exact matches from modern people of Western European descent."
