What DNA Says About Aryan Invasion Theory -2

[HareKrishna]

1-Regarding Andronovo culture(2000bc) and scythians (700bc) ,samples show that R1a made 90% of them.
Today is only one region which is near but still cant match that procentage.The region is located in Bactria.
Brahmins have also over 70% R1a which sugest a founder effect .This show that brahmins originate in a small region.
Te theory is that indo-europeans was very rich in R1a and originated in the region betwin Tadjikistan,Afganistan and Fergana valley.Other places have already high procentages of other haplotypes from neolithic times.Only Bactria coresponde whit R1a relative purity .

2-Studies show that R1a originated in Balkans(Balkans and Crete have the highest diversity of R1a).
Pericic et al. (2005) shows a maximum diversity of R1a STR variance among Croatians and Bosnians.
The most recent proponent of a Balkan origin is Anatole Klyosov. Not only does he also believe that the R1a1 genetic diversity there looks older, but he has also written that the "current Indian R1a1 haplotypes are practically indistinguishable from Russian, Ukrainian, and Central Asian R1a1 haplotypes, as well as from many West and Central European R1a1 haplotypes.


So 72% of brahmins and 35% of north indians came from Balkans.
