Majority of Europeans are from Armenia - genetic conformation

A recent study of the origin of the first Europeans recently published

in the British monthly Proceedings of the Royal Society reveals that

the first men came to Western Europe nearly 40,000 years ago, reports

Nouvelles d'Arménie.

 

These people lived by hunting, fishing and gathering. These early

Europeans were oppressed with the arrival of people from Anatolia

(Armenian plateau), who were sedentary living people with very

different lifestyle from economic and social respects. According to

recent studies, characteristic features of these people from Anatolia

were present in the chromosomes of 100 million Europeans, particularly

those living in Spain, Ireland and Wales.

 

The researchers also found that the presence of these chromosomes were

even stronger in populations of Eastern Europe, close to Anatolia.

Thus there would be little difference in the genetic characteristics

of populations in Eastern Europe and Middle East. Only downside to the

study of British researchers is that they cannot say the precise date

for the arrival of these chromosomes from Anatolia (the Armenian

plateau) to Europe.

I hope this "news" is not Armenian and is not related to Armenian science. Few years ago Georgians found the first "European" in their territory. Let it be, please! Since these "people" came to Europe from Anatolia, than most likely they were Turks, and since Europeans descent from Turks, Turkey should join the EU:)
