The Kurdish groups scoring the highest Iranian ancestry are Yezidis from Turkey, followed by Laki-speaking Kurds from Iran and Kurds from Hakkari. The groups with the lowest Iranian ancestry are Kurmanji-speaking Kurds from Kayseri, followed by Kurmanji-speaking Kurds from Gümüşhane and Zazas from Mardin. Interestingly, Kurds from Ankara and Konya show a decent amount of Iranian ancestry, surpassing even Kurds from Diyarbakir, Van and Duhok. The average Iranian ancestry among all Kurds so far is 58%. Of course, these numbers are not set in stone, as some cities are underrepresented while others are overrepresented.



Bu modele bir tane de Indus Valley BA/AASI gibi proxy koysaydın daha iyi olurdu bence çünkü bazılarında Slab Grave mirasını şişirmiş (böyle bir proxy olmayınca çoğunlukla Doğu Avrasya'ya kayıyor o bileşen çünkü). Her ne kadar Türkiye'deki Kürtlerde genelde çıkmasa da İranlı Kürtlerde/Lurlarda falan çıkıyor %1-3 Indus Valley/AASI related bir bileşen. Kirmanşah'da mesela %5 Slab Grave çıkmıyordu burada bu yüzden çıkmış galiba.


Can anyone show me the Middle Perian text where it says Kurd means nomad or tent dweller? I have seen only 3 Middle Persian texts mentioning Kurds, none of them says that Kurd means tent dweller. This claim originates from the work of Armenian nationalist Garnik Asatrian..

@HemdadArwandi Ok.
