No, i am not Romanian or in Romania, is a VPN

@Paulus698 @waldgeniesser Polen sind Minusmenschen wegen Stalin?

@Tencterer @waldgeniesser Die Russen unter Stalin haben erst für diese Probleme gesorgt, aber das wird gerne vergessen

Ey ich kack ab, wenn ich die Kommentare lese, meine Lanzleute auf Xitter sind ein Pack, was seines Gleichen sucht, vergeblich-erfolgreich

@samthenameofgod @RichPianian No its not lmao, it has nothing to do with Saxons, they speak a Frankish Thuringian dialect and are those two + wends

@RichPianian Absolutely. It's the origin of the modern world.

Do you like Saxony

@wacistwigga Not only that, maybe they didnt even speak it, which is the ironic part, or they and Frisians spoke it but were not really from the North, maybe just as Lingua franca

@Tencterer I see, so they were the first people to be called Germani. For the purposes of my post, I am using the word Germanic to refer to the peoples descended from those who spoke Paleo-Germanic (probably Nordic Bronze Age people)

THE THREE NEXUSES OF GENETIC WHITENESS 🧵 Here is a map showing the three European subraces that I personally think have the best claims to the title of being the genetically Whitest. I think of them as West, North and East Aryans. The subrace that is the Whitest depends on what is considered the most important criterion in quantifying genetic Whiteness (purity, raw north-shiftedness, steppe ancestry or similar). The peoples of the British Isles are set apart from continental populations by the size of their genetic inheritance from the Bell Beakers. This is why I decided to call them Beaker Folk, even though most British Islanders also have substantial continental Celtic and Germanic ancestry. Beaker Folk are the most purely European peoples on earth today. They descend pretty much exclusively from the three Cardinal Races of Europe: the Anatolian Neolithic Farmers, the Western Hunter Gathers and the Western Steppe Herders. The same is mostly true for continental Celtic populations, but Beaker Folk are more north-shifted, which gives them a better claim to Whiteness in my book. Scandinavians (as well as Icelanders, North Germans and Frisians) are the most genetically Germanic peoples on earth today. Germanics generally descend from the Corded Ware Culture as opposed to the Bell Beaker Culture, which sets them apart from their neighbours across the North Sea. In general, modern Germanics are more genetically north-shifted than modern Beaker Folk and occupy the most northerly end of the Western European genetic cline. However, it should be noted that on the northeastern peripheries of the Germanic world, there is some Uralic admixture, which is non-European in origin and therefore a mark against the genetic Whiteness of the individuals carrying it. This admixture, while quite pronounced in certain areas (like northern Sweden and Norway), is far from ubiquitous. In conclusion, if you just want to find a Northwest European without detectable non-European ancestry, you should probably go to the British Isles, but if you care about north-shiftedness/steppe ancestry in addition to purity, your best bet is to go to Scandinavia. Lastly, we have the Balts. When it comes to north-shiftedness, nobody can out-White the Balts (except maybe Finnic peoples like Finns and Estonians, but a non-European genetic contribution is fundamental to their ethnogeneses, so I don't consider them valid candidates for Whitest people). As far as I know, the jury is still out on whether this north-shiftedness is due primarily to elevated steppe ancestry, high WHG ancestry or excess EHG-related ancestry, but in any case, it is clear that Balts have a very large amount of WHG ancestry and a very low amount of ANF ancestry. Due to historic Uralic migrations to the area, the Siberian Y-haplogroup N is very widespread in modern Balts, but autosomal Siberian ancestry is quite limited. Among the three candidate subraces, Balts rank third in terms of purity, first in terms of raw north-shiftedness, and probably either first or second in terms of steppe ancestry (slightly behind Germanics if second). If trace Uralic ancestry is not a concern and all you want is to find a ~97-99% European individual with as little ANF ancestry as possible, definitely go to the Baltics. If trace Uralic ancestry is a concern, I would advise against it. To summarize, Beaker Folk are the purest on average, Germanics are the most north-shifted peoples where pure individuals are commonplace, and Balts are the most north-shifted people overall.

@elbgeniesser25 Die Umgebung ist grottenhässlich, aber die Straße an sich hat schöne neoklassische Säulen und so

@Tencterer Das ist ja in dem Teil von Friedrichshain, in dem man nach dem Krieg in großem Stil Plattenbauten errichtet hat. In dem Teil Berlins war ich noch nie, könnte ich mir aber bei Gelegenheit mal anschauen.

Teilweise ging die Ästhetik der DDR schon ziemlich hart, wie hier beim Palast der Republik von innen. Das hat was Monumentales. Der Kontrast dazwischen und dem kleinen, alten Honecker mit Fispelstimme könnte nicht größer sein. Ein junger Honecker hätte viel besser dazu gepasst.

@wacistwigga Genetically i agree with you tho

@wacistwigga The original Germani (Tungri) would be more like the new Dutch samples and probably not even like the high Steppe ones of them who were coastal. At some point it became an umbrella term and now of course means a Swedish Bronze Age linguistic group

@Tencterer I'm a bit dense, can you lay out your case more clearly?

This reminds me of something, also from the Netherlands x.com/Tencterer/stat…

Most of them are clearly identified as high Steppe Frisii (first ones) by McColl and everyone knows how Tacitus described their phenotypes. Either the predicted facial features are wrong or Tacitus was a liar or clueless.

@nrken19 True

@Tencterer Low coverage effect could be the reason and not to mention HIrisplex itself

@Johnnyola95 @m_izanami_ Im NW German. Stupid Ami

@Tencterer @m_izanami_ Listen stupid troll,Germans from northern Germany are mostly of Germanic background and they belong in the Nordic cluster with swedes,Danes,Norwegians,North Dutch..NorthSea Germanics and Scandos are proper Germanics in DNA.

@Johnnyola95 @m_izanami_ Omg

@Tencterer @m_izanami_ How Danes have Celtic numbers?If that it was the case they would cluster with Bavarians and Germans from Baden and Palatinato and they don’t…Even Germans from northern Germany(Saxony)cluster with Scandinavians and North Dutch.

@Johnnyola95 @m_izanami_ Lübeck is a Slavic name, even modern Danes have these Celtic numbers

@m_izanami_ Why a North German shows Slavic and Celtic?From what i am seeing Germans from these lands are super Germanic.

@bronze_savant @Tom_Rowsell @nrken19 Most of them are clearly identified as high Steppe Frisii (first ones, ENS) and we all know how Tacitus described their phenotypes. These predictions have to be wrong

@Tom_Rowsell @nrken19 These are not roman iron age northern europeans.

Biomolecular perspective through combined strontium, oxygen and carbon isotope analysis, and ancient DNA of 33 inhumed and 44 cremated individuals buried at Praetorium Agrippinae in modern-day Valkenburg (South Holland, the Netherlands). “The Roman Military Community as a Melting Pot: Biomolecular Evidence from the Lower Rhine Limes” researchsquare.com/article/rs-869…

@Iovincorix Its not a Melting Pot, but its clearly not one tribe. Most of them are Frisii (first ones) and the rest are Celtic admixed people, likely different Germanics

"Melting Pot" and it's just Western Europeans, with the exception of a Greek and a Balt. Something is wrong with modern academia.

Every building on every planet in Dune (2021) looks like rectangular stones without any decoration. Its supposed to look futuristic i guess, but you can not sell me that as the future if Ancient Egypt already looked better

@Supahdenning He was also alone, no parents buried with him there...

@Tencterer I'm not sure if it'd be the Romans or us who brought him there

There was a 13 year old Balt in Iron Age Netherlands. Romans exposed as being sus again?
