The Welsh are not in cages, Welsh have been mixing with 'other' Britains for thousands of years what makes you think they just 'mate' with each other???

Because people in bandustans only mate with each other, so the concept of natural, European society is beyond the scope of colonial zonification. Impossible to grasp.

I know that, I was just paraphrasing the title of a study which made a genetical studies on the Welsh population recently stating they're genetically the British population closest to the population that lived before Anglo-Saxon and Viking invasions of Britain. I know the Welsh have been mixing with other British people too. The study was done in various rural areas of the U.K., the Welsh and Cornish were found to be the most distinct while other populations of England especially the south-east and central regions were found to be a mixture of Pre-Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Viking settlers. This shows at one time especially during the Anglo-Saxon rule, when Wales was 'created' there must have been some form isolation, this could be true for areas in northern Wales. This is why Wales and Cornwall sample were found different from the rest of Southern and central England. The people of Orkneys were also shown different, since Scandinavian ancestry is much more obvious than anywhere in Britain, and they were under Scandinavian control from A.D. 875 to 1472, before coming under Scottish dominion.

I freely expressed my statements most of the times based on scientific, anthropological, genetical evidence. If you won't to argue with my statements, speak clearly, don't hide! You should actually receive a warning from the moderator of this thread, since you've used very racist connotations concerning African/African-descended/Black people living in what I believe was called Bantustan(not Bandustan, watch your spelling ). I wouldn't call that a civil behaviour. I have never made racialist statements as you've just did, but I have received warnings, when I retaliate by answering back. So let's be civil and use proper language even when we don't agree. I don't know why you and someone else on this thread are speaking to me about Bantustans? I have nothing to do with them? Are you a South African? What do you mean by colonial zonification? Listen I'm not a racist and have nothing against people of color. This thread has nothing to do with it. If you have something interesting concerning this thread question, bring it up!

There are different R1b subclades, they're not all exactly the same as you imply. Remember R1b subclades are spread out all over Europe. So for you to say that the R1b subclade which is commonest in Spain to be exactly the same as the one in Britain or in Friesland is wrong. There is a specific reason why they were divided into subclades. For most of western Britain and Ireland, it is the R1b-L21 which is more common. In Spain, it's the R1b-S116 I believe which is much more common, in the Netherlands, parts of Germany, southern England it's the R1b-U106. That's not zonification, but facts! [/quote]

The German individual(Gerhard Schroeder) is not from Bavaria, but from North Rhine-Westphalia. That's definitely not in the south, O.K.
