      In the Italic Peninsula are some old tribes that have origine from Illyrian (Albania). They are located in North, Middle and South. Also in Sardenia and in Corsica. Further more some conection exist between Illyrians and Basques and also Celtics.

      just an anecdote, I have Iberian ancestry, and on ftDNA I'm 62% farmer, yet my Y haplogroup is R1b. The other ancient population percents are 29% hunter gatherer, and 10% metal age invader. This more or less keeps in line with the data about the Iberian peninsula, but like much of Southern Europe, there's a lot of shared farmer it seems.

It will be later found in Bronze Age Scandinavia, most probably introduced along the Bell Beaker or Corded ware cultures new immigrants from Central Europe. By founding effect it thrived along male Ydna haplogroups R1b and R1a too, introducing a strong dual ancestry of Steppes origin and the adopted Neolithic hg I1 of older Western hunter-gatherer real origin, surviving through the Bronze Age over I2 and other Neolithic haplogroups, because it was adopted by Bell Beakers.

I think it was called “The Well of Souls,” or something like that. It was just a place at the side of the tracks you could go down the steps into the dark as far as you could see. It may have been gated off at the lower level but I didn’t have a light so I didn’t go that far. Apparently it’s at least 3,000 years old.

      Hebrews had been along Phoenicians wherever these founded colonies as far as the Atlantic since the 900’s BC, when they were still not yet strictly monotheistic and had Ashera for female deity too, a variation of the Carthaginians own Tanit, besides the Canaanite father god El and maybe Baal (demonized later by Hebrews clergy to El for ultimate supremacy). Hebrews however closely related linguistically and genetically to Phoenicians, were like the rustic poor relatives and didn’t have any political or cultural clout within the more advanced Phoenicians urban civilization. But they will catch up soon and right after the annihilation of their more outstanding and bold entrepreneurial cousins. In Iberia where so many colonies they founded their important dna legacy gets confused with that of later Hebrews, strictly Jewish by the Roman Empire

Those men are between tallest in the world and good for sport or fighting. During the old time when ice age start to vanish those people moved to northern Europe.

    thank you for your true interest in the island of Sardegna... unfortunately most of the things that are written about the Sardinian people,language, traditions don't even get close to reality... specially when they start pumping this new DNA obsession.. particularly because DNA is NOT a precise perception of reality but a glimpse on enormous possibilities.. considering that dna haplotypes suffer enormous jumps that debunk all attempts of finding an unbeatable truth..same as for concepts like the"bronze" age iron age and also the present Dunce age... Sardinians are not of European origin, though invaded by many,the cultural memory has remained in the center of the island, and there tourism has not reached as the rest..the Nuragic period as some call is beyond the common imagination due to the enormous limitations of the present intellectual 'science' in front of their knowledge of physics, astronomy, mathematics, etc etc..things that are still to be discovered are far more superior to what has been found so far..and besides this people should use a better good sense, Phoenicia never existed as a fixed stable civilization,so all the visitors (including pirates invaders etc)passed leaving traces that did not change the local organized society...as an example,the roman invaders spent 400 years to reach the center of the island and had to retreat..so just imagine how the "roman" army was composed..paid mercenaries from all over the world... obviously you get numberless similarities..but the "cream" has barely been understood...to put a cherry on the cake, most of the archeological researches here in the island are made by extremely limited intellectual book reading minds,field work would have to be shared with many other Exact sciences like geology,astrophysics, engineering, mathematics etc .do you think these ego lovers dying to become famous and write crappy concepts to reach social status would share??? No way and by the way... let's stop this iron bronze age idiocy... it's much better to be astonished when facing the unknown than labelling it...thank you...saludus

    How come the "anatolian neolithic farmers" came and left no traces of farming on Sardinia??? The earliest traces of farming on Sardinia appear around the time the greeks appear. Much as with the rest of the northern Mediterranean. The "anatolian farmers" seem to had practiced animal rearing in Europe - those few, contrary to the "massive and well organised" arrival hypothesis, that did arrive.
    Otzi, one of descendants of these "farmers", three thousand years after the supposed arrival, was still eating wild animal meat and a bread from wild "wheat", not the "cultivated" one.
    Funny that "coincidence"...
