To untangle European ancestry, Bustamante and his colleagues compared existing DNA samples of 2,099 individuals from 43 different populations in Europe and Africa. Crucially, they included new genetic samples from North Africa and Spain.
The team found that for Southwestern Europeans (those from Italy, Spain and Greece), between 4 and 20 percent of their genomes came from North Africa, compared to less than 2 percent in Southeastern(Balkan) Europe.
The study also found that the apparent sub-Saharan ancestry in these populations was actually the result of North African lineage. [Likely transmigration and assimilation of Bantus by Muslim slavers]
That's actually opposite of all equally valid and likewise scientific studies that were done in the past with measurements and all. I wonder who's behind this new hip notion.

>oh wow there was people coming and going around the mediterranean since the times of the phoenicians, greeks and especially the Roman Empire! >such an amazing discovery!

10years from now there will be another study with a totally different result.

Wow it's almost as though they were ruled by them at some point

>2013 It's an old study. I don't know that much about that region but wasn't it already proved that ancient and modern Romans are largely the same?

>Greece >Southwestern Europe
Hmmmmmmmmm.
Was pic related perchance the leading scientist in that team of serious investigators?

Lol

it's funny because it's a 2013 article that's kinda been debunked southern Sicily does have up to 5% North African (caucasoi) admixture though.
Adrian Diaz
Then why is pic related the case?

Journalists doing editorials on science needs be against the law,and if done the said suspect should be hung from skyscrapers

Its a more recent and precise one. There are always new discoveries made in Science.

No, it's from 2013

Do have more recent data regarding this subject?

The haplotype J found in Greece,Turkey and the balkans is not in any way a recent African admixture.
>Lazaridis et al. (2016) tested the first ancient DNA samples from the Mesolithic Natufian culture in Israel, possibly the world's oldest sedentary community, and found that the male individuals belonged either to haplogroups CT or E1b1 (including two E1b1b1b2 samples). These are to date the oldest known E1b1b individuals. The same haplogroups show up in Pre-Pottery Neolithic B Jordan, accompanied by new haplogroups (H2 and T). Besides, E1b1b was not found in Neolithic Iran or Anatolia, and only showed up twice among the hundreds of Neolithic European samples that have been tested. This evidence suggests that at the end of the last glaciation 12,000 years ago, E1b1b men were present in the Levant, but not in other parts of the Near East. There is evidence that the Natufians already cultivated cereals like rye before the Neolithic period. Cereal farming may therefore trace its roots (literally) to the E1b1b tribes of the Mesolithic Levant.
>Decker et al (2013) reported that Iberian and Italian cattle possess introgression from African taurine, which could imply that cattle were not just domesticated in West Asia, but also independently in North Africa. If that is the case, E-M78 or E-M123 could have come to southern Europe through North African cattle herders during the Neolithic, although this hypothesis remains purely conjectural.
