Genealogy / Mongolian the Golden Horde - do Poles have Mongolian ancestry? [256]

My DNA test just showed the percentages of Caucasion, East Asian, Sub Saharan African, and Native American. I am amazed this can be done, and I really don't know the details. I think that each group has lived in their own gene pool for centuries, with distinct genetic markers.

I have A+ blood.

I don't know what others in my family may have.

I think many Whites in eastern Europe may have Asian DNA.

I bet people in England are less likely to have Asian DNA.

Armenians in Poland? I never heard of such a thing.

Absolutely, Poles can have Mongal blood!

My mom's family always suspected this. I have almond eyes, as did my uncle, Joe, had very almond eyes, very dark hair.

My mom's family has some Polish, also German and French. My dad's parents were Lithuanian immigrants.

I took a DNA test to confirm or rule-out Asian blood. My results were 7% East Asian ancestry.

I am CONVINCED that the Mongol invasions left a HUGE imprint in the Slavic European gene pool.

Do you know who Charles Bronson is? The late actor? Find some photos of him on the search engines, and you will see his Asian ancestry, at least it seems quite likely.

I think he was Lithuanian and Polish. Anyway, he looked like he was part Indian to me. He sometimes portrayed Indians or Mexicans due to his looks.

I can see the Asian blood in me, and the DNA test confirmed my hunches.
