Default Re: Viking woman had roots near the Black Sea
This is not worth commenting on until we hear how they determined this. It could be as vague as a mitochondrial or Y chromosome haplogroup that merely has a greater frequency near the Black Sea (nowadays). It could have been done by determing what water the individual drank in their youth, and a probably match having been found in the water isotopes down in the Ukraine. It could be a cranial anthropology matter, but we all know the ifs and buts of that discipline.
Has anyone found anything more detailed on this yet?
