Russians are one of the most pure-blooded peoples in Eurasia. Recent joint research by Russian, British and Estonian geneticists have put a big and fat end to the common Russophobic myth, which has been rooted in the minds of people for decades - they say, “scratch a Russian and you will definitely find a Tatar”.
The results of a large-scale experiment published in the scientific journal “The American Journal of Human Genetics” absolutely unequivocally say that “despite the widespread opinions about the strong Tatar and Mongol impurities in the blood of Russians, inherited by their ancestors during the Tatar-Mongol invasion, the haplogroup of the Turkic peoples and other Asian ethnic groups practically did not leave a trace on the population of the modern north-western, central and southern regions”. Like this. In this longstanding dispute, one can safely put an end to it and consider further discussions on this matter simply inappropriate. We are not Tatars. We are not Tatars. No influence on the so-called Russian genes. "Mongol-Tatar yoke" did not work.
We Russians never had any admixture of Turkic "Horde blood" and do not have any. Moreover, geneticists, summing up their research, declare the almost complete identity of the genotypes of Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians, thus proving that we were and remain one people: “the genetic variations of the Y-chromosome of the inhabitants of the central and southern regions of Ancient Rus turned out to be practically are identical to those of Ukrainians and Belarusians”. One of the leaders of the project, Russian geneticist Oleg Balanovsky, admitted that Russians are practically a monolithic people from a genetic point of view, destroying another myth: “everyone has mixed up, there are no pure Russians anymore”. Quite the opposite - there were Russians and there are Russians.
Further, examining the materials of remains from ancient burials, scientists have established that "the Slavic tribes mastered these lands (Central and Southern Russia) long before the mass resettlement of the bulk of the ancient Russians to them in the 7th-9th centuries." That is, the lands of Central and Southern Russia were inhabited by Russians (Rusichs) already, at least in the first centuries A. D. If not before. This allows us to debunk another Russophobic myth - that Moscow and its surrounding regions, allegedly, were inhabited since ancient times by Finno-Ugric tribes and Russians there are “newcomers”. We, as geneticists have proved, are not aliens, but completely autochthonous inhabitants of Central Russia, where the Russians have lived since time immemorial. “Despite the fact that these lands were inhabited even before the last glaciation of our planet about 20 thousand years ago, evidencethere are no direct indications of the presence of any “indigenous” ethnic groups living on this territory,”the report says.
That is, there is no evidence that some other tribes lived on our lands before us, which we allegedly drove out or assimilated. If I may say so, we live here from the creation of the world. Scientists also determined the distant boundaries of the habitat of our ancestors: "the analysis of bone remains indicates that the main zone of contacts of Caucasians with people of the Mongoloid type was located in Western Siberia." And if you consider that the archaeologists who excavated the oldest burials of the 1st millennium BC. on the territory of Altai, they found the remains of pronounced Caucasians (not to mention the world famous Arkaim) - the conclusion is obvious. Our ancestors (ancient Russians, Proto-Slavs) - originally lived throughout the territory of modern Russia, including Siberia and the Far East. So the campaign of Yermak Timofeevich with his comrades for the Urals from this point of view was a completely legitimate return of previously lost territories. That's it, friends. Modern science destroys Russophobic stereotypes and myths, knocking the ground out from under the feet of our "friends" - liberals. Their further speculations on these topics are already completely outside the scope of common sense, being of interest exclusively to psychiatrists investigating the mechanisms of obsessive delirium.
