Hearted Youtube comments on Celtic History Decoded (@celtichistorydecoded) channel.

  1. You can see today the Yamnaya warrior culture still exist in Northern Caucasian people like Avars, Chechens and Lezgins and Slavic peoples today, these people dont fuck around.

  7. Interesting stuff. I'm an American and the majority of my ancestry is Dane. But i did a 23&Me test there was no surprise on my percentages it was mostly Scandinavian and German. However it also gave me my paternal haplo group which is R--L21 when I researched this it's highest concentration is found in Ireland and Scotland. So my guess is that my paternal ancestor was enslaved or adopted by Vikings and ended up in Denmark.

  8. It reminds me of Mesoamerican tribes attempting to use Spanish conquistadors against the Aztec empire. History rhymes, as they say.

  9. In a weird way the English British Empire brought the Celts greater glory than without the English. Because with the vast lands and resources material of the British Empire. The Brythonic and Gaelic populations in military commanders and soldiers accompanied the English into conquest with the British unification British. The Empire led to a lot of resources to Britain. So with these resources. Scientists and inventors of Celtic origins led to many scientific discoveries and technological inventions. And of course the Celts accompanying colonization in diaspora around the Empire. Without such uplifting from the Anglos themselves are half Celtic anyway.

  10. Thank you for making really interesting videos :-) Do you think you could do a video on the Papar, the ancient Irish monks who supposedly explored the North Atlantic? They'd make an amazing video! Keep up the good work

  11. Very Nice presentation. Thank you. As a genealogist I have been chasing my Abernathy [Scot] family history for almost 40 years now. A couple of years ago utilizing the best genetic Genealogy DNA testing available, I discovered that "I" originated from an area of the NE Scottish Coast near current day Aberdeen. They described my line as Pict and it goes back 4,000 years BCE. I was amazed! Still love learning more about the Picts, Gaels etc.

  14. Because the Yamnaya replaced this with their language and mythology. Even in the Levant and Caucuses they had some impact, and that's a long way away. Their influence was not only great but long lasting even to the present day.

  15. The Welsh likely have the most unchanged Celtic DNA as they were descended from the ancient hunter-gatherers who migrated into Britain and were not largely affected by Germanic and Viking invasions. The Scots and Irish were folded into the Norse Gael society during the Viking age. And the English are the result of combined rules of the Anglo-Saxons, Danes, Normans, and French.

  16. Thanks for another interesting & educational video. I have not gotten further back than the Mayflower on the female side. John Howland & Elizabeth Tilley are those ancestors. John was a servant yo a Puritan, Elizabeth was a daughter of a Captain Tilley.

  19. Bede is commonly known as the Venomous Bede in Wales, because of his stubborn ignorance of his neighbours, the Britons.

  20. Here's some fun info. The modern city of Cambridge in the UK is built on a Romano-British town called ''Duroliponte''. Generally translated as containing two roots. *Duro- 'crossing of/river crossing of' and 'Liponte'. The name of the Celtic peoples in northern Italy. So the town was originally called 'Crossing/Ford of the Liponte'. Is is possible that some of the Italian Celts also moved into Britain?

  21. I am descended from Clan Buchanan via a female ancestor born in Chester, England, in 1751. The book written by William Buchanan of Auchmar published in 1723 stated that the clan's origin was from a prince of Ulster who fled from Viking revenge to Scotland. Research by a descendant of one of her brothers shows that her ancestral heritage is from many clans, including the Stewarts and the Y-DNA haplogroup is R1b and a significant SNP is L1335 which he tells me is that of the ancient Britons and therefore not of Ulster origin as Buchanan of Auchmar had written all those years ago. I love watching your videos. They are very informative.

  22. That Wikipedia article also points out the connection between the Celts & Scythians ... So you are absolutely correct

  26. It was surprising to learn that Poland has such a Scandinavian signal among its population. My own DNA tests have revealed 30% Scotish ancestry but also 7% Norwegian and 2% Sweden and Denmark, which was very surprising and I have no idea who they were. It never ceases to amaze me the distances the Vikings traveled. Fascinating genetics and culture. Thank you for another interesting video.

  27. My moms clan name came from an action when an ancestor steered a charging bull away from a noble. Turnbull. Not sure who we were befor that. Thanks and I love your research

  33. Despite having auburn hair and blue eyes my mitochondrial haplotype is A.😁 Most my ancestors are from Scandinavia, but I also have a pretty significant percentage that are indigenous to North America.

  34. H10e here. Maternal (German, Dutch & Scandi- according to genealogy testing. A bit has been traced back to the first farmers. My dad is deceased but had some testing. Irish, Scots/Irish; R1b. I just LOVE these videos! Well done!!! 👍🏼 Brown hair, brown eyes.

  36. I come from a mix of Irish, Scottish, German, English, and Swedish ancestors my eyes are blue green with a dark blue outer ring. They look more one color or the other depending on my mood and colors around me.

  37. Yes. I share 2 segments of DNA with Cheddar Man. 68% of my DNA comes from the British Isle. 32%Scot, 24% Eng., 10% Irish, and 2%Welsh. The rest is northwest European. My haplo groups are x: U8a-1a Y: R-L20.

  40. The Law of Parsimony tells us Q-Celtic arrived in Britain with the first wave of Indo-European migration from the continent with P-Celtic arriving with the second. This explains how their grammar can be so complicated (way too complicated for a lingua franca) and how Welsh and Gaelic can be so different from each other. Also, some genetic genealogists are saying that Indo-Europeans were able to quickly spread through Europe 4500 years ago due to Bubonic Plague killing much of the neolithic population. Looks like lactase persistence may have been the game changer that made P-Celtic speakers prominent in Britain.

  41. I have hazel eyes...sometimes green, sometimes more brown. As a toddler my mother said my eyes would turn dark grey before it rained. I'm of Polish/Yugoslavian & Scandanavian background.

  42. Apparently there was one at the battle of Stamford bridge it was suggested he was a giant he apparently stood in the middle of the bridge fending off Anglo saxons until one of the Anglo saxons sailed under the bridge put a spear through him I'm English have a bit of Danish and Swedish DNA so thinking it was probably a distance Viking ancestor... Great video 👍🏻 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇪🇯🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

  43. My dad was red-headed, blue-eyed, about half Scot, about half Irish. We used to say he looked like a viking leprechaun. Very likely the Scot half was largely Pictish, being from Aberdeenshire, and having a particular genetic signature. The Scythians were well known for having lots of tattoos, as were it seems the Picts. I remember seeing a picture of a certain red-haired, bearded Georgian (Caucases) militant who looked a lot like my dad. Could have been his brother.

  44. As always, thank you for the lesson. It seems to me that the Bell Beeker people and the Corded Ware people may have a common ancestry.

  45. Double disc seems to be something like yin-yang and the z-rods is like a turbulent zone between those two. In my culture (slavic) there used to be that duality and the cyclic battle between them, which evolved later on into christian st jerry and snake.

  46. I'm a Canadian but my Scottish ancestors were the MacNicol Clan (my father's line) and the Douglas Clan (my mother's line). I have worked on my family tree for years and we have multiple connections to other clans including all three you mentioned here and I have DNA matches to back that up including a match to Robert The Bruce which I am very proud of due to my research showing I'm one of his descendants. I'm also a descendant of Sir James Douglas and John Wallace (William Wallace's brother) and again I have DNA matches to the Douglas Clan (I don't know if they have Sir James Douglas' DNA but I hope one day to prove that match) and I have a DNA match to William Wallace himself. One other DNA match I'm very proud of is to John Maknakill, the first MacNicol Chief on record. I cannot prove I'm one of his descendants due to the clan not being as well documented as the others mentioned but I am still proud of the DNA match. I believe he fought along side of Robert the Bruce and Sir James Douglas in the battle. What can I say, I love my Scottish roots. 🙂

  48. They are the last remnants of Ancient North Eurasians that dominated Northern Eurasia for 30k+ years. But mixed with Asian newcomers. The "indigenous" Siberians we think of today are all newcomers from Asia compared to them. Ancient North Eurasians spread the red/blond hair + light eyes + extremely light skin all throughout Eurasia. they are the only reason why that pheontype even exists in Europe. Indigenous Europeans had a much darker hair/skin/eye phenotype compared to ANE. The Celts got it from them too, naturally. But the Finno-Ugrics have less indigenous European and Middle Eastern admixture compared to other modern Europeans. haplogroups are a distraction, you can be descended from a people group to 99% and share none of their haplogroups. They can point you in the right direction, but you have to compare somatic chromosomes to find the real ancestral history.

  49. Could you also make a video about the Nordic expedition of the Greeks, under Pytheas?

  50. Wow! I am brazilian of portuguese descendance from both sides of my family and never expected the possibility of being related to celtics in any shape or form! I'll try to learn more since I'm trying to understand more of my roots. Thank you for the video! 😊
