@@Scarizza no. What im saying is there is single genome ethnicity of Indigenous Peoples of the Americas.

Yes present day western hemisphere living you will see mixing of genomes (ethnicities)... but there still remains multitudes of single genomes (ethnicities) in mixed person. So no Africans did not contribute to Native American ethnicity (they are 2 seperate ethnicities), no Asians do not contribute to Native American ethnicity (they are 2 different ethnicities) & no Oceanian people largely have not contributed to the Native American genome (they are 2 different ethnicities) with the exception of the Karitiana tribe in the Amazon but still that is only one of the many tribes in the Amazon. So in short Indigenous Peoples of the Americas, Africans, Asians, Europeans & Oceanians are all different major Ethnic groups in the world.

Their East Asian and Western Eurasian ancestors had already mixed in Siberia before they came to America, creating a mixed population (so it's not that there was one fully Western Eurasian wave that came over). Also, the Western Eurasian ancestral component probably came from somewhere around Western Siberia or somewhere just West of west Siberia/northern Eurasia rather than any particular origin in the Levant (The article says that group was related to Europeans and Middle Easterners because those groups are Western Eurasian too.).

Nice! Got a lot of material that's been suggested covered in this video. Some brainstorming: 1. My usual reiterations of what you have not done yet (thank you for doing many of them btw) 2. Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim, Assam, Nagaland, Tibet, etc. 3. World's Esperantist population (and other artificial languages that actually form a community) 4. Vikings of the Baltic/Ingria Region/Alands/Bornholm/Gotland, Saaremaa, etc.-the lesser known areas of northern Europe with some fascinating backgrounds. This is where you can analyze Doggerland as well. Also, the Tornedalians and Jamtland might be interesting to analyze as well. 5. Nan Modal on the island of Pohnpei in Micronesia 6. Nauru, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, etc. (you can discuss the upcoming independence referendum on Bougainville Island on 10/15/2019 in this) 7. ****The LESSER known islands and peoples of Indonesia (or the Philippines as well for that matter) 8. Seychelles-The Seychellois are a creole type group that I think would fit well with this. 9. What is a "Chicano"? (One definition I've studied is that after the Mexican American War, people of Mexican descent living in areas that became the USA remained there and became the indigenous Hispanic culture of the USA. Is there truth to that?) 10. I still think analyzing the people's of the Southeast Pacific would be fascinating. You'd obviously include The Galapagos and Easter Island, but there are other inhabited areas that are really interesting as well. 11. French America in New England (look up French Azilum in Pennsylvania as well). The former independent countries of this area (such as the Vermont Republic) would be interesting. 12. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creole_peoples 13. Jews of China, India, and East Asia (Kaifang Jews, Cochin Jews, etc.) 14. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Islands_Americans 15. kzread.info/dash/bejne/gpZnprNtpaawg8Y.html 16. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nJiN2a-Fg7Gunrg.html 17.

actually All Asians(east ,south east asians ,Austronesians,central asians ) including native Americans stem from Same paleo Siberian root it all began by people around 60,000 years ago who made separate journey from the Middle East Perhaps by following mammoth and bison herds over the Asian steppes, or grassy plains and when they arrived in southern Siberia by 43,000 years ago during that period The isolation of humans in the severe north produced the Mongoloid racial type. This race is best suited to survive extreme cold, with stocky build, small extremities, relatively little body or facial hair, flat faces, and fat padded eyes. and later as revealed by discoveries of ancient tools Developed during the Neolithic period the retreat of the ice in nomads of the steppes. made Several expansions towards to Asia. who eventually became chinese ,Austronesian,Japanese etc but at same time one particular people who further spread farther north and east Those descendants will make the first trip to the Americas about 20,000 years later

Well some Siberians came to what is now Canada, as far as the Atlantic. And some of their descendants married French and Scottish soldiers who stayed in Canada after the conquest of Quebec. They are called "Métis", mixed people who adopted European culture.Most Métis probably do not know they are mixed. I didn't until age 75. There exists in Canada today, spread from coast to coast bits of the Siberian genome, probably more in aggregate than before Europeans arrived.

Very good video. Thank you. However, there can be no direct comparison between colonisation of Siberia by Russian Empire and colonisation of other continents by Christian nations, especially North America. My own grandfather was from a small Western Siberian people who lived in what is modern Tomsk region. My grandmother's ancestors were the first cossacks who claimed that territory for the Russian Empire in 1602. The history of my family is well documented and I can tell you that there was NO genocide. There was no forced conversion to Christinanity either. My grandfather's ancestors became Christian in 1762, this is 160 years after they were officially counted and recorded for tax purposes and basically left to their own devices. The small peoples of that region before the Russians came paid taxes to Tatar khans who protected them from the nomads. So it was normal for them to swear allegiance to another power and carry on. The number of "conquering Russians", who in fact were ethnically very diverse, was very small they built fortresses and relied on the natives to make up the numbers to protect the new frontier against the nomadic raiders from the south and south-east (called collectively Kirgiz/ though this is not quite accurate, of course). Some more numerous peoples in Eastern Siberia and Russian Far East did put up a resistance. For example, Chukcha people. It took them approximately 150 years to warm up to the other peoples in the Russian Empire, not just Russians. Maybe sometimes the interests of the Empire took precedence over the interests of the native peoples of Siberia, but they were never deiberately suppressed as is evidenced by so many prominent and famous people in Russian history who came from their midst. Over time there were a lot of intermarriages with settlers coming to farm in Siberia from Central areas of the Russian Empire as is evidenced by the tens of thousands of Church records I have studied just for Tomsk region alone. Yes, there were millions of people who made a long journey with their families to resettle in Siberia as many areas of this vast territory are very fertile. The cliche about people ending up in Siberia only against their will is outdated. Think of it as Australia. Yes, they too sent criminals there, but this is only a small part of the country's history. In 1878 in Tomsk there was a University and only 2 prisons. During Soviet Union ethnic minorities as they were called were given a lot of attention including priority for education and development. They were accepted into top universities without exams. Their culture was promoted, they were given opportunity to develop their own literature. Tomsk University has traditionally supported research of Ket and Selkup (very small local ethinc groups) languages and folklore. I spent 5 years in Kamchatka (Russian Far East) as a child. I went to a typical kindergarten along with children of many nationalities including children from local ethnic groups. We learnt about the culture of the local coastal and tundra peoples and their dances, songs and customs, including shamanic. I do remember that the children of the raindeer herders were sometimes forcibly taken from their families to be put into boarding schools. This was done because primary and junior education was compulsory. Compare this to not letting your child go to school in the UK, or even simply letting them play truant - you will be prosecuted, and in worst cases your children will be taken away by Social Services. I also remember that some children were not used to certain foods and complained about digestive problems. Again, the school meals had to be balanced and the same for everyone. Perhaps these issues, and some other ones could have been handled better. But apart from newborn nationalists I can't imagine anyone from the Siberian ethnic minorities who has actually lived during the Soviet times honestly claiming there was a drive to make them extinct. I was brought up to respect every human being, ehtnic group and people and encouranged to learn about them.This would not be possible in the country with a history of colonial arrogance.

Exactly! Ignorant Americans without any knowledge & experience of Russian/Siberian history, make baseless assumptions that Russia = American colonisation. They just fill in the blanks with their own American history. Russia is very “unracist” compared to divisionist politics in America. It has never been subject to any mass ideological issues with regards to racism, since Russians had been in close contact with many other ethnic groups on its modern territory way back in time. That being said, there were armed conflicts before, however, the numbers of deaths were exceptionally small and on both sides. Part of the reason the smaller groups could be easily conquered as part of Russian Empire was because they were in constant fighting in between each other though. The other part was the gradual settlement of Russians further to the east, as the contacts were already established, so the Russian population outnumbered.

There's no such thing as "good colonisation", if russia is so good to indigenous people, why they dont have any kind of autonomy? Why indigenous leaders in Russia are labeled as "foreign agents"? (the irony in this is almost laughable), people only believe in this because the West is uneducated about Russian colonialism in north Asia, Caucasus and central Asia, Russians are no exception, they're colonialists just like the British.

Hey Mason, anthropologist for Siberia and the Far North here! I have some remarks you might find interesting: 1.) Ainu people have been living in southern Kamchatka and the Kurile Islands, not just on Sakhalin (where there are actually about a hundred persons claiming to be Ainu). So no wonder that their genetics are being found around the Okhotsk sea. 2.) Since Russian politics and even social sciences self-censor on the term of 'colonisation' (instead, they use 'voluntary affiliation'. No joke.), it would have been great to dedicate a few seconds to the cruelty with which the Cossacks conquered the peoples of the Northeast. Further reading: contemporary witness Georg W. Steller describing the genocide on the Itelmen people in his travelogue. 3.) Siberian Eskimos are actually remigrants from Alaska. Weird paardox here: first contact with the white man in Siberia was with American, so in Siberian Yupik 'cow' phonetically resembles the English word, while in Alaskan Yupik the same term is a phonetic assimilation of Russian 'korova'. 4.) Pomors are not recognized by Russian legislation as an own people. Moreover, a few years ago there have been raids against Pomor leaders to keep any national movement down. 5.) Chukchees were still not that long ago into bridenapping. Still in the 1950s there were reports on abducted Russian teachers in the region, and even of abducted negro women from Alaska. Not a real contribution to any of your points made, but maybe still interesting, as you obviously have some interest in fun facts of anthropology. 6) Great example of ethnic and linguistic shifts in Siberia are the Soyots: initially having been Sayan-Samoyeds, they have been first turkicized by Khakas and Tuvans (other Samoyedic People thus fled from Southern Siberia to the Far North, see Nganasan people), and then monogolicized. So they have a mix of everything: Samoyedic DNA, a Turkic dialect, and Mongolic customs.

From what I have heard in history class, Native Americans do have distant connections to Siberians, but the Bering Strait land bridge was more like a huge landmass of its own that was somewhat cut off from the rest of north Asia, which is why even though they are the closest relatives to Native Americans, Siberians are still very distinct genetically. Idk

No such thing as a mixed person. This is a western idea that goes against the very book they claim to abide by. You are whatever your father is. The woman has zero bearing on ethnicity on the child.

Or in the case of all of southeast Asia , Indonesia, Japan , Philippines, and possibly the new world Asian mongoloids completely wiped out the Australoid race(think Ainu or Australian aboriginals).
