    My very DNA is evidence of this subject matter. My mother's family is East Frisian and my father's family is North-Rhine Westphalian. A recent DNA ancestry test left me confused. The East Frisian was distinct as well as the NRW. I was not prepared for the Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, South England, Iceland, Faroese, and Baltic DNA. The Baltic DNA was found from Estonia/Latvia south to Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. No DNA was identified as Russian. I concluded my ancestors were Viking pirates.

    One thing needs to be stressed, Ibn Khordadbeh's account of the "Slavic origin" of the Rus' isn't that important because of the date of the said account, but because he specifies their affiliation based on ethnic origin, whereas Ibn Fadlan specifies their affiliation based on shared profession (he denotes the Bulgars as "Rus" too because of war profiteering and human trafficking), not to mention that his "description" of the "Varangian's leader's ship burial" is an irrefutable proof that the man/men in question weren't Rus/Rurikids because not a single Rurikid, both pagan and Christian, was laid to rest in a ship burial.

    Novgorod was built upon a previous settlement known as Gorodishche and was ruled by Ilmen Slovenes. After the unification with Varangian Slavs or Vagrians (according to Adam von Bremen) from current area of Poland and Germany, who ruled over the city of Stargard or "Old City" (Gard meant "City"; surrounded area, like Garden... with "fences"), they moved their capital city to Gradishche and was called New City or Novgard or Novgorod. This is why Varangians or Vagrians were never Vikings, who were simply Jarl tribes. If some "runes" were found on current area of Russia it does not mean they were of "viking" (old swedish) origin. Actually this script known as "runes" at least 10 000 - 20 000 years older... even Turks were using it, not only Slavs. You can even find traces of them in old Vinca script, Kamyana Mohila (Ukraine), Africa, even pre Columbian America... I have successfully translated many inscriptions from Ladoga area into Slavic and nobody even tried to touch those inscriptions or translate them into any similar to Slavic...If we leave the "Slavic", "Germanic" nationalisms behind... rulers were generally intermarrying among different noble, rich families, for them there did not exist important claims as "slavic, germanic"... for them existed rather "from this or that noble family"... There remained more than 500 slavic or "wendic" words in current Swedish language and no other way around in current Russian. Period. And Rus simply means Rusast (try to translate this word through slovenian ) which means "red".

    In Polish legend there were 3 brothers who arrived on horses in area covered by forest: Lech (Polish) Chech (Chechs/Slovaks) & Rus (Russians), and started 3 nations. They had to speak pre-indoeurpean language, very close to Sanscrit (Sintashta, Yamnaya) and their ancestors came from Ural, or earlier maybe from Beringia, which provided flora and fauna for the nomad people in the worst ice ages when North Europe was uninhabitable. They were not native around Baltic - other people, related possibly to Doggerland survivors, with haplogroup I, could live there much longer. The arrival of three brothers had to be just before or at the begining of bronze age. The most upsetting is how the aggressors - Germanic people changed history - sure they destroyed all signs of cultures existing esspecially in Poland. Russians are not better, trying to prove their supremacy. Now they talk about Wends, Kuronians and other, very high cultures established much earlier then Vikings or Germans, also those who migrated South - Slovenia, Macedonia, Croatia, Bosnia but how little is left in Poland (there were always very close connections with Scandinavia, including marriages of medieval kings and queens). The language barier also not letting information spread to English speaking world and opposite. Important... word Slavonians did not exist in ancient times.... much later, when Vikings started robberies and slavery was common the fate of enslaved Slavic males was castration!

    The land of Novgorod is Finno-Ugric lands. Most of the ancient hydronyms and toponyms there are Finno-Ugric and, a little less often, Baltic. The Slavs in the north are late newcomers. Most Russians consider themselves Slavs, but in reality they are Slavicized Finno-Ugrians or mixed with Slavs. Lake Ilmen was one of the early trading posts, where merchants and artisans came to sell or exchange goods. This product was brought either from Western Europe or along the Volga from the Middle East. Then the center of trade shifted south, to the Dnieper River. The word Kyiv is of Ugric origin and bears its name from the time of the Scythians, who were among the first to use the Dnieper River for trade with “Byzantium” and the Mediterranean countries. It is only known that before the Rus, trade was controlled by the Khazars. The Khazars were dominated by Jews. The Rus simply seized power there, descending from the north. This is how the history of Russia begins. By the way, most of Rurik’s descendants have haplogroup N1c. This is the second largest haplogroup among Russians after R1a. But the subclade of this haplogroup most likely actually formed in Scandinavia. Thus, the Ruriks were very close in origin to the Finno-Ugric tribes. By the way, most of the hydronyms and toponyms of western, northern and central Russia are also of Finno-Ugric origin, including such names as Moscow, Oka, Vyazma, Volga, Dvina, Ruza, Yauza. Ruza, Yauza, Moscow are the names of large rivers in the Moscow region. All of them are also Finno-Ugric. Russians are assimilated Finno-Ugric tribes, such as Muroma, Merya, Veps, Karelians, Chiduans, Moksha, Shoksha, Erzya and etc. But the fact is that they are also heavily mixed with the Slavs. And the difference between Russia and Ukraine is precisely that in Ukraine the Finno-Ugric component is much smaller than in Russia. Ukrainian nationalists know this and even use the word “Moksha” as a disparaging word for Russians.
