It's odd that all European anthropologists, historians and geneticists agree that there were two waves of peoples into Europe. The first being 30,000 ago from the East settling in the Mediterranean basin BUT the Greeks refuse to accept this.
You guys think you're so special that you're a breed apart. LOL.
ok and this based on Coon and Greek elementary books!
Consistent DNA testing (and not just HLA's but also mtDNA) in the most reputable magazines have shown the Greeks are being the least indo-european and most middle-eastern of the Europeans. Even more than Sicilians.
Grow up!
Also if you guys think you're less mixed than the Cypriots are then you really do need a wake-up call.
Suffice it to say you'll *always* be the only people thinking this and,as you are now, just ridiculed.
I feel embarrased actually for you lot.
