Malay-Mongol gap is smaller than Kalash-Paniya gap.

Distance to: Malay
0.26268126 Mongolian

Distance to: Kalash
0.29183025 Paniya

you’re making your argument based on a cladogram with data from less than 100 markers from the 80s. i have data with 300,000 markers with many of those populations.

your comment is stupid. i’m not going to answer you anymore, you aren’t serious

This was the chart I was referring to, the genetic distance between Malaysians and Mongols or between Malaysians and Samoyed or between Polynesians and Mongols or between Polynesians and Samoyed is much greater than the genetic distance between Europeans and South Asians: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7a/Populations.png

When comparing NE Asians, Arctic populations, Siberians, indigenous American populations and SE Asians, it would be easy to find a genetic distance among them greater than that between europeans and South Asians.

Is this a true conclusion? If the distance between Mongolians or Siberians and Indonesians is examined for example? Are there better examples?
