Instead of posting a comment, I’ll just do a ‘core dump’ on a post.
Know from history:
– Hungarian. Genetics indicates that far less than 10% (closer to 1%?) of the ancestry is from “Ugric” people (confounded by later migration of Turks, which bumps up ‘exogenous’)
– Most of the Romance languages. We have ancient Italian DNA. Outside of the Provence the spread of Latinate languages is through culture
– Most speakers of Turkic languages. In Turkey proper, the range of admixture is 10-20% (depending on how you calculate the mix of pastoralists in the 11th century after Manzikurt)
