The origins of the European race, a brief history.

 The origins of the European race

It's often stated that European migration into Europe started during the Neolithic  period of 10th millennium BC. Unfortunately, this is only when human beings can be traced by most scientists. Indo Europeans evolved ( especially from the Eastern Mediterrenrean basin ) around 37,000 to 40,000 years ago from a number of places that can be defined and where Indo European migration was dispersed into various parts of Europe. They're known commonly as Slavs, Nords, Celts and Mediterraneans.

 The origins of Mediterraneans

 The Mediterrenrean people were have to have started according to various definitions like the Fertile Cresent of Anatolia, Central Asia parts of the Levant and North Africa. The Mediterrenrean type of subspecies at the close of the Paleolithic spread from the basin of the Inland Sea northward by way of Spain throughout Western Europe in the Atlanto variant, including the British Isles, and, before the final expansion of the Alpines, was widely distributed up to and touching the domain of the Nordic Dolichocephalics. It did not cross the Alps from the South, but spread around the Mountains across the Rhine into Western Germany. The Alpine Mediterrenrean sub group is recognizable by their shorter to medium stature, round skulls and brown eyes and hair. 

Haplogroup H the oldest female haplogroup?

Haplogroup H is said to be one of the oldest female Indo European haplogroups to arrive in Europe from the Near East, around 40,000 years ago and is the most diverse maternal lineage in Europe, in most of the Near East and in the Caucasus region. The women who were named ''pioneers''  recolonized Europe after the end of the last Ice Age. With them they brought farming, agriculture, trading, pottery and architecture to Europe. One of the first populations of European females to carry haplogroup H were the ancient Minoans and Mycenaeans.

The origins of Nords and Celts 

The Nordic-Celts (  Gall-Ghàidheil ) are identified with the progenitors of the Norse Gaels, they were a people who dominated the UK during the Middle Ages. Their genetic and linguistic languages changed the culture of Western Europe and brought a new type of agriculture to the British Ises. Usually the descendants of Norse Germanics and the Gauls, they were have said to have immigrated to the UK after the late Bronze Age 1200 BC. In addition, in the 19th century, the first people to adopt cultural characteristics regarded as Celtic were the people of the Iron Age Hallstatt in central Europe (c. 800–450 BC)

Reminants of the Gauls in North Africa?

The Berbers are a distinct ethnic group in North Africa and one of the oldest. The name Berber derives from the Latin name Barbarus, or ''Peoples of the Sea'' who arrived in the area around 1200 BC and fought Ramses III. The Berber language is related to ancient Germanic languages. The Vandal rule of North Africa, explains the Germanic and Celtic  substratum influence in the Berber community. This linguistic connection results from the German rule in North Africa for 400 years. The Vandal rule in North Africa explains the origin of the Indo European speakers of this "language" family.

The original Slavs 

Slavs are Indo-European peoples who lived only in Eastern Europe before they spread to the areas which they today inhabit starting from 5th century-10century  A.D from the early medieval period . The first mention of the name Slavs dates to the 6th century, by which time the Slavic tribes inhabited a vast area of central-eastern Europe. Over the next few centuries, Slavs migrated further to the Baltic regions of South Eastern and Eastern Europe, the Alps in the South and West and the Volga to the North and West. Well over half of Europe is today inhabited by about 270 million people speaking one of the many Slav languages and dialects.  

Eastern European culture in Central Asia? 

The Indo European Culture that evolved into what was to be known as Aryan, originated in the Pontic Steppe region.

Indo Europeans, of various tribal names,were the first to domesticate the Horse, and have various tribal names, like Cimmerians, Sarmatians, Scythians, Parthians, Alans, Aryans, and were Equestrian Nomadic Warriors., Samaritans, Scythians, Parthians, Alans and were Equestrian Nordic warriors eventually they went on to occupy the Iranian High Plateau. Scythians penetrated from the territories north of the Black Sea across the Caucasus. The early Scythian kingdoms were dominated by inter-ethnic forms of dependency based on subjugation of agricultural populations in Eastern South Caucasia.
