@anishsthoughts: Which modern day people are most genetically similar to the Indus Valley Civilization? #IndusValleyCivilization #India #Pakistan #southasia #southasian

BatButa :

So Pakistani…

ZH2001 :

Modern Sindhi people carry one of the most direct and highest proportions of genetic ancestry linked to the ancient Indus Valley Civilization. Genome-wide analyses show that roughly 57% to 67% of Sindhi genetic ancestry traces directly to the Indus Valley periphery, making them a primary modern proxy for the ancient population.

IVC aint got no type... brown baddies is the only thing that I like..

That one :

Once again, a Pakistani is trying to force us into Pakistani topics. Baloch presence in what is now called Balochistan is the result of a very very recent migration. We have no connection to the ancient Indian civilizations. I'll repeat, our presence is recent migrations during the 17th and 18th centuries. As for the claim that we have 10–20% AASI, that level is found among Punjabis and Sindhis who claim to be Baloch. This happens often lol. When my people arrived recently, they ruled parts of southern Punjab and many Punjabis adopted our name. So, to put it another way, Baloch don’t have 10–20% AASI. it is either absent or around 5% at most. If it weren’t for the British, you would never have thought of us today as part of your Indian subcontinent. Jeez leave us alone, people with no dignity

LEE :

punjab and Sindh

Globalguy :

This is so fake, three quarters Iranian is not true

tml_1 :

IVC were Tamil

RAJPUT DNA :

this priest king figure from indus valley has steppe narrow and straight nose.

chops :

My ancestors 🥹 Punjabi Jatt

funklestein_ :

The Rakhigarhi skeleton did not show a 75/25, there was no exact percentage shown in the study. Newer studies estimate that the IVC was closer to 50/50 as the previous genetic models were inaccurate.

Why are we surprised that there were Persian and Arab people in Índia? 🤔 having middle eastern features is not depicted in ancient indian temples or sculptures. No devi was depicted with fair skin and big noses either until colonization by Arabs, Turks, Persians, Portuguese and brits

DDJ :

Gujjus and Sindhis have the most but Punjabis have a significant amount too

☀️Jaime☀️ :

Both South and North Indians share an ancestral connection to Africa too, stemming from the single Out-of-Africa migration roughly 60,000 years ago. The primary difference lies in their proportion of ancient indigenous Asian DNA versus later Eurasian migrations: South Indians retain a much higher percentage (50% to 70%+) of the original hunter-gatherer foundation that first settled the continent, whereas North Indians carry lower amounts of this initial bedrock due to greater genetic mixing from later West Asian and Eurasian Steppe arrivals. While South Indians preserve more of the earliest Eurasian lineage that expanded out of Africa, both groups are equally separated from modern African populations by tens of thousands of years of independent evolution.

ppgabpooga :

I thought this was common sense, considering Mehrgarh (a society predating the IVC) is in Balochistan

vegemities :

so basically everybody is a colonizer

De Booty :

I would’ve thought Sindhis have a lot of IVC compared to the rest simply cos of where they are geographically

The Crystal Cove :

Rakhi Garhi is not really a proper Indus Valley Site. It doesn’t have some of the typical Indus Valley characteristics.

Cyrus Kabazan :

I had read about this, but if you think about it, it make intuitive sense

Boredahwyl :

very interesting

J :

Bull

Farrukh :

so what their Y DNA

pahadslayer :

Going back in time to get me a IVC baddie 😏
