Per PCA and qpAdm modeling and Y-lineage data, Albanians are a people of largely Bronze-to-Iron Age and Roman-Imperial-Era southeast European ancestry who gained substantial Slavic admixture during the end of Late Antiquity and the beginning of the Early Middle Ages.
Due to the absence of genetic profiles from Bronze-to-Iron Age central southeast Europeans, like central-northern Dardanians and Daco-Thracian groups s…

At the ending of Plato’s Gorgias, Socrates explains the judgement of souls in Hellenism. He says that the Gods constructed death as the perfect trial for virtue in the soul because it is unpredictable and revealing. No one knows when he/she will die and no one can take any of his/her possessions or status beyond death. Therefore, there is nothing to hide one’s true nature. Each soul is “naked,” revealed for what it t…

“Religion was part of your ethnicity. It was part of your family. It was part of the location where you were.”
— Religious Scholar Paula Fredriksen speaking about traditional European religions.
This is why, today, terms like ‘Jew’ or ‘Hindu’ refer to both an ethnic group as well as to a religion. In the ancient past, they were one and the same.
Europeans have been deracinated from this reality. We must return to…

“The Gods are always good and always do good and never harm, being always in the same state and like themselves.

This is direct Platonism, where knowledge is the same as being, not merely holding a concept.

No wonder then modern people no longer believe in objective truth. They don’t even know the true nature of knowledge.
It is not belief, but identity with the known.

I have criticized Christianity to a large extent. So, now, I will instead say some good things for the sake of balance.
Jesus is obviously an important part of the European consciousness, and so are the stories of Christianity. While not perfect, the religion did elevate aspects of love, purity, goodness, and self-sacrifice in the European psyche.

Using PCA, Bronze Age and Iron Age models on modern southeast Europeans do not currently work because there are not yet any ancient samples for: (1) Iron Age Illyrians east of Dalmatia, (2) Iron Age Dardanians, (3) Iron Age Dacians.

A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999.
