Latest genetic data confirms the killer of the Roman Republic was Hannibal He lost the Second Punic War; but killed off a large chunk of the middle-class Roman Republic citizen-soldiers Italy was repopulated by Anatolians and Greeks, many of them slaves, as an unequal and unstable society

I wonder if there are Turkish nationalists of some sort out there who really love that movie, given that it is essentially the Iliad as adapted to /their/ national myth - Greeks as a weird, corrupt, domineering people, Anatolians as innocent sons of the land who just really Love Their Country.

Trojans in it actually look like actual Bronze Age Anatolians, not Greeks! They go to war like Anatolians! Because they would have been Anatolians!

Obviously Europe is not the only place (or even the first place) to adopt dairy and it may be unfair for me to view them as particularly farty. Especially when they got dairy from Anatolians migrating there from Asia. But the paper I read is looking at European genes and thus, European farts.

Mid 90s and humid here but our Anatolians do the same thing.

Because I am not, in fact, going to teach about the factors that draw travelers to Italian destinations. Unless they mean the expansion of Neolithic Anatolians into southern Europe some 6,000 years ago.

For the record, that character plays a critical role in my second novel and a little bit in my third. She's one of my favorite characters I've made, and also the most deadly. Her clothing is pretty much in line with the sort of thing anatolians likely wore at that time
