Ping of interest.
the pima are indigenous (originating or occurring naturally in a particular place) but their ancestors came from far and wide
wtf
the mormons were right after all
England made the mistake of letting the savage it conquered immigrate directly into the heart of the empire. And now its homeland is in deadly peril.
Europe is a continent of immigrants.
Reading Gibbon (Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire) and reading other historical accounts ... it’s obvious that DNA would be dispersed far and wide.
Gibbon and many other authors record how a major perk for victorious armies was gathering the subject people and transporting them en masse (and sometimes to distances thousands of miles away from their homes) to be sold as slaves.
Slaves were currency in the ancient world.
For many centuries, this was a very typical practice and I am sure accounts for the wide disbursement of DNA
