...more Kalash of Pakistan...

Descendants of Alexander the Great.





I recall reading somewhere that their DNA indicated origins in Italy and Germany. Alexander the Great's troops came from a wide swath of Europe.

It’s disputed whether the Kalash are really the descendants of Alexander’s troops, or the remnants of the original Aryans from much earlier.

There’s a bit of hypothesizing about the origins of the blue eyed blonds in Central Asia. One is that they were there all along ~ all the way to what is now Western China. Through time East Asian people have moved into the region.

Maybe not Alexander the Great descendants. Our troops have been over there, right? Maybe some CIA offspring too.
