Thanks for the post 'n ping, SC. Very interesting, if unsurprising. What the article does not say but implies is that the y-chromosomes are Danish but the mitochondrial DNA is Celtic. This, of course, would account for the Danish men "convincing" the Celtic women to join them on an exciting voyage to the west.
