Finally. I've been worrying about those "other people".

Now, as to those Danes being superior.....

[Clemenza]

1. The real "Aryans" lived in what is now northern India and Afghanistan.

2. The only real "caucasians" are the Armenians and Georgians. The term "caucasian" for white people is a purely American conception based on 19th century junk science.

[killjoy]

I guess that explains why Hitler had blond hair...

[givemELL]

“pseudo-scientific research” gee, where have I heard that recently...maybe about the environmental, climate change, global warming confusion network?

[SIDENET]

[sinanju]

Part of the problem seems to be that, as far as I know, anthropologists aren’t exactly sure where “whitey” comes from either. The Caucusus region or parts to the North were the general consensus until those ancient red-haired and blonde Xingiang mummies kicked over the ethnological applecart.

[CarrotAndStick]

[sinanju]

This just in: It seems StormFront.org (White Power) has a thread insisting that ‘ol Shickelgruber never actually stated anywhere that blonde hair and blue eyes should be the aesthetic ideal.

[SeeSharp]

"One of the Danish burial grounds, which dates back to the iron age also contained the remains of a man who appears to have been of Arabian origin," she added.

The thirteenth warrior?

[sinanju]

"Pytheas (Πυθέας), ca. 380 – ca. 310 BC) was a Greek merchant, geographer and explorer from the Greek colony Massilia (today Marseille, France). He made a voyage of exploration to northwestern Europe around 325 BC. He may have travelled around a considerable part of Great Britain, circumnavigating it between 330 and 320 BC. Pytheas is the first person on record to describe the Midnight Sun, the aurora and polar ice, the first to mention the name Britannia and Germanic tribes and the one who introduced the idea of distant "Thule" to the geographic imagination. He may have been the first Mediterranean observer to distinguish between the Germanic and Celtic "barbarian" peoples of northern and western Europe.[1] Pytheas was not the first Mediterranean mariner to sail up into the North Sea territories and around Great Britain. Trade between Gaul and Great Britain was routine; fishermen and others would travel to Orkney, Norway or Shetland. The Roman Avienus writing in the 4th century mentions an early Greek voyage, possibly from the 6th century BC. A recent conjectural reconstruction of the journey Pytheas documented has him traveling from Marseille in succession to Bordeaux, Nantes, Land's End, Plymouth, the Isle of Man, Outer Hebrides, Orkney, Iceland, Great Britain's east coast, Kent, Helgoland, returning finally to Marseille..." _____________________________________________________________ Although none of Pytheas' own writings have survived, he is referenced by several other ancient writers. He was considered controversial in his day and his contemporaries did not believe his descriptions of Far Northern phenomena. For our purposes he did describe a thriving commerce amongst peoples the Greeks and Romans insisted were primitive barbarians. These 2000 year-old Danish burials would have been 500 years AFTER Pytheas, so I doubt they were nearly as out-of-the-way as we like to think. Darn humans refuse to be pigeonholed!

[TheWasteLand]

Adolf Hitler's Aryan theory rubbished by science.

Is this news? Are they going to spend time rubbishing phrenology next?

[DieHard the Hunter]

This study is in itself junk science.

I wouldn’t have thought a burial ground that was only 2000 years old would have provided anything like “conclusive” evidence of anything, aside from the fact that there were dead people buried there.

You would expect a wide genetic variation in such a burial ground: 2000 years doesn’t even bring us back to the time of Julius Caesar, and plenty of useful history happened long before that.

Now, if their study found this variation in a burial ground of, say, 10,000 years age I’d be more impressed.

[chaos_5]

Hitler used pseudo-scientific research to back up claims that northern Europeans could form a Master Race.

Algore used pseudo-scientific research to back up claims that northern Americans could cause global warming.

LOL, I know it's off topic, but it just popped into my head so I posted it.

[americanophile]

this required a study?

[JudgemAll]

OKayyyy.... Are they saying people from the North are still superior, though? I’m confused.

[hellbender]

researchers say "that people from distant parts of the world could be and were absorbed in Danish communities"

I think the "researchers" are really libs trying to defend immigration of Muslims and other aliens into Denmark, and degrading Danish nationalism by associating it with Hitler.

[RoadTest]

“Hitler used pseudo-scientific research”

Algore is still doing that.

[sergeantdave]

Leftists, communists and Marxists are clearly the superior race. I hear it everyday from the media and the democrats.

[spanalot]

Listen Up People!

Hitler said what ever it took to get the vote.

He was anti gay, anti jew, anti communist only when it allowed him to get over that next hurdle

He was the ultimate flip flopper.

Sound familiar?

[fso301]

A historic technicality is that Hitler never said the Nordics were pure. He just said they retained more of their Aryan blood than anyone else.
