A recent discovery has it that the broad masses of Bengladesh, India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan share two major lineages ~ Persian and the group ancestral to the Andaman islanders. In doing numerous DNA studies the researchers found that ALL Indian subcontinent people have those two lineages, with no others of any note. The general appearance of individuals has nothing whatsoever to do with the percentage of either lineage in the background.
In short Indians are very mixed.
Could you link that please? Or any article relating to the DNA track that leads to (these) conclusions? Post them somewhere else if you like so it doesn't appear like a hijack in progress. Thank you.
Nice post.
And as a food lover I can only fantasize about the barberic tasty cooking.

If I ever get granted another blessed move I will return to family (commies but I am the Catholic) in the deep south of the islands.

Same with my tribe.
Very Negro in the south PI
Then came the Spanish and up north the Japenese.
But before mixing the malato the Filipinos down South were very nappy headed black.
The in breed of Spain made for some in my time there (had hormones not practicing human restraint) very tall light skinned Island attornerys.
My adoptive Mother is there now and bragging.
