Moesia

Ancient district in eastern Europe, corresponding roughly to modern Serbia and Bulgaria. The inhabitants were subdued by the Romans in 29 BC and it was formally organized as a Roman province shortly before the death of Augustus in AD 14.

Moesia was bounded on the south by Thrace and Macedonia, on the west by Illyricum and Pannonia, on the north by the River Danube, and on the east by the Black Sea. The inhabitants were a Thracian people who were finally subdued by Roman forces under Marcus Licinius Crassus, grandson of Crassus the triumvir. The emperor Domitian (ruled AD 81–96) divided it into Moesia Superior (in the west) and Moesia Inferior (in the east), divided by the River Cebrus (modern River Maritsa).

Moesia Superior and Moesia Inferior were invaded by the Goths in 250 AD, and when the emperor Aurelian surrendered the Roman province Dacia to the Goths and moved its inhabitants south of the Danube, the central region of Moesia was called Dacia Aureliani.

A new study studied several Slavic populations with the aim of localizing the Proto-Slavic homeland. The significant findings of this study are that:

1. Two genetically distant groups of Slavic populations were revealed: One encompassing all Western-Slavic, Eastern-Slavic, and two Southern-Slavic populations (north-western Croats, Slovenes), and one encompassing all remaining Southern Slavs. According to the authors most Slavic populations have similar Y chromosome pools — R1a, and this similarity can be traced to an origin in the middle Dnieper basin of Ukraine during the Late Glacial Maximum 15 kya.[20]

2. However, some southern Slavic populations such as Serbs and Bulgarians are clearly separated from the tight DNA cluster of the rest of the Slavic populations. According to the authors this phenomenon is explained by „...contribution to the Y chromosomes of peoples who settled in the Balkan region before the Slavic expansion to the genetic heritage of Southern Slavs...”

„However, some southern Slavic populations such as Serbs and Bulgarians are clearly separated from the tight DNA cluster of the rest of the Slavic populations.”

I would like to know how they arrived at this phenomenon. I keep hearing about the percentages but how was the study or studies done? How many people did they test? Which villages did they test? Did they test groups of related families? Did they ask these families what kind of background they had? Did they ask these families if they had a forefather who came from elsewhere? All these kinds of questions matter and should be made available.

How can I have my DNA tested, and for free? It seems like there is a cost to find out with which haplogroup you belong. It should be a free service. It would be like a donation to research! That way they can find out even more about people.

Valid question, Rosanda, very much so!
But what do I do when and if I find out that I'm, God forbid, an Eskimo?

Bulgarians are Mongol tartars and Slav mixture which explains the very similer language.
