Are you REALLY Celtic?

[sharpdressedscot]

So, do we have in this proof that Celts are descended from the Greeks? or from the Neanderthals?

Actually,humans are not descended from neanderthals.

I kinda doubt if you have the "Celtic toe" it means you're Celtic, highly doubt it.

Actually, that is not so certain. After all, Neanderthals WERE humans as well as us, homo sapiens. To the best of my knowledge, there continues to be debate as to whether the two species(?) were able to reproduce together.

Incidentally, I seem to have the "celtic" foot, but got it from a different line that my Galician grandmother. What does that mean?

Five generations without an immigrant and my toes are even. Man, I'm puttin' on the kilt and going out for a Guiness.

I do not have a "celtic foot" but then, I am from Norman stock.

I think that this smacks of eugenics, rather than the scientific method of genetics. The Nazi party was fond of that sudo-science, and look where it took them.

I would disagree strongly with that, HIghland. People here have simply been discussing family traits. It's just like when I met a cousin for the first time from a branch of the family which had lost touch. I was wearing sandals, and she looked at me in surprise and said, "You have Daddy's feet!

Additionally, I am pretty sure that my father's remaining family in Europe was wiped out by the Nazis, so I would be reacting just as strongly if I felt the same as you.
