Genetic studies on bodies are not a “modernist industrialist push to shadow our history and origins“ and I have no idea why you would write such a sentiment.

Watch my video on my 23andMe results, you’ll catch on pretty quick.

Dacian Reenactment in Moldova. Interestingly the Romanians; although speaking a non Thraco-Dacian dialect are very conscious of their indigenous Balkan roots and culture. Every year there are Dacian and Thracian reenactment groups all over Romania and Moldova with full crowds of spectators, tourists and Romanian Pagans known as Zalmoxians. Why Bulgaria and Serbia don't have these things is a question I can't answer; but I believe the cause is purely political.

Tocharian Mummy. From this 4000 year old woman we can conclude that our ancestors did not just inhabit Europe. Once upon a time ago the Eurasian Steppe, north asia and China was inhabited by peoples descendents of the proto-indo europeans of R1A paternal lineage known as the Saka people; or Scythians commonly known. Like the Nomadic Scythians, the Tocharians were the most eastern branch of these Europeans who inhabited and thrived in the Tarim Basin of Western China. This particular woman is of a maternal lineage common to women in Russia today. You probably wouldn't need the extra science to figure out who is descendant of this Tocharian woman. We are often unconfedant about who are ancestors were because of the modernist industrialist push to shadow our history and origins; it is not a shame to judge by your own intuition and two eyes. With all the talk and hype of human DNA and Haplogroups things can get jumbled up and confusing, which is why we should be more confident in interpreting what we can see and not have to rely on paid out scholars and machines; this is how our ancestors interpreted the natural world around them, simply put; with the senses they are born with.

Traditional Polish Dress. // Every day we are bombarded with things that try to step in the way of us being the best physically, mentally and metaphysically enlightened beings that we can be. If you want to be the best you that you can be, you will learn that in order to achieve greatness, you need discipline. Motivation comes and goes, it’s great when we have it, but it sucks when we lose it. Discipline is being firm and putting your foot down to your own self, because you know that only YOU, can get YOU, where YOU want to be. No one else. Stop drowning in self-pity and make the best of your life. Those who do this are wise and honourable; hamingja will follow you through reincarnation.

Crimea. Supposedly named after the Cimmerians an Eastern Thracian tribe. The Cimmerians much like the Cimmerians from Robert E Howard's Conan the Barbarian were the hyperborean extent of the Thracians who lived north of the Black Sea conquering territories in the Caucuses and the Pontic-Caspian Steppe.

St. Vasilij’s Day is a festival held in Macedonia, similar to the Kukeri festivals in Bulgaria. Although, St. Vasilij’s day in today’s modern times is taken with a different approach, the festival has its pre-Christian, Pagan roots. In ancient times, people created masks and costumes, to embody themselves as the soul within them, the ancestor. By nightfall, all costumes and masks are taken to be burned as a ritualistic ‘purification’.

“It is thus with me, Persian: I have never fled for fear of any man, nor do I now flee from you; but as to the reason why I do not straightway fight with you, this too I will tell you. For we Scythians have no towns or planted lands, that we might meet you the sooner in battle; we have the graves of our fathers; come, find these and essay to destroy them; then shall you know whether we will fight you." Scythian King to Darius of Persia. The Scythians ancestors to modern day Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians were one of the most feared forces of the ancient world. Inconquerable and unpredictable; at one point an entire Roman cohort out in the Russian Steppe was conducting its training, the grass was calm as was the wind and out of nowhere several whistling arrows disoriented the entire cohort, focussed on an attack from the right flank it came from behind; as they assumed defensive formations the Scythians encircled the entire cohort firing their poisonous arrows at the centre; it was like target practice, mentions Plutarch; none survived. The Scythian bow was an accurate masterpiece of antiquity that inspired later Turkic Steppe archery. What's important to note is that they established a trade root around the Black Sea into the Balkans selling their arrows to the Thracians and Illyrians. Scythian archery revolutionised Thracian and Illyrian ranged combat which prior, mostly relied on javelin throwing and slinging.
