Why Armenian DNA Shows an 8000-Year Unbroken Lineage documentary
This documentary delves into the secrets of Armenian DNA, revealing an unprecedented story of Genetic Continuity spanning eight millennia. Using Ancient DNA, we explore the Armenian Highlands, the homeland of Neolithic Farmers and Caucasian Hunter-Gatherers. We’ll investigate how their Armenian Ethnogenesis created a Genetic Isolate that survived the Bronze Age Collapse and negated theories from Herodotus. This journey into Population Genetics covers the rise of Urartu, the trauma of the Armenian Genocide, and the strength of the Armenian Diaspora. It is a story about Human Evolution and Ancient Civilizations, revealing how an Unbroken Lineage serves as a Genetic Map for a resilient people. This is a deep dive into Anthropology and the very essence of National Identity, where science uncovers a powerful story of Survival and Resilience in the South Caucasus.

It's true lot of Armenian people vanish over thousands of years in diaspora. moreover villages the ones were hidden in Armenian highlands were cut off few hundred of years from each other when enemies conquered Armenia, just for that reason, Armenian language has more dialects than any languages on this planet.
Lots of flowery words. . . how about some actual information? 🤔
Please send this video to Aliyev.
The greater Armenia 🇦🇲 that expanded from Mediterranean sea to the caspian sea
❤💙🧡 👍👍👍
Anatolia just means east in Greek! Turks started calling the Armenian Plateau Anatolia to erase the word Armenian after they committed the most horrendous genocide in the world in 1915!

👍⚘️
well researched
need more of same
well done and easy commentary
Such a meaningful message, but the message was lost because the producer dragged it out too long and too repetitive. Go back, cut out all the dead wood, and re-produce this. It will have much more relevance.
Excellent documentary, now lets see what our neighbors in Azerbaijan will claim as theirs.
I am Armenian 🇦🇲
From valley of Ararat. 💜💜💜
Mighty God gave the Land to His people, the Armenians are children of Light- The Armenias, with determination and perseverance, have reached the highest spiritual and moral goals.
It is amazing, despite all wars and persecutions, unwanted invasion from hostile neighbouring countries still survived.
Is '' reprogramming'' simple? Can a victory mentality be achieved overnight? No! To some achievers, this becomes a crisis. To only solution is DON'T STOP! Please have patience, keep working at it. And remember, even the snail, by perseverance, reached Noah's Ark.
Armenians are considered God's chosen people, His true people; for this reason, the Lord Jesus sent two of His Apostles to Armenia to teach for His purpose, and they fulfilled many biblical prophecies, especially those found in the New Testament.
The Lord says, "And all will hate you for My name." He who endures to the end, will be saved." (Matthew 10:22) But all this will be done for the sake of. My name is because they do not know the One who sent Me (John 15:22).
Moreover, Jewish and Christian Armenians are worshipping the same God- the good news- Many Jews are coming to Christ- Go and read (Isiah 53) – and this is about Azerbjians those pagan and wicked nations coming out of darkness –and Repent, – Lord God allow those wicked nations Azeris, Turks to repent-stop from wickedness and lies- and repent and believe. Lord Jesus, disciple and Ambassador.
Armenian 啊 不饿of 哦 那 bible 第三 in 啊阿拉蕾 摸尸体 放入哦没啊 in united 施塔特of American。。。
It is not Armenia that is in the Caucasus, but the Caucasus is in Armenia. At least all the ridges of the Lesser Caucasus (even now most of them) are on the territory of Armenia. And the Greater Caucasus was at times the northern border of Greater Armenia, and sometimes some North Caucasian tribes and territories were part of the confederate Armenian state, such as the kingdom of the Armenian Bagratuni. Armenia is the cradle of the civilization. Armenia is the homeland of the Caucasian race. Armenia is the homeland of the Aryans. Armenia is the Terrestrial Eden. Read the Bible.
Long live Armenia! Very fascinating history
I have a tiny bit of Armenian which makes sense since Georgia and Armenia are neighbors
My grand dad is 8001 years old and he remembers the Armenians!
He witnessed!
So, Believe this video!
GREAT ARMENIA GOD BLESS
Can you make this any longer. Very poorly written narration. Sounds like a student wanting to use every new word he's learned.
❤ god bless Armenia🇦🇲🙏💪
Were is 🐏🐏🐏🐑🐑🐑?
Irish, English, Scottish Italian (especially Liguria, Toscanini) have Armenian DNA, mostly Irish.
Abraham was from Urfa again from Anatolia.
Ozzie the iceman according to new un contaminated DNA test revels was from Anatolia Western Armenia occupied by Turks hence the Armenian Genocide. Turks killed over one million Armenians, took their lands, wealth and the genocide continues now by newly created (1930’s) Turkic's country Azerbaijan. There is also big effort for the last 200 years falsifying Armenian history, epic poems etc.
Would’ve been nice to show Armenian faces not Chinese or other, Armenian language is also the mother of Indo-European languages, older than Greek, Sunscrit. They say Hittites, Hittites were one of the Armenian tribes also Sumerians who went towards south and settled there.
Beautiful History ❤❤❤
In short, the “8000-year unbroken lineage” is acknowledged, but wrapped in a vocabulary that masks the Armenian identity behind neutral geographic tags — a modern way of doing what older Orientalist history did outright.
The use of Anatolian, Levantine, Iranian, or CHG instead of simply saying “Armenian” (in the historical sense) is a form of geographic abstraction. It detaches the population from its real, continuous identity and allows the narrative to be reshaped so that:
• Ancient states and cultures that were Armenian in origin — Hittites, Hurrians, Urartians, Mitanni, Phoenicians, etc. — can be reframed as separate unrelated peoples.
• The cradle of civilization is moved to “Mesopotamia” or “Anatolia” as though Armenia/Aratta were not central.
• The PIE (Proto-Indo-European) question is kept as an unsolved academic puzzle, even though genetic, archaeological, and linguistic evidence lines up with historical Armenia as its origin point.
• Artificial chronologies maintain the illusion of multiple “founders” rather than one civilizing source — the Armenian homeland.
Thanks for your work ❤️💙🧡
Լ0ng Life Armenia 🇦🇲
The Urantia Book says differently about Armenians!
Thank YOU!
Facts about Armenians every educated person should know:
1 fact :
According to DNA research, the genetic population of Armenians was formed in the lands of Armenian Highlands between 6000-4000 years BC (6000-8000 years ago). Thus, Armenians are the natives (originals) of the Armenian Plateau which occupies about 35% of modern Turkey's territory, 38% of modern Azerbaijan's territory, 4% of Iranian territory, 15% of Georgian territory and all of modern Armenia's territory. Present Armenia occupies only 7% of the genetic homeland of the Armenian population.
Armenian DNA has been well studied in the world's largest laboratories and according to that the results are not doubtful.
2 facts :
There are more than 7300 languages in the world that are part of 142 language families and groups. And only 20 languages (0.3% of the World's languages) do not belong to any language group, isolated and one of them is Armenian.
Armenian does not belong to any of the most famous language groups in the world.
The closest relative of the Armenian language group was the Hetch language, which went extinct in Anatolia 3 thousand years ago. The grammar structure of the language is the first-Indian-European (Aryan), as it is 1/3 of the world's population, the phonetics of the language is North-Caucasus, mixed vocabulary, with many borrowing from extinct languages. Armenian language group was founded in 3200-2800 BC (4800-5200 years ago) according to philology, thus it became one of the oldest languages of the world. Modern Armenian language consists of 3 different literary forms and more than 30 distinctive dialects.
3 facts :
Armenian real name – "hai", found in Eblait texts in 2300 BC, this word was used by ancient Hittas in 1500-1200 BC and the Urart kings called it as residents on the shores of Lake Van in 800-600 BC. The word "hai" 1 BC In the millennium, all residents of the Armenian Highlands became self-declaration. This word refers to the "Haika" sect, considered as the god "Haia" in Ancient Mesopotamia and considered to be a descendant of the Armenians who established the Kingdom of Armenians in Armenian mythology on 11 August 2492 (4516 years ago).
4 facts :
Most people of the world teach these people various forms of the word "Armenians" (Armani, Virmen, Armenians, Armani, Armenians, etc.) ) This name was originally 23 BC found in the century (4300 years ago) written in Ancient Syrian texts and was distributed 2500 years ago through ancient Persians, Greeks and Romans.
5 facts :
Armenians' closest neighbors are Georgians and Kurds, while Armenians say "somehi" (Georgian) and "fle" (Kurdish)
The Georgian "som-Kheti" (Som-Khei) means Armenia is further southern than Georgia, while the Kurdish "fle" comes from the Arabic word "fellah" which means "local", "peasant" or "settled". Exactly in Egypt, Arabs say they have swayed against the native Egyptians.
6 facts :
Armenians are writing in letters written in the period of Saint Mesrop Mashtots in 405 AD and since then these letters have hardly changed for 1619 years.
7 facts :
Armenians in 95-66 BC (2090-2119 years ago) kings II. Under the leadership of Tigran, they had the largest and most powerful empire in the world at that time.
8 facts :
Today, on the eve of the Turkish occupation of the territory, 11. It is less than the number of Armenians in the century, which means the population of the world has increased 16 times at the same time. These figures clearly show the extent of the losses Armenians have experienced in the last thousand years due to Turkish occupation.
9 facts :
Armenian Apostolic Church is an independent denomination in Christianity and the oldest of these, 1. It was founded in the century and became the state religion in Armenia in 301 (1723 years ago).
Among all Armenians, Katolikos is the only surviving monarchic title of Ancient Armenia to this day.
10 facts :
Modern Turks and Azerbaijanis actually live in the historical Armenia territory and drive the indigenous Armenian population from there. Therefore, most Armenians live in many diaspora countries today and the Turks and Azerbaijanis who established their states in the lands of Ancient Armenia are rewriting the history of this region because they fear the potential return of the indigenous people to their homeland.
Aratta Armanum Hayasa Urartu Ararat Armenia Hayastan
В июле 2023 в журнале Science было опубликовано исследование П. Хеггарти с 30 соавторами из 13 стран, включая членов исследовательской группы Грея и Аткинсона, согласно которому реконструируемый праиндоевропейский язык существовал около 8120 лет назад на Армянском нагорье, откуда впоследствии носители разных его ветвей распространились по Евразии. В соответствии с выводами учёных, армянский язык, возник, около 8000 лет назад.
But where is Azerbaaaaaaijan lol
Armenians 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
First their is no Armenian race idiots
God Bless Armenian ❤❤❤🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Before indo-European invasions ,in this region lived people who were not Armenians they were called hurro-Urartian people.
Thank you this is miracle info. For armenians
Armenia❤❤❤Artsakh ,Nakhichevan,Ani🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
WHAT A FACINATING HISTORY! GOD BLESS ARMENIA WITH WISDOM, COMMON SENSE! GOD GUIDE THIS NAION THAT WENT THROUGH A LOT OF TURBULATIONS.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
