An academic work about the Cantabrian Race - not spanish/latin -The ethnic cleansing of the Cantabrian People is a sad and unknown reality- We denounce the genocide against the ancient Cantabrian Nation

The Cantabrian Nation and the Cantabrian Race are part of the Human galaxy of this world, made of dozens of Native Nations and Races. With different colours, customs, traditions, and some similar, we all deserve respect. Give and receive, a important thing.
Apart of the original and real Native Nations, in all continents there a quite new ones (maybe better to talk about regions or countries that  conform States or are the pillars of States -like for example in Spanish States the basques and the catalans), mixed people and so.

To be really clear: Everything and everyone that sticks and maintain some basic Natural, Human and Respectful Values and Conducts (not with imperialists, imposers and expansionist desires, liars and greedy usually by the way) deserves respect. And the more you respect the more you will be respect.

Anyway, here is a study about the Cantabrian Race. This does not mean that without it, we would not be able to defend the Cantabrian race and Nation. The clear and empirical study, that anyone willing to be able to do can do, more or less. You don't have to have degrees, official diplomas studies, upper or medium classes for many thing, and to do some studies, work, analysis neither. Many official studies (present and past), and works of scientist, academics and so are basically and fundamentally rigged because, not only economic corruption, but ideological reason.

(Anyway a lot had change, and still changing, and maybe i the nearer future they will say that the Cantabrian Race and Nation is a Myth and anyone that says otherwise a crazy theorists)

Summary Mitochondrial DNA sequences and Y chromosome haplotypes were characterized in Pasiegos, a human isolate from Cantabria, and compared with those of other Cantabrian and neighbouring Northern Spain populations. Cantabria appears to be a genetically heterogeneous community. Whereas Lebaniegos do not differ from their eastern Basque and western Asturian and Galician neighbours, Pasiegos and other non‐Lebaniego Cantabrians show significant differences with all of them. Pasiegos are peculiar for their high frequencies of Y chromosomal markers (E‐M81) with North African assignation, and Y chromosomal (R‐SRY2627) and mtDNA (V, I, U5) markers related to northern European populations. This dual geographic contribution is more in agreement with the complex demographic history of this isolate, as opposed to recent drift effects. The high incidence in Cantabrians with pre‐V and V mtDNA haplotypes, considered as a signal of Postglacial recolonization in Europe from south‐western refugees, points to such refugees as a better candidate population than Basques for this expansion. However, this does not discount a conjoint recolonization.Introduction Although no separate ethnic group is considered to exist in the north of Spain, the idea of an archaic lifestyle in the North was coined in the past and to a certain degree is still maintained. From a geographical viewpoint, what the people living in these areas have in common is a landscape of valleys, separated from each other by forests and mountains, which partly explains some of the characteristics classically attributed to them. Cantabria is one of these northern mountainous regions (geographically, the north of Spain is also known as the Cantabrian Cornice). It has great anthropological interest because there are vestiges of continuous human occupation of this area since Palaeolithic times (Fernández‐Acebo, 1996). Probably the best worldwide renowed artistic manifestations of that period are the Aurignacian paintings of the Altamira and Puente Viesgo caves (Bischoff et al. 1992). Due to the abrupt orography of the region and the ferocity of the tribal inhabitants, Cantabria was rather impermeable to the numerous waves of invaders that successively colonised the Iberian peninsula until recent historic times (González‐Echegaray, 1993). Although the present community have not conserved an ancient language, as have their eastern neighbours the Basques, there are interesting human isolates in Cantabria, the Pasiego being the most characteristic one (Tax‐Freeman, 1979). They are shepherds from Montes de Pas that seasonally move along the mountains carrying their livestock to the best pastures. The region's actual isolation is confirmed by a high degree of endogamy and consanguinity (Tax‐Freeman, 1979; Pérez‐Flores, 1998; Sánchez‐Velasco et al. 1999), and a relatively high incidence of some diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, and virtual absence of others such as insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus. Furthermore, genetic studies using GM and KM immunoglobulin markers demonstrated a high degree of genetic differentiation of Pasiegos, that when included with other populations, reveals a considerable range of genetic variation within the Iberian peninsula, higher than that often polarised around the Basque versus non‐Basque variation (Esteban et al. 1998). Concerning the origin of the Pasiegos at least three theories can be considered: i) Pasiegos are descendants of the primitive inhabitants of Cantabria. This hypothesis tacitly implies that human settlements in Montes de Pas have been quite constant since prehistoric times with no obvious population hiatus (Fernández‐Acebo, 1996), and that the historically documented award of pastures to the Oña monastery in the eleventh century (Fernández‐Acebo, 1996; González‐Echegaray, 1993) did not substantially affect the demographic evolution of the indigenous settlers. ii) They are Goths that retreated into these valleys after the Moslem invasion. Congruent with this second hypothesis is a study on MHC class II polymorphisms that closely relate Pasiegos to Danes, Poles and Germans rather than to non‐Pasiego Cantabrians (Sánchez‐Velasco et al. 1999, 2003). iii) Pasiegos are descendants of Jews and Moors that took refuge in the area after their expulsion from Christian communities. In favour of this hypothesis is the high frequency found in a small Pasiego sample of a Y‐chromosome haplogroup with a likely North African Berber origin (Scozzari et al. 2001). In this study we use maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and paternally inherited Y‐chromosome polymorphisms to provide new information on the genetic structure of the Pasiego isolate, and to relate them to surrounding Iberian populations as well as other European and North African populations that share haplotypes with a well established geographic origin.Materials and MethodsSamples A total of 242 unrelated individuals from the Cantabrian region were analysed in this study. All potential donors gave informed consent, but for those from isolated areas only those with female and male ancestors born in the same place for at least two generations were taken into account. The geographic origins of the samples (Fig. 1) were as follows: 82 Pasiegos from any of the Three Pasiego Villas at the southern border of the current province of Cantabria, 72 Lebaniegos (inhabitants from Potes and surround, a small western Cantabrian locality near to Asturias), and a pool of 88 non‐Pasiego and non‐Lebaniego Cantabrians from different localities. In addition, published data from nearby populations were incorporated in comparative analyses: 45 Spanish Basques (Underhill et al. 2000) 90 Asturians and 19 additional Pasiegos (Scozzari et al. 2001) were used for Y‐chromosome comparisons, and 135 Galicians and 167 Basques, as detailed elsewhere (Larruga et al. 2001), were used in the mtDNA analysis.Figure 1Open in figure viewerPowerPoint Sketch maps of the Iberian Peninsula (left) and the present provincial boundaries in the Cantabrian Cornice (right) with approximate geographic location of the populations sampled. DNA was extracted from 5µl of blood using an alkaline protocol (Rudbeck & Dissing, 1998).Binary Y‐Chromosome Polymorphisms Y chromosomes were typed using 25 biallelic polymorphisms: A‐M13C, DE‐YAP(Alu+), E‐M2G, E‐M78T, E‐M81T, E‐M123A, E‐M34T, E‐P2T, F‐M89T, G‐M201T, H‐M52C, I‐M170C, I‐M26A, J‐12f2 (8kb), J‐M172G, J‐M67C, J‐M12T, K‐M9G, K‐M70C, N‐TatC, P‐92R7T, R‐M173C, R‐M153A, R‐SRY2627T and R‐SRY10831bA.
