Niall of the Nine
Hostages lived roughly between 30 and 40 generations ago. There are over a billion lines of descent to 30 generations and over a trillion lines of descent to 40 generations for each and every one of us. It is likely that everyone in Great Britain and Ireland, apart from some recent immigrants from far away, descends directly from Niall of the Nine Hostages. Because of the destuction of a lot of Irish records it is easier for most English people to prove descent from Brian Boro and Niall of the Nine Hostages than it is for most Irish.

One of the problems presented by
Professor Bradley's study of the genetic origins of the Irish Race was that it implied we were no different to the vast majority of indigenous people in England, Scotland and Wales. Dan has never directly suggested we originated in the Basque region; this suggestion

Sadly this 2010 paper has undermined the programme's main argument of a male-lineage migration from Spain to
Ireland soon after the Ice Age. The thesis has been worked on for years and by chance was published just before BOTI won its award. The bigger picture, looking at thousands of genes from all

Seems to me this programme is ambiguous on what it was trying to demonstrate. If it was about discovering where the first settlers on this island came from, then fine. But there was also a subtext about 'authentic' Irish, and a questionable link between who is authentically Irish and a biological

English became "more Irish than the Irish themselves" - rather than biologically determined. Too closely related to

The "1930s
