”Eye color was most likely to be brown (P = 0.962), hair color was dark (P = 0.810) or brown (P = 0.555), and skin tone was intermediate (0.635), that is, neither light nor dark.”
”principal component analysis (PCA) was used to assess the genetic affinities of the genome of Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich to other known ancient and modern populations. [...] The genome of Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich [...] holds an intermediate position between the European and Central Asian clusters. [...] Hungary_Late Avar (I16741), an individual of the late Avar period with a mixed genomic profile consisting of ~20% of the Eastern Steppe component and ~80% of the component most pronounced in the previous local inhabitants of the Carpathian Basin clustered next to Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich[.]”
”[B]ased on PCA data, Admixture analysis, and information on mitochondrial DNA, it can be argued that Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich had a significant eastern component in his genome.”
”To model the genome from the components of ancestral populations, we used the qpWave and qpAdmix programs with the “allsnps: YES” parameter ...”
”[The] modeling of the genome of Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich indicates the contribution of three ancestral sources to its origin: (1) the early medieval population of the east of Scandinavia from the island of Oland, (2) the steppe nomadic peoples of the Eurasian steppes of the Iron Age or the early medieval population of central Europe (steppe nomads from the territory of Hungary), and (3) the East Eurasian component. Alternative models, replacing the population of “Vikings” with the Medieval Russian Slavic populations (Shekshovo9 and Sungir6) also provide a fit.”
”An analysis of the genealogical tree of the Rurikids showed that the modern individuals of this family, who have a Y chromosome clustered with Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich’s Y chromosome, belong to three different branches – the Olgoviches, Mstislaviches, and Yuryeviches. Thus, the N1a haplogroup of the Y chromosome characterizes all three branches of the tree, suggesting that their first common ancestor, Prince Yaroslav the Wise, was a carrier of N1a haplogroup also.”
”The mitochondrial haplogroup of Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich was determined as F1b1, which may point to the contribution of eastern populations to his genome. [...] Although the main genetic makeup of Dmitry Aleksandrovich can be attributed to the Scandinavians/Slavic/European populations our results provide clear evidence of the input of the Eastern genetic component. This is in line with historical data: marriages of Russian princes with the daughters of the Polovtsian khans from the end of the XI century were a common practice that cemented allied relations and political interaction. Dmitry’s mother, the wife of Alexander Nevsky, Alexandra Bryachislavna, came from the Polotsk Izyaslaviches family.”
