I read this article :

it states that because Etruscan **real** remnants cannot be used, they used genes from nowadays inhabitants of Murlo instead,

assuming that Murlo's inhabitants might share as **much** as possible with **true** Etruscans.

Quite obviously this assumption is wrong.

The map resulting from their work looks like a map of Greek-speaking Jews in the Roman Empire circa the year 300 AD.

It has nothing to do with Etruscans.

===================

****GK:
where is your evidence that there were no
Etruscan-speakers in these areas 2,000+ years ago?

I think Etruscans are inhabitants of Etruria

Why should I have to prove they were **NOT** inhabitants of somewhere **Else** ?

Your question does not make sense at all, from the start.

Do I have to prove Gaulish people NEVER inhabited Patagonia ?

If you have nothing serious to prove your point,

just acknowledge you are wrong and that's it.

Your failure to provide scientific solid documentation just means your theory bubbles down to nothing at all.

The burden of proving Etruscans might come from somewhere else lies on those who think they might.

I have nothing to prove in the first place.

They were there. Full stop.

Needs nothing else but be stated.
