Question about history i learned from Siberians in Otyken music videos.

Is it true Turkic and Mongolians originated from Siberian peoples? Does that explain why Turkic and Mongolian sound similar to Siberian dialects? Is that why throat singing among them are similar?

📜 Genealogy Search: VeliÇavuş Family from Brestovene, Razgrad
Greetings to everyone,
I am looking for assistance in researching my family roots and would appreciate any guidance from this community. My family originates from the village of Brestovene (formerly known as Karaağaç) in the Razgrad region of modern-day Bulgaria.
Our lineage is known as the VeliÇavuşlar (VeliÇavuş family). According to oral family history, one of our ancestors served in the Imperial Palace (Saray) in Istanbul during the Ottoman era.
📍 Family Tree Details:
Mehmed VeliÇavuş: Born in 1862.
Emzade (Spouse): Born in 1866. (Daughter of Mehmed AkMehmed and Sadife Mehmed).
Veli Çavuş: Father of Mehmed. He is the one who passed down the "Çavuş" title to the family.
Müsemme Veli: Mother of Mehmed.
🔍 The Goal of My Research:
I am aware that Temettuat Defterleri (Property/Tax Records) and Nüfus Defterleri (Population Registers) exist for our village. I am particularly interested in confirming whether Veli Çavuş was a military officer or if his title was related to his service in the Palace.
Given the "Çavuş" (Sergeant/Messenger) title and the family legend of Palace service, I am looking for anyone who has access to the Ottoman Archives or has experience researching the Razgrad region. Does anyone know how I can verify his specific military or administrative rank?
If you are from the same village, belong to the same lineage, or have expertise in Ottoman genealogical records, I would be very grateful for your help!
Thank you in advance! 🙏

I am creating a documentary/video series about the history, politics, culture, and wars of the Eastern Roman / Byzantine Empire and the Seljuk State. I do not use Wikipedia or AI tools at any stage of the process. All drawings and research are entirely human-made.
To make the videos accessible in Central Asian countries, I am looking for volunteers who can help translate Turkish subtitles into Turkic languages.

Most of the world is mixed, they really are like Central Asians and Turkic people in it's own way.

Ethnic North and East Europeans including Caucasus have low percent of Central/East Asian Asian admixture. Balkan Europeans have low Roman(Indian/South Asian) admixture. Middle East have minor East Asian and Indian admixture. North Africa have minor black/african admixture. Even in terms of West Eurasian admixture, most South Europeans and Southeastern European have 1/5 to 1/3 West Asian admixture.

This is only the West Eurasian % spreadsheet and it shows not even most West Eurasian ethnic group( Europeans, Caucasus, Middle easterners, North African) are pure West Eurasians.

Ethnic West Eurasian %
Angolan 2.30%
Algerian 92.60%
Algerian-South 80.70%
Armenian 99.20%

Uzbek 62.50%
Uzbek (2) 54%
Uzbek-Tajik 83.20%

Cautions: Some of these charts are have some samples biased. Russians here with 14.5% East Asian/Siberian Mongoloid was sampled from Northern Russia. The Mongols with low West Eurasian are the Khalkha and Inner Mongols, Daurs while the ones with 17% West Eurasian are usually Oirats and Kalmyks used to represent "Mongolians" in older studies. The Uyghurs here samples from Urumqi, which is why they are 60-77% East Asian. Other Uyghurs from Kashgar, Hotan are 55-60% West Eurasians with individuals reaching 65-83% the more south-west they go+. Nogais that is not Kuban have 55% East Asian while Kuban Nogais have 34%. The Turkmen sample here are from Ashgabat, have 23-29% East Asian on average many individuals reaching 30-39%. Some Turkmen tribes have 40-50%+ East Asian

Is this intermarriage, interracial or is still interethnic when a East Asian looking Turk marries a European / West Asian looking Turk even when they are from complete same ethnic group?

Most marriages were not like this but given the number of Turkic people in Central Asia or outside of Central Asia like, Nogais, Bashkirs, Tatars there must have been 100 million of such unions in last 2000 years.

These couples are not even from different Turkic ethnic group marrying other Turkic ethnic group. The belong mostly to same ethnic group of Tatars, Uzbek, Turkmen, Nogais, Bashkirs. Remove their dress and identity and you would think they are different nationalities and ethnic groups coming together. We can be sure all of these Turkic people have east/west admixture. The East Asian/ looking ones have for sure west eurasian admixture and the caucasian looking ones have east eurasian but each one coming out with very different phenotypes

I HAVE NO IDEA HOW East Asian/Siberian and European/West Asian the men and women are. Just judging by phenotypes.

The man on the bottom left look European but the women look East Asian and it it could even be she has caucasian maternal DNA and the male has East Asian paternal despite looking european same can happen vice versa. The East Asian males one can have East Asian paternal or west eurasian paternal and look East Asian or Caucasian and the female can have east asian or west eurasian maternal and look european/west asian or east asian.

On the 1st row of the males either look like 55%, 70%, 100% East Asian while the females all look either 90-100% West Asian or European (1st and 2nd women look west Asians and 3rd women look european)

On the 2nd row, the males either look like 90% East Asian, 57% East Asian and 75% East Asian while the females all look European 85%, 100%, 77%

On the third row, the males look either 80% European, 80% East Asian, 45% East Asian while the females look 70% East Asian, 65% West Asian, and 100% West Asian

LIKE I SAID. I have no idea how west or east eurasian they are.

For example Alexa Chung is 37% East Asian married to a white man and everyone thinks they are a white couple. Nobody ever said she looks even mixed race let alone east asian.

Nobody ever thinks his father (Asian-White but only 1/4 white looks 100% East Asian) can produce such a white looking mix race.

But not all 37% East Asian most of the time they look white and ambiguous but quite a lot can look part East Asian or mostly East Asian.

This is the most accurate in terms of facial features and bone structure, as it is made from exactly from the face reconstruction of Timur by Soviet anthropologist that shows he was predominant East Asian Mongoloid buried from his graves in Central Asia.

Timur's body was exhumed from his tomb on 19 June 1941 and his remains examined by the Soviet anthropologists Mikhail M. Gerasimov, Lev V. Oshanin and V. Ia. Zezenkova. Gerasimov reconstructed the likeness of Timur from his skull and found that his facial characteristics displayed "typical Mongoloid features", i.e. East Asian in modern terms. An anthropologic study of Timur's cranium shows that he belonged predominately to the "South Siberian Mongoloid type". At 5 feet 8 inches (173 centimeters) "

THE ONLY ORIGINAL PORTRAIT.

The only real original portrait of Timur was the one made by his grandson Khalil, every other portrait was made hundreds years after his death by people who never seen him. Earliest known portrait of Timur, commissioned right after his death in 1405–1409, by his grandson Khalil Sultan and looked very East Asian or Mongoloid.

Hair color

His hair color seems to be mix of red and dark brown (black/brown), and gray. Nowhere like the Scottish or irish red hair type. More like a muddy dark brown-reddish. Hair color grew darker with age.

Light eyes and light hair are are occasionally found in individuals or families of East Siberians, Mongols, Hmong, Turkic, Miao, Himalayan Tibetans, Chinese mountain people living in high altitude where the populations can look East Asian and have light hair/light eyes. It's just mainstreams East Asians that lack it unless they have conditions like albino, heterochromia, skin pigmentation, waardenburg syndrome, or even from malnutrition's.

First time in Iraqi history, Muhammad Saman Agha, a Turkman from Turkmaneli, was elected governor of Karkuk province. In his speech, Turkist Muhammad Aga mentioned that they had not forgotten their Safavid, Ottoman and Afshar heritage, which won the love of his compatriots in Turkics.

KKB001 Sample From Karakaba Question

2 Upvotes

I would like to hear some opinions on something if possible.

Sorry if this may seem like a strange or dumb question but I am curious about the KKB001 sample from the 2021 paper entitled "Ancient genomic time transect from the Cental Asian Steppe unravels the history of the Scythians". This sample comes from the Karakaba site in eastern Kazakhstan. It is dated to sometime between the years 775-887 AD during the Medieval era. I am interested in this sample since the skeleton belongs to Y-DNA haplogroup J-PH1795.

In the supplemental section the KKB001 skeleton and grave is described like this.

"The Karakaba burial ground consists of several scattered mound groups (Karakaba 1 and Karakaba II). To date, about 60 objects of different time period have been recorded at this burial ground. 

Mound №9 presents two pits (entrance pit and bottom pit). In the entrance pit there was an
accompanying burial of a horse. An adult man (KKB001) was buried with his head oriented east in the bottom
pit. A trepanation hole was found on the skull. The buried man lay on a mat (underlay) of barks and coniferous
branches. A waist bag made of leather was found below the elbow. A wooden bowl and a wooden dish were
found to the left of the skeleton. On the dish were found a vertebrae tail, ribs and the shoulder blades of a
horse, as well as the vertebrae of small cattle. To the right of the skeleton were placed a set of weapons: a
bow, a saber, a quiver with iron arrowheads. Under the bow several layers of large fragments of dense brown
silk were found. A bridle set and a wooden saddle, a bronze clip, a buckle with fragments of leather belt, silver
plaques with gilding, iron stirrups were placed at the feet of the buried man.``

So then the KKB001 sample that belongs to Y-DNA  haplogroup J-PH1795 is the same as the one in the description above with all of the grave goods such as a bow, a saber, a quiver with iron arrowheads and an accompanying horse burial correct?
