Did Cherokee Religion Originate Middle East
This one if while not directly related to Aztec treasure, does relate to discussions we have had.
Don Jose da la Mancha says Aztecs are descended from the Jewish people. This is most likely related to the articles of faith of the LDS. And, DNA y-marker testing shows no Jewish ancestry of the Aztec people.
However, the link posted does say the Creek and Cherokee people in SE USA do show Jewish ancestry. As well as a lot of other European ancestry. However, it is also believed the Jewish ancestry came not thousands of years ago, but around 400 years ago.
Still, it is interesting as it shows how DNA ancestry may not always be intuitive.
On that board a woman writes that she does not have Spanish or Portuguese ancestry, but does have Irish. Actually, the Irish were of Spanish and Portuguese ancestry, 5 to 10,000 years ago. My y-markers are very similar to my Mexican neighbors, because a majority of Mexican male ancestry is Spanish and Portuguese.
