Uchee descendants, who include many Creeks, who think of themselves only as being Creeks, are finding a strange mixture of Sami, Finnish, Karelian and Basque DNA markers in their genetic profile. This same combination of Pre-Indo-European, Western Asian DNA was found in the Windover Pond, Florida bog bodies and later, in human remains found in the Florida Panhandle. They dated from 6000 to 5000 BC.
As typical, the North American archaeologists failed to broaden their study to events across the Atlantic and see the connection. You see . . . I remember from my time, working in southern Sweden that the earliest people of southern Sweden were Eurasian ancestors of the Sami and that they also placed the bodies of their love ones at the bottoms of shallow ponds. The bodies were wrapped in nets and staked to the bottom, like those at Windover Pond!

On the left is a forensic re-creation of a woman buried at Windover Pond. On the right, is a Northern Sami flicka near Kiruna, Lapland – Sweden. Southern Sami are partially Scandinavian and so have lighter complexions, plus can be blue-eyed blondes.
There is something else that makes the Windover Pond burials highly significant. Between 6,000 BC and 5,000 BC a natural catastrophe caused a depopulation of a vast section of southern Scandinavia. Thus, we have many thousands of people being forced out of northwestern Europe at the same time that people with the same DNA appears on the South Atlantic Coast. That cannot be an accident. The video below will tell viewers about the lifestyle these people had before being forced on a diaspora by Mother Nature.
The Sami have intrigued me throughout my entire adult life. I couldn’t understand why both Scandinavians and Sami thought I was a northern Sami. It was not until 2014 that I learned that I was part Sami and Finnish. A 2005 DNA test merely labeled the majority of my genes, Nordic. The rest were labeled southern Mesoamerican. As a whole, I was labeled a Mexican Mestizo in 2005! LOL

What is really fascinating is that the Dyar Family of Union County and White County, Georgia strongly resemble the aboriginal people of the Florida and the Sami flicka in the photo above. They have a lot of Uchee ancestry and thus are descended from the aboriginal people of the Southeast. My neighbor down the road in the Nacoochee Valley, Curtis Dyar, would have passed for full-blooded Sea Sami, when he still had black hair. LOL
Fascinating post Richard. It’s amazing what a DNA can reveal.

Hi Richard, catching up on your post. Here is Curtis Dyer’s immediate relative. Quote from BlueRidgeHighlander site. “local Union County Georgia young man named Micajah Clark Dyer (1822-1891) lived at the foot of Rattlesnake and Cedar Mountains in the Choestoe District of Union County”. Mica’s grave is at Old Choestoe cemetery next to Dyer Indian grave site. I have documented photos of the grave site. Also very close by (500 yards?) Are several UNC archeological sites place on file with Ga State. Many recovered artifacts are safely in private collection of a college. They are significant artifacts. Also nearby is an obvious land feature/ mound pyramid aka Holt Rd mound. Mica is a noted genius and credited with providing the wright brothers the idea of mechanized flight. Look him up. Better yet take a visit to the Union County Historical society old Union County Court house. There you can take in a picture portrait of Mica. You think Curtis resembles the aboriginal people of the Florida and the Sami? Wait till you see Mica!
This Dyer lineage and evidence has become a focus of my investigations in our small group. Many Dyers currently populate the county and many have descendants that own large acreage of land in Union county. Discussions with several residents has led me to believe that none of these folks may understand their true ancestral roots. Most if not all think they all started somewhere 1830 ATot. (After Trail of Tears) That is how strong the cloche of pop anthropology has buried the truth. I know you are involved deeply with Nacoochee Valley work. But when you get some time I would like to discuss how I might go about presenting some of this information on your blog. Just a thought.

All the older generations of Dyers have very strong Uchee features. Where did the founding Dyer live before he came to Choestoe? It is an ancient Uchee town that shows up on the earliest maps of that region, which mention specific towns.
