About us

The N1 Haplogroup Y-Chromosome is present is less than 1% of males from the Iberian world (Hispanic and Lusophone countries) and is generally the Finno-Ugric subclad from the Baltic Region of Northern Europe. It is believe that this Y-Chromosome came to the Iberian peninsula by way of Varagian Viking raiders and merchant traders during historical times rather than pre-historic times. It is known that formal diplomatic relations where established between the Emirate of Cordova and the Varagian Viking King following the 844 CE Battle of Seville, which the Emirate of Cordova decisively won after the Iberian Peninsula, including regions of now located in modern Portugal and Spain, suffered a series of costly raids and battles won by the Varagian Vikings along the coast of the Iberian Peninsula.
