遗传学研究发现希腊的深层马尼奥特人是高度孤立的, A genetic study finds Greece's Deep Maniots are highly isolated, with most men tracing ancestry to one 7th-century male.

2026年2月4日公布的新基因研究显示,希腊南部的深谷是欧洲最遗传上最孤立的人口之一,父系家族追溯到青铜时代、铁时代和罗马时代。 A new genetic study released on February 4, 2026, reveals that the Deep Maniots of southern Greece are one of Europe’s most genetically isolated populations, with paternal lineages tracing back to Bronze Age, Iron Age, and Roman-era groups. 大部分男性都来自CE七世纪的单一男性祖先,这很可能是由于人口瓶颈造成的,而母系则表现出更多的多样性,表明女性基因流动有限。 Most men descend from a single male ancestor from the 7th century CE, likely due to a population bottleneck, while maternal lines show more diversity, suggesting limited female gene flow. 这些结果基于Y-染色体和线粒体DNA分析,支持口述历史,并将社区与巨石结构的古代建筑者联系起来。 The findings, based on Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA analysis, support oral histories and link the community to ancient builders of megalithic structures. 该地区崎岖不平的地形和历史隔离有助于将这一独特的遗传和文化遗产保存了1 400多年。 The region’s rugged terrain and historical seclusion helped preserve this unique genetic and cultural heritage for over 1,400 years.
