Oct 10, 2017 at 11:14 comment added MCW Mod I've reversed my downvote on that specific question.
Oct 10, 2017 at 1:06 comment added user26763 So as I had stated earlier, I too, agree with the notion that asking questions or writing posts on Genetics and History without any expertise or even an intermediate knowledge of Genetics is not recommendable. But, a discussion on ethnicity, culture and history is, i believe, a valid approach.
Oct 10, 2017 at 1:03 comment added user26763 With regard to my question about "the likely ethnic origins of the Minoans", my initial and primary interest was to examine the ethnic roots of this semi-mysterious civilization. It is, for example, not implausible to suggest that the Minoans may have been of either distant Hellenic or Egyptian ethnic extraction; not necessarily based on their racial/ anthropological composition, but on certain cultural and linguistic clues that would contribute to a better understanding their ethnic origins.
Oct 10, 2017 at 0:58 comment added user26763 Well, I agree with you with regard to the discussion of race, genetics and history. I am not a Geneticist and claim no expertise in Genetic Science. However, ethnicity, is a different topic. Ethnicity, by the very nature of the word means, "nation" or "nationality". When discussing the ethnic origins or ethnic composition of any given civilization or society, topics, such as language, cultural customs, religious practices, as well as a culture's historical self-identification, are valid topics when evaluating the history of a particular group.
