138 DNA and the Scottish Clans Pt 2 w/ Ethan Hunt
In this episode, Ethan gets more specific with how the study of DNA helps us understand the history of specific clans, their origins (both in support and in denial of some legends), and their relationships to each other. Among the clans we discussed were Clan Sorley (MacDonalds, MacRorys, and MacDougals), Sìol Ailpein (Grants, MacGregors, MacKinnons, MacAulays, Madfies, Macnabs, MacQuarries), MacNeils, Robertsons, Dunbars, Bruces, Stewarts, MacBeans, MacPhersons, Buchanans, and MacLarens. I really hope you all love this as much as I did. Check out the links below for more information. If you find this to be valuable, you can buy me a drink or a book at www.scottish-clans.com/team.
