>> Where are the Jews indigenous to?

Being "indigenous" to some land is a function of time. I think if you go back far enough in history, then the human species is only indigenous to some small portion of Africa. Everyone else just migrated from there. In my way of thinking, once a people have lived in a particular land for a few hundred years, then they are inidgenous to that land.

So the answer is simple. Jews (collectively) aren't indigenous to any country any more than say communists or libertarians are indigenous to some specific land. Israelis are primarily European and not indigenous to ME. This is clear to anyone with eyes.

But if you wish to take a middle ground, then the likely answer is that Jews are indigenous to the Western region of Caspian Sea. You may wish to follow reading on the genetic link between Khazar Jews and the modern day Jews.


Khazaria also known as Khazar khaganate or Khazar khanate was the country of the Khazars, neighboring the Byzantine Empire in the southwest, Kievan Rus' in the northwest, Volga Bulgaria in the north, and Azerbaijan in the southeast. This Turkic people adopted Judaism in the 8th or 9th century, becoming the only Jewish state ever without Abrahamic ascendence.

As an independent state, Khazaria existed between about 652 and 1016. Its supreme ruler was known by the title khagan. Its last khagan was named George Tsul. Much of Khazaria was covered by steppe land. Khazaria bordered the Caspian Sea and Black Sea. The Volga River (known as Itil or Atil) passed through eastern Khazaria.
