Albert,

I have to admit that those triangle graphs: khazaria.com confused the hell out of me. Ok (continuing a little bit later), I think I got the concept, but I think it is far fetched to draw any conclusion on these charts - in favor that Ashkenazi are related to biblical Jews, related to Turks, or independent of both.

Your point about Russian being very distant could be because Russians have a Scandinavian influence, so if you look at it from this progression:
Scandinavian - Russian - Generic Slavic vs. Turkic Could that explain it?

Another thing to consider is the map was significantly different in 8th to 10th century from what it is now. The Eastern Slavs (lets forget western Slavs) lived mainly in a corridor between Kiev, Moscow and Novgorod, and to the south east the tribes where not Slavic, but Turkic. Eventually, Slavs conquered all of these tribes, and dominated the region, but that was after the fact.

Joe
