The Middle Farmers migrated into Europe 8000 years ago:
    5000 year old Otzi the Iceman was a closely related to the Middle Eastern Farmers as are modern Sardinians The last people to migrate Europe was the Indo-Europeans who originated from the Yamnaya Culture in Eastern Europe. Therefore Europeans are mixed and all are descendants from Royalty.
