What science tells us about Irish DNA keeps getting updated. Some years back, experts told us that the Irish ended up culturally Celtic but had little to no Celtic DNA. So where did the Irish come from?
One answer is that they came from almost everywhere. The original settlers had dark skin. Four or five big waves of newcomers came after them. The lasting DNA core of the modern Irish came from a migration from the steppes of Ukraine, scientists say.
