would propose that pretty well all Caucasians in USA, Canada, Australia and
South America are relatively recent immigrants (in the last couple of
hundred years, half the age of my old house).If you go back 2000 years
pretty well all Europeans are descended from slaves, either Roman or Viking,
for example, and things get much more complicated.

No, most of us are not Immigrants. By that logic, no one is native to
anywhere. There has been so much migration of human populations throughout
history that virtually every ethnic group on Earth today lives somewhere
they didn?t just 2000 years ago. Even the people who were here in the
Americas when Europeans first arrived were not native to the Americas.
They came from Siberia. The tribal people who still live in eastern
Siberia, like the Evenk and the Chukchi, are racially similar to Native
Americans, because they?re from the same ancestry.
