Scota: Mother of the Scottish People | Ancient History Encyclopedia

History is a topic that almost anybody can write about, if they know what they're talking about, and make it extremely interesting and informative for other people (like me) who have no knowledge of the facts whatsoever.



One of the blogs I like or follow is The Freelance History Writer, published by history lover, Ms. Susan Abernethy.  She started out writing about women's history and then decided to diversify.

Ms. Abernathy's love for this subject was recognized and appreciated by a reputable non-profit organization, and she was asked to write a guest post for them. She holds the honor of being the first guest blogger for Ancient History Encyclopedia. The title of her guest post is Scota: Mother of the Scottish People.  At her own blog this post was tagged “DNA analysis”. 

  • Do you know who discovered that DNA could be categorized into 7 basic groups?  
  • What do you know about "Lia Fail"?  


This historical adventure really took me places.
Thanks Ms. Abernathy!  :)
