Original Note:
The article mentioned in the post was published in 2012 and considered an outdated "Khazar hypothesis" for the origin of Ashkenazi Jews from "Khazaria" (territory of modern Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, etc). However this study was discredited in the following publication in 2013 https://bioone.org/journals/human-biology/volume-85/issue-6/027.085.0604/No-Evidence-from-Genome-Wide-Data-of-a-Khazar-Origin/10.3378/027.085.0604.short
