Sukhum, Republic of Abkhazia
"Гәыкала." Said Dzhonua
Our guest at "Гәыкала" is Said Dzhonua, co-organizer of genetic research and participant of the AA DNA project. This independent research project is dedicated to studying the genetic history of the Abkhaz-Adyg peoples using DNA testing.
We will talk about how modern technology allows us to look back a hundred years and discover a common root among Abkhazian, Abaza, Adyg, and Kabardian surnames. We'll also discuss what science says about family legends: where legends are confirmed, and where history turns out to be quite different.
