🇧🇦⚜ Percentage of “Old Balkan” vs. “Slavic” Ancestry among Bosniaks

This map shows the estimated balance between pre-Slavic (“Illyro-Roman”, Balkan Iron Age & Anatolian-related) ancestry and Medieval Slavic ancestry across different Bosniak regions.

Key takeaways:
Slavic ancestry dominates in most regions, especially Northeast Bosnia (63.6%) and Central-East Bosnia (65.6%).

Old Balkan ancestry is strongest in Sandžak–Zeta (61.6%) and remains significant in Herzegovina (45%) and Eastern Bosnia (40.5%).

Bosanska Krajina shows a near balance, with 59% Slavic and 41% Old Balkan ancestry.

Estimates are averages from multiple genetic models using Balkan Iron Age, Roman-era Anatolian-related, and Medieval Slavic reference samples.

Dervish Pasha Dedaga Čengić (1823 - 1874)

-was born in Lipnik, the son of Smail-aga Čengić an Ottoman military commander. After the treacherous murder of his father, he succeeded him at just 18 years of age. He led military campaigns against the Drobnjaks and Piva tribes to avenge his father, defeated the Montenegrins at the Battle of Tušine, and emerged victorious in combat against Drago Kovačević, regarded as the greatest Montenegrin hero. From 1855, he served as serhad commander (border troops commander) with the rank of nuvalay (colonel), a position he held for 20 years. In 1869, for his military merits, he was granted the noscript of Pasha (equivalent to today’s general). He was the most beloved member of the Čengić family among the people of Gacko. He lived in Sarajevo, where he built a villa in an area that is still known today as Čengić Vila.

🇧🇦🇸🇮 "What you are looking at is a mosque in Log pod Mangartom in Slovenia, built in 1916. It was constructed by Bosniaks from the 6th Bosnian-Herzegovinian Rifle Battalion, who fought against Italy on the Soča Front.

They were such skilled and brave warriors that the inhabitants of Kranjska Gora long frightened the Italians by claiming that Bosniak troops were still stationed at the Vršič mountain pass.

The Italians never captured this pass nor advanced as far as Ljubljana, but after the First World War, out of revenge, they demolished this mosque down to its foundations and placed crosses on the graves of 102 Bosniak soldiers. Only in 2007 were the original nišans (Muslim tombstones) returned to the cemetery."
