Posachedwapa, DNA yakale yapezedwa kuchokera ku mabwinja a anthu omwe amapezeka m'manda ku England. Kupyolera mu kafukufuku ndi kusanthula zochotsera izi, akatswiri ofukula zinthu zakale ndi asayansi apanga kumvetsetsa kuti malowa amapereka chidziwitso pa chiyambi cha anthu oyambirira kudzitcha Chingerezi.

Poyambirira, zinkaganiziridwa kuti makolo a anthu a ku England ankakhala m'midzi "yokha, yaing'ono". Komabe, kufufuza kwaposachedwapa kumasonyeza kuti kusamuka kwakukulu kuchokera kumpoto kwa Netherlands, Germany, ndi kum’mwera kwa Scandinavia m’zaka 400 zapitazi kukuchititsa chibadwa cha ambiri a ku England lerolino.

Kafukufuku adatulutsa zotsatira zake zomwe zidawonetsa kuti DNA ya 450 akale kumpoto chakumadzulo kwa Europe idaphunziridwa. Zinawululidwa kuti panali kukula kwakukulu kwa makolo a kumpoto kwa Ulaya kumayambiriro kwa zaka za m'ma Middle Ages ku England, komwe kuli kofanana ndi anthu oyambirira azaka za m'ma Middle Ages ndi amakono a Germany ndi Denmark. Izi zikutanthauza kuti panali kusamuka kwakukulu kwa anthu kudutsa Nyanja ya Kumpoto kupita ku Britain m'zaka zoyambirira zapakati.

Pulofesa Ian Barnes ananenapo za kufunika kwa kafukufukuyu, ndipo ananena kuti “palibe kafukufuku wochuluka wakale wa DNA (aDNA) wochitidwa pa nthawi ya Anglo-Saxon.” Ofufuzawo adapeza kuti chibadwa cha anthu aku Britain pakati pa 400 ndi 800CE chinali ndi 76%.

Pulofesa wina wanena kuti kafukufukuyu akudzutsa kukayikira malingaliro athu apano okhudza England wakale. Akuti zomwe zapezedwazi “zimatithandiza kufufuza mbiri ya anthu m’njira zatsopano” ndikuwonetsa kuti sikunali kusamuka kwakukulu kwa Gulu Lapamwamba.

M'mbiri yambiri ya Chingerezi, pali nkhani zingapo. Amakhulupirira kuti anachokera ku Germany, Denmark, ndi Netherlands. Nkhani imodzi yotereyi ndi ya Updown Girl, yemwe anaikidwa m'manda ku Kent kumayambiriro kwa zaka za m'ma 700. Akuti anali ndi zaka 10 kapena 11.

Pamalo amene anaikidwa m’manda panali mpeni, chisa ndi mphika. Malipoti akusonyeza kuti makolo ake anali ochokera ku West Africa. Kuti mudziwe zambiri za Anglo-Saxons, onerani kanema pansipa.
