🔴 **Genetic evidence points to distinct paternal settlers of the Faroe Islands and Iceland**

_“If Iceland and the Faroe Islands are indeed genetically divergent, as found in the present study, two scenarios may explain their differentiation and Iceland’s relative isolation on the networks: (1) the populations were settled by different regional groups; or, (2) another historically contingent process of evolution between the two groups has resulted in the divergence.”_
