[edit] Pharoah Hounds and ibizan hounds

Any info on these two?

Both Pharoah Hounds and Ibizian Hounds were tested and shown to be essentially modern. This is not surprising since they are both "reconstructions", derived from intercrosses of the very few, if any, surviving members of the original breeds with a hefty dose of Greyhound and other modern breeds.
