I made a post a few days ago but now illustrative dna clears things up.

Born and raised in the UK with Gambian parents (both of Mandinka and Fulani heritage, maternal grandmother is fulani from Guinea).

From the data, I clearly have my deepest roots in West Africa with the Senegambian people, which I of course would identify (especially mandinka).

It is cool to see the Fulani-North African link here too, though it does seem like I had an excess addition of North African around the 18th century.

The bits of likely southern European make sense because of the North African, but I'm pretty suprised by the Papauan and Siberian 😂. Wonder how accurate that is. Below is the og post.

My parents are both from the Gambia of Mandinka and Fulani heritage. My maternal Grandmother is Fulani from Guinea. Curious as to why I don't have much of a breakdown on my North African heritage?
