Updated results! 89% Sierra Leone + Mende/Mandé Peoples 🇸🇱

Finally got my updated results back! It’s crazy seeing how my old 84% Mali score got refined into a massive 89% Sierra Leone breakout with a specific Mali-Mandé connection. Included my old results at the end for comparison. Drop your thoughts!

New results vs Old ones.
Sad they’ve opted to combine em all into to Burundi/Rwanda category was hoping for a better break down of the former Nilo/Cushitic groups

Updated Liberian results

I’m Americo Liberian and Mandingo. My biggest gripe is them erasing the southeast Asian component that’s been steady through the years, hope it’s restored next update. Glad to see more detail than the previous vague “Mali” category but I think 23andMe is still the most accurate.

Ancestry DNA 2026 update (Yoruba Nigerian + AA)

Nigeria is now broken into more accurate chunks of Yorubaland and Igboland which is accurate. I believe the igboland and everything that’s not Yorubaland comes from my AA parent.
