7/8 great grandparents are Ashkenazi from Eastern Europe and one was American with Irish, English, and German heritage. Maternal haplogroup is T1a1. Added 23 and Me results at the end.
Half Ezidi kurdish and assyrian with some mizrahi jewish ancestors on both sides (Long story I know).
Y-DNA: T-CTS6507.
Mtdna: R2a.
My phenotype is i would say a split between armenid and assyroid. (Face at the end)
Share your thoughts :)
I am majority NW German, Finnish, and norwegian
Is it a social construct or a real biological category
There are not many Polynesian results on this forum so thought I’d give it a go and share with you all :)
Overall very interesting results. It is believed that my people descended from Taiwan and settled in Samoa, and then our own voyagers spread across the entire Pacific Ocean.
Fathers family is from Campobasso in Molise, mothers maternal side is from Kastoria region in Greece and paternal side is Croatian from north western Croatia I beileve
Yörük background, Sarıkeçili clan (paternally)
Edit: north american hunter-gatherer %0.6 is not visible on the last image
Excluding all Italian and Greek populations, and listing those that have some basis for the comparison to be made. The question refers to genetics, ethnogenesis, overall ancestral similarity etc. it might not just be able to be answered by distance but also the amount of each component, etc.
TikTok video from the Ancestral Genome account, contains information about 20 ethnic groups with the highest Genetic Ancestry of Ancient Israel & Judah. But they didn't include Ethiopian Jews, Yemenite Jews, Lebanese Jews, Syrian Jews, but yea still a good video. What do you think about it?
Hey everyone, I could really use some help understanding my results because they seem confusing.
My known family background is:
Father’s side: Bayburt
Mother’s side: Rize
My paternal grandmother has a North Caucasian background.
My mother’s side also tested and the results are mostly Laz.
I also got around 65% Georgian on MyHeritage, and my G25 (Davidski) results fit my family history quite well. My closest populations are Meskhetians, Laz, Hemshin, Turkish (Trabzon/Erzurum)
G25 modern scaled models on Vahaduo even show a North Caucasian component which makes sense considering my grandmother.
What confuses me is my Deep Ancestry result. Instead of reflecting that pattern, it models me mainly as Urartian, Zagros/Iranian Plateau, etc.
but I expected the results to align more closely with my G25 results and my known family background.
Has anyone else experienced something similar, or can explain why these results seem so different?
So does this make me like a native with Byzantine Anatolian mix? Is that my closed fit for the modern age? Half Turkish half Ecuadorian
Hello, I have a question. Does anyone else think that G25 and determining ancestry based on genetic proximity and distance is just nonsense? How did this method of determining ancestry become popular when it is illogical in the context of determining ancestry and ancestry? Because there may be contemporary residents of one country who are descendants of their ancestors in the same country, but there is a country in the other half of the continent that appears in G25 as genetically closer to the ancestors of those people.

Is this typical for my ancestry? It looks like from this I am a mix of Levantine Armenian and Iranian. I don’t know where the Uzbek is from
The Darra-i-Kur Sample
Discovered in 1972, the Darr-i-Kus sample represents the fossil remains of a Midlle Bronze Age individual that was a member of a mobile cattle-herding pastoralist community that used the Darr-i-Kur caves located in Badakhshan, Afghanistan, as seasonal shelter.
The community is assumed to have a tribal structure without much hierarchy or social stratification.
The statistically closed population to it are Pashtuns and Pamiris.
