Fulani from Guinea DNA results

Both my parents, grandparents and great grandparents are all Fulani from Fouta Djallon in Guinea as far as we know. I have always known we have some ancient admixture but was never sure what that was until I did some research. Pretty cool to see these results. I’ve also added the results from gedmatch.

Open to any questions!

Question about Deep Mani region Greece

This region of the extreme southern Peloponnese is a genetic outlier for mainland Greece and is firmly within the Aegean islands genetic cluster.

How did this region remain isolated, and when did their genetic profile form?

It seems like they should be descended primarily from the same wave of people in these ancient Corinth samples with only minor later admixture.

Even the Cyclades have more admixture than Deep Mani.

REPOST: Sudani Results W/ Improvised Fitting

This is meant to be an update on my previous post.

Okay, so I re-ran my models from a few days ago using a Global fit, and the results are noticeably better—especially for the Medieval period. The fits are tighter overall and line up well with multiple Vahaduo runs I did using my G25 coordinates.

Main Result:
Sudanese Nubians/Arabs are best modeled as a 3-way mix of:

  • Medieval Nubians
  • Additional Nilotic/Cushitic ancestry
  • Arabian-related input

Meanwhile, Medieval Nubians themselves fall along a 2-way cline:

  • Deep Nilotic (“Dinka-like”) ancestry native to Sudan/South Sudan
  • An ancient Northeast African component linked to populations native to modern day Egypt

The local Northeast African component is better proxied in models using West Eurasian-related ancestry and is believed to be a Natufian-like Egyptian hunter gatherer population.

Overall, this lines up pretty well with what we’d expect historically: continuity from indigenous Nilotic populations + a Northeast African layer + later historic Arabian input.

English, Ashkenazi Jew, Italian, Polish, from USA

My father was 1/2 Italian (Piedmont) and 1/2 Polish (Southern). My mother is 1/2 English/Scottish/Welsh, and 1/2 Ashkenazi Jew (Eastern and Western). on Ancestry DNA, my regions fit.

For DeepAncestry, I chose Ashkenazi Jew because otherwise it doesn't show up when I choose any of the European choices.

G25 ancestry calculator made for balkan people

Hey all,

I put together a simple ancestry calculator for people from the Balkans. If you have your G25 scaled coordinates, you just paste them in and it breaks down your ancestry into four components:

- Illyrian

- Thracian

- Eastern Roman Anatolian

- Balto-Slavic

It also shows you which modern and ancient populations you're closest to. There are 136 reference populations in there, regional breakdowns for Macedonians, Albanians, Greeks, Bulgarians, Serbs, Romanians, and a bunch of ancient groups (Iron Age Illyrians, Thracians, ancient Macedonians, Dardanians, etc.).

The solver uses a hybrid approach to deal with the fact that Illyrian and Thracian are genetically pretty close, a straight 4-way solve would give you unstable Illyrian/Thracian ratios that bounce around wildly. Instead it first solves a stable 3-way model with a combined Paleo-Balkan source, then splits that into Illyrian and Thracian. Keeps things sensible.

There's also a Pre-Slavic mode that removes the Slavic component and shows you what your pre-migration profile looks like compared to ancient populations. Plus an interactive PCA plot if you want to visualize where you sit.

Everything runs in your browser. Single HTML file, no server, no data sent anywhere. Works offline too.

You can copy your full results with one click if you want to share them here.

Slavic population?

Why does my brother have those Slavic ancestry and I don't? We're Spanish; the only foreigner in the family is my French great-grandfather.
