Spanish and Portuguese 23andme results!

[Sikeliot]

Any person who attempts to compare Madeirans to Dominicans phenotypically is a sick moron.

Correct. Like I said they are the Portuguese equivalent of white southerners from Louisiana.

Everything under 1% is practically noise.

This statement doesn't make any sense. Practically noise means it's not noise.


In any case, the Iberian component of 23andme is based on Iberian samples from academia AND on Iberian customers from the versions before V4. Unsurprisingly, most Iberians get 97-100% Iberian since they match very well the reference population. It doesn't tell anything about the origins of Iberians.

No it wasn't originally a plantation society. Read my post about Madeira history again.

Here is what people from Madeira look like. They have been compared on this forum to Dominicans by people with trollish intentions:

they look no different from other Portuguese to be honest, pretty European looking to me
very surprising cause on ABF, the pictures posted out there showed them looking very non-white

It depends on which photos are selected. Endovelico will of course not post anyone who looks exotic.

That's what me and other portuguese posters have been saying for years. The pictures on ABF have not come from portuguese users for sure.

And also, the people posted there are most likely not ethnic Madeirans.

the day i am able to find an extremadura, Valencia and Andalusian AncestryDNA, that day I will cry

anyways im thinking of getting native spaniards tested with AncestryDNA because I wanna see their European breakdown regions and it will help us with other Latinos in figuring out who is contributing to the Italy/Greece the most

[alnortedelsur]

And MY point is, for all you know everyone in that video above may score up to 5% SSA, you just cannot see it in their looks and they would probably not know it was there unless they tested.

I myself score between 4-6% SSA (depending on the source: 23Andme, AncestryDNA, gedmatch, etc) and I don't show any SSA influence on my phenotype.
