    To my eye she seems to pass as a full North-African, or maybe a harniza or mestiza ...at least to me.
    She doesn't really look N.African to me but i wonder what they call "central American", is it really native American, or something in a more recent sense (like a mix of native and Hispanic etc..)

    That could make sense. Or maybe it was more like an oracle than an admixture calculator.

    The polynesian that she was mentioning..I can see that too. Her skin tone and features do seem to have some affinity to polynesian-islanders.

    No idea if their native american reference could be a mix or not. Makes sense as being the case for her in particular I would imagine. According to info on their Founder-Population-Project which they're finalizing( http://helpcenter.myheritage.com/DNA...ns-project.htm ) they want to collect samples from their website members whose "family trees exemplify consistent heritage from the same region or ethnicity for many generations". ...But if they did use a heavily mixed population for their native reference I would agree that it indeed does seem like a bad decision on their part. ....I wonder what kind of Native samples were used for 23andme and Ancestry.com.

    How about outside Latin-America where do you think she might be able to fit outside of it IYO?

    I can see how she could be mistaken for Polynesian like she was saying. Actually I can see her passing in Easter Island, or even Tahiti.
