McDonald result....I am a mix of European, Berber and Amerindian. + with a touch of black (SSA).

I have a high North African score.....(28%.) North African.

well I know that my Caucasian ancestors came to Mexico from Spain, so it seems that the Iberian European component is so close to the mediterranean North African component (Berber) that his computer program combined some of my Southwest European and my North African and gave a total of 28%. My Berber is probably not as high. It could be probably at 10% and the rest of my "North African" could really be Iberian European (SouthWest European).

I could have up to 19% Turkish, or 28% Jewish he said.

'None.'

But I'm not sure he's correct based on 23andme (4.8%, too high to be nothing). Still it wouldn't surprise me to be completely European/Jewish. That said he found bits of Amerindian, East Asian and East African in me. Regardless his interpretation of my recent ancestry was pretty good.

All he emailed me back was the chromosome mosaic, a map with my old world average, a plot and the comment:


The new program says you are English.

No one is.

But being English = winning the ancestral lottery.

That's no piece of cake right there.
