Scoring Jew on autosomal calcs?

[dddcc]

I was baffled by the fact that some of my closest oracles hypothetise me as 50%North European+25%North African +25% Jew and by my scoring of nearly 10% ashkenazi at FTDNA and Dna Land.
Herein MY CLOSEST ORACLE RESULTS (ONLY ORACLES WITHOUT ANCIENT POPULATIONS INCLUDED AND WITH GENETIC DISTANCE <3 AND WERE KEPT) :

To complicate things furthermore n-Monte analysis of my FTDNA raw data performed by Mr.Vadim Verenich gave me these intriguing results:

Afaik I dont have Jewish ancestors (all I came out with is that some of my northafrican ancestors bear surnames common to both Muslims and Jews such as Kammun and Besbes)
Do you agree with me that the showing up of jews in oracles of a half European half Northafrican mixed person is a hiatus due to calcs biase to perceive the combination of arab+european admixture as Jewish?

[dddcc]

Bump

[Maguzanci]

Im not sure but the best person to ask is Petalpusher.

[DanielJ1eH]

I'm a non-Jew and I get Jewish in my Oracle as well. They're just used as reference populations.

[sql]

Congratulations!


I'm a non-Jew and I get Jewish in my Oracle as well. They're just used as reference populations.

What is your ethnicity? Which Jewish groups, which calculator, and to what extent?

[dddcc]

Have you tried the Eurogenes Jtest from GEDmatch? If you score Jewish in any of the oracle results, it could be real.

I got results in line with my ancestry (the genetic distance deviating up to 3 is probably due to my Sudanese maternal great grandfather) on Eurogenes Jtest without a Jewish population in the Oracle's

[Maguzanci]

Or ask some other guys on Anthrogenica.

Have you contacted those few other Tunisian members on there?

[sql]

J test is shit. It says I'm like 15% Jewish.

[Petalpusher]

Broken down in 1/4 you could be 25% Jew, cause they are half mena/Euro. Wether you are 1/4 something or not, it will generate a possible 25%, but you are just half Tunisian half N.Euro.

The Jtest fits are pretty good and spot on. Eutest & Jtest are still good calculators, they are never far from reality in the approximations they generate (if you are a mix of things).

[Graham]

You can't always take oracle population matches too literally.

[Voskos]

I score Jew as well
