I cluster the closest to the Mizrahi Jews, but I'm very distant from the western Jewish peoples.

IBD sharing measures recent sharing.

Interesting that Ashkenazim share low IBD with southern Italians, despite plotting with them autosomally. Means the link is very ancient and not due to recent mixture between the two.

Those doesn't make sense that ashkenazis get German before Syrian or Iranian.

IBD sharing says "Who did _____ absorb mixture from more recently?"

Yes, in such case it makes sense.

Sorry but why Morocco Jews have Polish quite high? It's nonsense. They didn't live in Central Europe liek Ashkenazi.

Part of their ancestry came from Spanish Jews.

Yes, I am not sure why they are showing Polish either. Is that number actually a "high" number though, compared with similarities among other populations, using IBD sharing?

Still I'm not sure how this would lead to Poland though.

[XenophobicPrussian]

Interesting how high the numbers are for Lithuanians/Poles with Askhenazis. I wonder how much of the southern shift in Poles is actually from Jews vs neolithic farmers. I think one of the Dark Ages Slavic samples from the Czech Republic was closest to Lithuanians(but if modern Lithuanians also have a lot of Jewish admixture who would the ancient Lithuanians be closest to? doesn't get more northern than them).

Maybe it's one of the reasons Poland can produce group photos like this:

Balto-Armenids makes sense for Ashkenazim

Unbelivible. Maybe they are imported - they all look like Russkies :laugh:

It may be because of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain. Previously a lot of ashkenazies jews arrived to Spain from other countries where they were expelled from, as well.

So, along the sephardi jews from Spain, many other jews were expelled to, and many of them to Northern Africa.

I don't see Moroccan_Jews sharing anything special with Polish. It's what Jews share with several populations not the other way around, especially since those who converted, absorbed some admixture then sticked to their tribe in most cases.
