This test sounds interesting, apparently, it has the same algorithm of 23andme.

Most likely fit is 96.0% (+- 0.2%) Europe (all Western Europe)

and 4.0% (+- 0.2%) America (various subcontinents)



The following are possible population sets and their fractions,

most likely at the top

Spain= 0.960 Columbian= 0.040 or

Spain= 0.959 Maya= 0.041 or

Spain= 0.963 Karitiana= 0.037 or

Spain= 0.960 USA_East= 0.040 or

Spain= 0.963 Surui= 0.037 or

Spain= 0.960 Pima= 0.040 or

Spain= 0.956 Na-Dene= 0.044



which is not exactly unusual. It is most unfortunate that we don’t have any South American

comparison panels that are not VERY tribally specific .. i.e. absolutely nothing Andean.



I did a custom fit and get when fitting three populations, good but not great fits:



Basque 0.6214 Tuscan 0.3368 Columbian 0.0418 or

Basque 0.6138 Italian 0.3440 Columbian 0.0422



and for four populations, excellent fits:



Basque 0.6277 Tuscan 0.3119 Mozabite 0.0193 Columbian 0.0411 or

Basque 0.6319 Tuscan 0.2821 Jewish 0.0447 Columbian 0.0413 or

Basque 0.6319 Tuscan 0.2946 Georgian 0.0322 Columbian 0.0413 or

Basque 0.6324 Italian 0.2530 Georgian 0.0741 Columbian 0.0406 or

Basque 0.6272 Tuscan 0.3041 Adygei 0.0284 Columbian 0.0403 or

Basque 0.6292 Tuscan 0.2950 Sephardic 0.0339 Columbian 0.0418



This means you really are Basque/Italian.North African plus American native.

Fits with large BAsque do not lie.

Yes, buddy, it's interesting, and is curious that "Basque" is considered different of Iberian and either french. Although I think that they consider it South European.

From your profile info you are not Tuscan or Italian thought

He basically says 23andme is more accurate than ancestrydna and ftdna, the latter missing small important parts.

This genetic test is millimetrical fitting

That would give you 25% Tuscan

And it match your 30-20% genetic Tuscan of this test

True. Tuscans emigrated fewly. And the few who emigrated are mostly those from Lucca or Lunigiana/Garfagnana and they went mostly in Argentina, Brazil or Venezuela (not even in USA or Australia)

Yeah, quite typical in that sense, although here, the most of spanish immigrants came from Galicia, and italians from the south.
But yes, basques and tuscans descendants are not weird. ;)

Tuscans had few reasons to emigrate as for now our region was alway a prosperous and
Rich

We are rich also today; our region is one of the four engine of Europe.

And we never went over-babied also in the past.

Those from Pisa were always in contact with South America; as they traficqued with their ships also with the Americas

That s why those from the port of Tuscany emigrated there usually for the same port conection

I'm not Basque, but there are many white Louisianians that are of Basque descent, but are of French Basque descent. Lots of French Basque came to Louisiana during its colonial times. Among Spaniards that came here, it was Canarians, Andalusians and Castilians. But anyway, that's cool you are Basque. I know you must be proud. It's an interesting ancestry.

Yes... the case of my grandma's migration was because her father (my great-grandpa) was sended here to work in a very important Bank at that moment called "Banca Francese e italiana per l'America del Sud" (after it changed the name for "Banco Sudameris") and after came the war and they decided to stay here.
So, it wasn't exactly an economical reason.

So it seems you great fans father was from a comercial burgeoise or aristocratic family
As at that time only those would work and having studied to work in a bank even if they were simple white collars

You are Partly Livornese then.

They are truly culturally two different cities

Erronkari
07-07-2017, 01:17 AM
Yes, I know haha. But I like both.
Indeed my family there lives close of both cities, in a very little town called Valtriano di Fauglia.
One time my dad and me were in Florence, and he started to talk with a couple from there.
My dad told them that my grandma was from Pisa and inmediately the man laughing answered: "Ah nooooo, tu non mi puoi dire questo... meglio avere un morto in casa che un pisano all'uscio...". :p
It's very common that...

GiCa
07-07-2017, 01:29 AM
^actually I that those of Pisa hate those of Livorno because the port of Pisa disappeared due to land natural enlargement

The great duchy of Tuscany decided not to move Pisa towards the new coast but to make a new port nearby Pisa ex-novo: Livorno inhabiting it with different people comes from elsewhere on Tuscany and also Europe to live in the new city


That s the reason

Erronkari
07-07-2017, 01:37 AM
Yes, indeed now Livorno has the harbour and it can consider a most modern City... but Pisa has two advantages as you know: The University, and of course the tourism (especially around Piazza dei Miracoli).
In my opinion all Tuscany is awesome, wonderful.
Although I haven't gone to some parts of the region, like Garfagnana, Ludigiana and the city of Pistoia.
San Gimignano in my opinion is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
I've never seen something similar.

In some cases could be...
I have tuscan family, only from one side, the majority is iberian, but It's true, spanish, north-italian and tuscan cluster are really near.
Indeed tuscan cluster is farer with abruzzese and sicilian.
It's interesting!

Erronkari

07-10-2017, 02:30 AM
This is what he gave me back in 2013:

Most likely fit is 81.2% (+- 6.9%) Europe (various subcontinents)
and 18.8% (+- 6.9%) Mideast (various subcontinents)


All of which is saying it looks very much like Italian but
with some more eastern component, yet does not look
like it is farther east than the eastern shores of the Adriatic.

Indeed my cluster is among Basque area and Aragon.

It's more common in Switzerland and North Italy.

Grazie mille! :D
Mi piacciono moltissimo gli Stornelli toscani.
Riguardo i livornesi, è
vero, sono abbastanza testardi e paragonati agli altri toscani sono un po più cafoni o meno raffinati che gli altri toscani (i toscani sono fini in genere, quello fa si che altri italiani vi abbiano antipatia). È classico che dicono "i toscani mi stanno sul cazzo", ma non spiegano perché... sembrerebbe che sia invidia. Non trovo un'altra spiegazione.
Anche potrebbe darsi che la particolare situazione di Livorno, essendo un porto sul Tirreno ed avendo ricevuto in altri tempi abbastanza immigranti, come gli ebrei sefarditi dalla Spagna e il Portogallo, e gente da diversi punti del Mediterraneo fa si che abbiano una maniera di essere e di fare molto particolare.
Ma certamente sono d'accordo che hanno anche molte virtù, specialmente il fatto che sono molto simpatici e chiacchieroni. :p
