Because i recently figured out that if you have 13% middle eastern for example the calculators just compare your results to reference populations or such and so you come out with results such as Greek, Sicilian, Balkan, etc etc. But how can i know where my percentage of Middle eastern comes from? Because i am 100% certain by now that i have ancestors from that area, in every single test i've done i've had atleast 2.45% Near eastern or SW/W asia, the percentage never goes lower than 1% so i am certain it's not just noise, but is there a calculator that can figure out my middle eastern origin or am i just stuck with these results? haha

Arent you yemeni
Well that's the problem, i don't know! my lowest 1 population approximation distance was indeed Yemen but i am not certain if my ancestry is actually FROM Yemen because i'm getting all types of Levantine/Arab/Middle eastern results so i am fairly confused. However i am Biracial/Triracial, half Afro caribbean half european-american, so i am srsly confused where the middle eastern comes from. It could be from Greece, the balkans, Italy, idk but its a decent percentage (1%-21.2%) so yeah that means something 2 me atleast
(edit)
And also i made this account after i saw my Yemeni results on Gedmatch so thats why my username is like this haha XD
