Like, by now i already know i am mixed as hell. I calculated my percentage of African, European, and West Asian/Middle eastern and it all makes sense to me. However AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, DNA.LAND, Gencove, and the Eurogenes tests on Gedmatch always overestimate certain percentages.
According 2 my knowledge i should be around:
23-26% African
45-60% European
4-21% Middle Eastern
However AncestryDNA gave me a flat fucking 60% british.. 60%! that's the same amount for a british native and i ain't even more than half european. However it did give me 3% Middle east, 2% central asian, 0-6% on middle east, and 0-4% on central asian, MyHeritage gave me 6.1% middle eastern, however Gencove, and DNA.LAND just give me Mediterranean Islander and Eastern Mediterranean, and the reference populations they used were Sicily, Albania, Greece, Malta, etc. and the percentages were 13% and 14% respectively.. However could it be that they just fucked up my west asian percentage and put it in the Eastern Med catagory? It would make more sense 2 me since my lowest oracles for middle eastern countries were:
Using 1 population approximation:
1 Yemen @ 6.961918
2 BedouinA @ 16.481928
3 Jordanian @ 21.215069
4 Palestinian @ 22.192869
5 Syrian @ 22.702269
And i tend to score Jordanian and Palestinian on many other tests of Gedrosia, i also figured that Mediterranean also partially belongs to the East_Med which is probably the levant so Eurogenes also gives me 15% and 13% on middle eastern now, it could be that my 14/13% Eastern Mediterranean is actually Levantine?
DNA.LAND also kinda said the same, i got 13% Mediterranean Islander, but when i hovered my mouse over the Ancestry Circle behind it it also said 13% Ashkenazi/Levantine, so it could be either Levantine or Mediterranean? Anyone help here pls? <:^)
