As most of you have been seeing i've been doing research on my great grandmother on my mother's side ever since i figured out that i indeed had plenty of mediterranean ancestry (specifically iberian), and thus me also having a few percentages of Amerindian i decided to look into my Great grandmothers side which surname was da costa gomez, people say it's a portuguese surname, others say spanish etc so i don't really know but what i do know (atleast i think i know) is that the surname "Gomez" is most prevelent in Mexico, and then Colombia. Link where i found this here : http://forebears.io/surnames/gomez

Another website of which i cant find the link no more also said the same so i assume in one point of time it would be true.

Anyways here's what i found


MDLP World:

Population
Caucaus_Parsia 7.72
Middle_East 5.28
Indian 0.81
South_and_West_European 29.42
Melanesian 0.51
Sub_Saharian 21.80
North_and_East_European 27.42
Arctic_Amerind 1.01
East_Asian -
Paleo_African 3.89
Mesoamerican 2.09
North_Asian -


"Mesoamerican 2.09" if i am correct Mesoamerican is found in mexicans correct?

I'll also check the chromosome paintings to proof that there's definitely native american in there. Specifically Mesoamerican.

Okay so, "Mesoamerican" having the dark purple color, i'm seeing it peaking in a good amount of chromosomes and ill post it here

71426

And also here another test that i will use from also MDLP

these are the chromosome paintings for MDLP World-22, which is probably a more in depth version of MDLP World.

71427

And here are the percentages

Pygmy 0.57
West-Asian 5.50
North-European-Mesolithic 4.06
Indo-Tibetan -
Mesoamerican 0.79
Arctic-Amerind 0.45
South-America_Amerind 1.33
Indian 0.62
North-Siberean -
Atlantic_Mediterranean_Neolithic 21.82
Samoedic 1.83
Indo-Iranian 1.68
East-Siberean -
North-East-European 31.26
South-African 1.06
North-Amerind -
Sub-Saharian 24.19
East-South-Asian -
Near_East 4.59
Melanesian -
Paleo-Siberian -
Austronesian 0.22


and alot more other tests, that are less in depth when it comes to amerindian also show me having a few percent of native american, Dr McDonald's reading said that i had 2.30% native american aswell, AncestryDNA said i had 1-2%, and DNA.LAND said i had 1.2% Amazonian.

But besides that does this show me having proof of having ancestry from Latin America? more specifically aimed towards Colombia and Mexico, since i think that da Costa Gomez was mestizo- and alot of other people also said that she did look Mestizo could it be possible that she was also more mixed? Because if i do my Amerindian percentage x 4 i only get like 9.26% for da Costa Gomez, which i find fairly odd because it should be higher if she was indeed Mestizo right?

Once again he's a picture of her to help you determine, it could've also been possible that she had a bit of african ancestry, most likely also berber or north african ancestry, and possibly traces of middle eastern for all i know, and ofcourse european. (Iberian)

71428

lemme know what you think of my current research because i am not really certain on what 2 think, it could've been she's mexican but i think rather Colombian because if i am not mistaken colombians on average have less amerindian ancestry? Or am i completely wrong haha lemme know please because this took alot of my time haha
