AncestryDNA underestimates SSA

[CYKA]

It gives me 2% when calculators give me 5 - 7%. If you get SSA multiply it by 3 imo.

[rein]

So if I get 33% SSA, it’s actually 99%?

[Gründig]

Who says the calculators are right? Why is ancestry automatically wrong?

:confused:

[alnortedelsur]

That's bull shit. It would mean that I score 18%SSA instead of 6%.

I score 4% SSA on 23andme, and I don't score more than 4-7% SSA in any gedmatch calculator.

And I am light years away from looking quadroon or octoroon.

[Taiguaitiaoghyrmmumin]

It gives me more ssa than 23andme and gedmatch calculators. I dont know where you get that from.
Same with my heritage i think. I know it gave me less west african

[Taiguaitiaoghyrmmumin]

Yephttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180708/31b5cd7b08cde36ca627d60685ef4b60.jpg
Im definitely about a quarter west african. Heritage is just terrible.

[CYKA]

Ancestry 2% (1% mali, 1% southeastern bantu)

Myheritage 4.3 nigerian

Wegene 5.36 (bantuSA 2.97, others 2.39%)

MLDP K11 5.33% ssa

Eurogenes k13 NortheastAfrican 0.84
Sub-Saharan 4.17

No need for me to worry about SSA Components. All of my DNA tests yielded 0% SSA, whether at My Heritage, FTDNA, Ancestry, or 23andMe. Sometimes life is simple.

[CYKA]

PuntDNAL k15 just gave highest so far
W_African 5.00
Horn_Of_Africa 2.51

True but how much white do you have vs caucasus and west asian; )

I was just funning with it for the lols. No offense intended. As for the Caucasus and West Asia, it's debatable that they're White too, because the US Census Bureau has viewed it that way for a long time.

Here it is: 14.7% West Asian and 84.5% European. The remaining percent is primarily undefinable (or unassigned). And, as I said before, there's 0% SSA.

Cool thats actually the highest european ive seen for armenian. What kind of european?

Usually i see like a stew of west asian,caucasus,middle east with a dash of eastern european.

There's no Slavic Component, or very little. The largest component is matched to Italy, but I don't have any direct link to Italian relatives. That's me in the Avatar.

My European Components:

54.7% Italy

0.2% Balkans

12.2% Broadly Southern European

2.3% French & German (Switzerland)

8.1% Broadly Northwestern European

6.8% Broadly European

Can you just put you're a Mexican in your profile instead of trying to make yourself sound interesting?

But im not from Mexico and from what i've seen my components are different from avg mexican. My haplotype is not found in mexico for example.

Where's your homeland ancestry place, or country? I'd like to know?

[Taiguaitiaoghyrmmumin]

Ancestries west eruasian ethnicity seems shit also.
I get very different ethnicity estimates from my dad but still shows us related

what is your actual ancestry then?

[CYKA]

Ive said it over and over . Sierra nevada indian, european and half Spanish. But show 1/4—1/8 MeNa, black and my haplotype is onlll ftom india mostly

I feel bad for you man.

[CYKA]

I feel bad for you man.
Thanks. Yeah it's hard, wish I got my moms last name instead of my biodads. But the fact that his haplotype is noneuro is a little bit of a condolence
