I don't know.

I get 44 asia minor 9-10 turkic rest european, if it's really go as far as 2000 years results are accurate.

But i don't have Anatolian ancestor in recent 400 years.

Im not sure either, but i think it's a good company and i think it suits gedmatch better than 23andme.

Can you share your FTDNA and eurogenes k13 result? So we can compare.

I don't think it suits gedmatch btw

I never did FTDNA, but I did do 23andme and uploaded it to gedmatch. I heard that FTDNA detects later ancestry, like for instance slav ancestry in greeks, albanians.

Do other Pomaks also score so much Siberian/East Asian? I thought you people were just Muslim Bulgarians.

No i'm not lol. MyHeritage shows 34 asia minor and FTDNA 44. I never did Ancestry or 23andme, but gedmatch is accurate as you said.

My 100% Pomak cousin scored 4% siberia, also more baltic than actual Bulgarians. I'm half Balkan Turk. (Balkan Turks usually score about 1-3 Siberian, also their company results usually like 100% balkan, they don't score Asia Minor too.) So i don't know why they shows me Asia Minor.

I have other 2 Pomak kit, one of them have 2% Siberia, other have 3.5%.

Your Gedmatch results seem more usual than what MyHeritage and FtDNA gave you. Only thing that stands out is the bizarrely high East Asian and Siberian score. According to this, you are almost 10% mongoloid/East Eurasian.

I agree. That is unusual. Almost more than Turkey average. Rest is okey but i really don't know why MyHeritage and FTDNA gave me this. I think I should order an Ancestry kit in order to fix it.
