Oh, you have that too.. just click scientific.. it's extended version of Basic results.

[nittionia]

Not updated for me yet :/ Did your actual results update too?

[Ülev]

Podkarpackie, Poland, Hutsuls and so on
Ukrainian Hutsul culture bears a resemblance to neighboring cultures of western and southwestern Ukraine,[15][16] particularly Lemkos and Boykos. These groups also share similarities with other Slavic highlander peoples, such as the Gorals in Poland and Slovakia.[17]

Which region of Greece you have the most?

[Not a Cop]

Where do you find this map? It says mine were updated at 15 december, however i can't find any map.

Well Vlachs of course... Northern Greece and Thessaly.

No Slavic countries detected for me... that solves my Slavic ancestry belief.

I have Croatia because of Dalmatia and Bosnia because of Herzegovina, that was Theme of Dalmatia in Eastern Roman Empire up to 14th century I think Constantinople had possessions there.

Strongest matches in Flanders (duh; should be divided further IMO), followed by North Brabant then Utrecht, then Gelderland, then South Holland, then North Holland.

But like I told. They should divide Belgium in provinces too. Sadly, our culture is fucked up and lacks sense of patriotism. In fact, many of our politicians want to abolish the provinces and have one solid Flemish Region. Yuck.

I needed to get 23andme.. wish I could pay with iDeal. :picard1:

My mom's was updated today but none can be clicked on. Maybe the map is a separate update because her change log only says "recent ancestral locations updated".

[Dandelion]

It is accurate for you?

Fits the historical stereotype at least.

Brabant having been one duchy once upon a time. Also fits the migration patterns of Brabanders and Flemish to Holland in the 16th and 17th centuries for me to have some match there. They're the most mixed Dutch probably, even if Hollanders and other Northern Dutch also used to migrate to Antwerp back in the 15th century, it was at a far smaller scale.

[xripkan]

For me it says that it upgraded on 14th of December but the only change is that my Italian went from highly likely to likely match. There is no map.

[Dandelion]

My great-grandmother was North Brabantian, by the way. ;)

[Kelmendasi]

No update yet. Hope they update it quick, I wanna see what I get on this.

Russian yes, however not so much Slavic as other compatriots, too much Finnic and 14,3% NW Euro. South&Central Russians get up to 90-100 East Euro.

My missus' report was updated on the 15th "Recent ancestor locations last computed on December 15, 2018" but the map still isn't avaliable, maybe it takes a few days? Mine is still not updated, despite taking the test and having our results at the same time - we're both V5.


Those of you who have the map, when was your ancestry report updated? I'm curious to see how long we have to wait

From what I know the "ancestral locations" are actually just based on what ethnicity most of your matches are and not necessarily your own ancestry. This is what I read on some reddit page, idk how true it is but it may make sense

[xripkan]

But Dorians were R1b. E-V13 is about neolithic populations isn't it?

Since you score 100% Balkan do you have any variants outside of Albania?

Yes thats true, probably Pelasgic. 30% of Sesklo/Dimini samples were E-V13
Could it be dominated within the Aeolian population instead?

Bro, I've got more Italian than you. :)

Yh I get Greece, Croatia, Macedonia and a few other Balkan nations. Some of it doesn't make sense such as Croatia, I'm far more likely to have ancestry from Serbia than Croatia, but yet I don't get Serbia.

It makes a lot of sense if you have variants in FYROM or Greece but...Croatia could be from Catholic Albanians who found refuge there after the Ottoman occupation, no?

[xripkan]

Yes thats true, probably Pelasgic. 30% of Sesklo/Dimini samples were E-V13

Maybe if we consider Aeolians had Pelasgic ancestry. According to eupedia it definitely existed in ancient Greek world and it spread during the Greek colonisations.

[Kelmendasi]

It makes a lot of sense if you have variants in FYROM or Greece but...Croatia could be from Catholic Albanians who found refuge there after the Ottoman occupation, no?
Yh Greece, FYROM, and places like Montenegro would make sense, Considering how they all neighbout Albania, but Croatia is a little odd. It may be because of some Arbanasi(Albanians of Croatia), but they only really occupied the Dalmatia(Zadar in particular) region of Croatia, will have see which regions of Croatia I would match best.

Well for my mums side (UK) I get UK as match, and France as possible match. This is what I get for my paternal (Serb) side. My paternal ancestors migrated from West Bosnia, to Dalmatia in the 17th/18th centuries, and 23andme claims to go back up to 500 years, possibly why I get Bosnia as high match.

Mine have done opposite, came to Kordun from Dalmatia xD Interesting.

Don't have matches in Slavic territories? Amazing and Weird for both you and me.

[Carpatz]

Nothing changed for me except that I now get "possible match" under Italian.

[Ayetooey]

My locations just got updated a few moments ago, all that changed is Bosnia went down from "likely" to possible. No regions yet or map.

Are these accurate regions for you? When did you get your region map.

[Luke35]

Nope. I have 4 great grandparents born in Hungary: Sagvar (SW Hungary). Ungvar (NE Hungary). Magy (NE Hungary). The fourth I am not sure. They gave me three regions in Poland, all with strong connection. I have no idea what that is about as to the best of my knowledge all my great great grandparents on my Hungarian side were born in Hungary. My mom's side is very Western Euro so it is unlikely to be related to that. I got the update 2 days ago.

Did anyone get the map update yet? My 23andme recently updated on the 18th but the only thing that changed was the country matches.

Same happened to me. Update should come through soon hopefully. I just hope it's actually accurate. If it's based off random 4th cousins and not genetic reference pops then it'll likely be BS.

Apparently if you get someone who actually got chosen for the beta to look at your results through the connections tab, they see different regions, as they see the future ones 23andme haven't added in yet. I'm gonna test it out later when someone on my 23andme connections list is online and post if there's any differences.

Nah not really. The matches that I have from these countries are all natives of those countries and not Albanians, all the matches from Greece for example are Greeks. Anyhow, a Romanian shouldn't be talking about people not staying in their own country.

Click the link. Then you need to click on settings. Roll down and click on beta program. You will be able to see your maps within a minute.

Thanks bro. Been waiting for some time now. Appreciate it.

I can trace my ancestry back to Tuzi area within Podgorica region, but don't know why it's not darker.

I don't know of any ancestry from Plav, but I don't doubt it since it's also an Albanian populated region.

Can't comment on the accuracy. There were/are many Jews in Tehran and Isfahan.

Iraq:

Very accurate! And impressive - the last member of my family left Baghdad in 1823.

Morocco:

http://i66.tinypic.com/r720y0.jpg

Understandable. They're giving me Morocco because I'm Sephardi and once, Morocco was over 5% Sephardi. However, my ancestry is not Moroccan.

Poland:

http://i64.tinypic.com/15fm808.jpg

I have ancestry from much of central and south Poland, including most of the regions demarcated. I am not sure which is Jewish and which Polish, but I believe my Polish ancestor is from Plock, in the Warsaw (Masovia) vovoideship.

Iran:

It isn't the best as of now, hopefully it gets better. I assume they picked up Ulqin first as that is the region of Montenegro with the most Albanians, Podgorica and Plav also had historical Albanian populations. The Albanian report for mine was off as well, I got Korce, Fier, and Vlore before Shkodra and Dibra despite my ancestry being from those 2 regions of Albania and not the other 3. Interestingly I also get Romania and Croatia as possible matches.

[Voskos]

I know I was just quoting that Serbian historian, who claims that Spartans are Serbs, of course that comes from proper Greeks.

I assume that Slavs mixed with Romans in Dalmatia (When Constantinople owned the Dalmatian possessions) also I have confirmed ancestry from Herzegovina which is just a broader Dalmatia.

I do think that I2a1 Dalmatians are Slavicized Romans (people who mixed with Slavs) cause they are of the same Haplo (I2a1) like Sardinians.

But that's just my assumption. Time will tell.

Very accurate for me.

Yeah. I'm actually pretty impressed I got any regional link. Ancestry doesn't give me one. Although there's no way of knowing how legit it is.

[frankhammer]

Is everybody who had the update v5 so far?

[Ayetooey]

Apparently if you get someone who actually got chosen for the beta to look at your results through the connections tab, they see different regions, as they see the future ones 23andme haven't added in yet. I'm gonna test it out later when someone on my 23andme connections list is online and post if there's any differences.

Announcement for everyone. Just had someone who legit received the beta a week ago check my maps through the my connections tabs, and my matches are quite different on his end, and I match with 2 extra countries, specifically Greece and Serbia. These matches everyone who has opted in are likely placeholders, and will change very soon once the beta ends.

I have deep blue in Apulia of south Italy. Could it be just genetic similarity that 23andme algorithm reads it as a recent ancestry?

[Lucas]

I really doubt it will be much improvement as regional averages are based on customers results, but their assign them using their postal addresses apparently. And people could settle in given region just few years ago...
I saw German people results were many have Berlin as main region which is laughable as it is Germany melting pot...

For some countries like Russia or Spain there are academic regional averages so maybe they use them instead. But still not for every region.

I heard this from reddit, that this locations beta is just from the cousins that you match with on 23andme, that declared there ancestry, not from actual testing.

Can't confirm if it's true, but if it's the case, then this new feature is nothing new.

Possibly. All your locations will change once the beta ends by the way, someone who got his results a week ago without opting in checked my matches through the connections tab, I have different locations including Greece and Serbia. I'm not entirely convinced it's purely through cousins self identification. Through my maternal side I match with south-west France, I have 0 DNA relatives from that region on 23andme.

Maybe, if it changes it's probably likely that it's actual testing. I have doubts as well, because I simply can't believe 23andme can trace out specific particular regions especially in the balkans. The regions they can't get or trace, they probably just choose the next closest region, like they did in this beta for me. How long did that person wait to get actual results, not beta, do you know?

[Ayetooey]

The current results are definitely inaccurate though. My paternal side is 100% from Sibenik-Knin county and I don't get it on my match list at all, where as I've seen all sorts of people on this thread match with it.

Yeah it seems bulk. I laughed when I saw you get Sibenik-Knin county on your map, since I don't even match it and half my family are from there. I'm sceptical also since I apparently will be getting Greece with the update and I have 0 dna relatives from there.

It's a possibility the matches we get at the moment are complete placeholders, since we opted in, and the person who connected with me saw different matches for myself. I'm not sure when we get the real results, I'd guess sometime in January though. I might email 23andme and ask them the vetting process for these matches. If it were done properly they would be DNA testing people from each region and using them as reference pops, but I highly doubt they've gone to all that trouble.

That's actually a fun thing many people don't understand - same happened when there was an anthropological study of Russians - results made no sense, as traits seemed to be distributed randomly, and only after one smart guy put a river map over the anthro map it all made sense - before modern times only propper way to travel was by boats in summer or by sleigh in winter.

Crap, I really wish I was able to post pics now.

Anyway, like I said in a post yesterday, I was interested to see the "Russia" component in my Eastern European category highlight bashkortostan and surrounding regions (Orenburg and such). Could be a fluke, but the feature actually seems Fairly accurate. Maybe real, but Very distant? I dunno.

I think this new feature is based on self-reported birthplaces of your matches in 23andMe database. So you have matches with some people born in Bashkortostan - doesn't necessarily mean that they are ethnic Bashkirs and/or native to that region for many generations.

Right, and there are more Slavs there than anything- I just found it odd how that was the only place...lol....

My mother always does say that "someone from Russia" became part of our "Polish" side, but I usually took that to just mean they were in the territory of the Russian Empire...

I doubt she meant Congress Poland when saying "from Russia".

Congress Poland had autonomy within the Russian Empire, and was part of it only since 1815. Unlike the Western Krai (also called Ziemie Zabrane - Taken Lands in Polish) which was annexed by Russia already in 1772-1795:

Warsaw for example was under Prussian Partition until 1807.

But it would be from the Western Krai where my ancestors came from- northern Minsk region, Belarus.

I hope the beta ends soon.

So is this accurate or take it with a grain of salt? I'm not aware of any Lebanese ancestry on paper within the last 200 years like 23andme says

Not accurate for me.

Mine used to say Germany when they were using the dot system, which was correct. It than switched to Switzerland and gives me a "possible match", which is wrong. In the last 200 years I know for a fact I had family living in Germany. If anything, both countries should be placed under recent locations. I also get 50.3% in the French&German category, so it's no small amount.

Here is a post from a guy who has researched it alot. It seems they use a poor method of gathering self reported data for the "recent ancestor locations".

I used to frequent that subreddit, Poptech gets a lot of hate from fanboys there, but he's bang on correct, it's all based on self reporting, and that builds up the dots and reference pops. As an example, I've got distant American cousins with roots in Croatia on 23andme who have put Austria as their grandparents birth place, because Croatia was part of the Austro-Hungarian empire.

Still don't have anything more on my Finnish, Balkan and Siberian admixture unfortunately. But pretty accurate in my opinion.
