I have three questions :

-> Is Ancestral_Altaic a turkic component ? A lot of people have this component in their results.
-> Is really Tungus-Altaic a Tungusic component ?
-> Is Near_Eastern an arabic component ?

Most of Turks have Ancestral Altaic and it can be decent proxy for Turks but Ancestral_altaic is not directly Turkic. It is Steppe and almost all populations have it.
Tungus Altaic points out East Eurasian people from Altai to the Manchuria. I don't know either it's exact reference is tungusic or not.
Eh i don't know actually but i think generalization it like Near_Eastern=Arab would be wrong.

Thank you for your answer. I think Tungus-Altaic is not really Tungusic but Turkic.
Most of turkic peoples have this component in their results unlike other peoples, according to the spreadsheet.
As a turk, I have 2.15% Tungus-Altaic and 2.58% Ancestral_Altaic.

It must be partly PIE steppe (besides Turkic). Otherwise why I score it 4.4% if I remember well. There aren't serious calcs which shows any East-Asian for me.

Do you talk about T-A or Ancestral_Altaic ?

He talks about AA. On the other hand the reason why Turks score TA is it is not only Tungusic but also Altaic. Some Turks already carry Tungusic though.

Yeah. Forgot Verenich add two "Altaic" components in this calc...
