He is half south european(Tuscan/Spain) and half middle eastern, I would know about his middle eastern side because I see that middle eastern mixing with european I know that fit close of Jewish From Europe.

[Sacrificed Ram]

This old paper shows Lebanese Christians and Sephardic (maybe also including Mizhari) Jews are undifferentiated.

Probably is outdated.

In Syria there are several Christian communities some do have an ethnic Arabian origins and some that don’t. For example Assyrians and Aramaics, Greek speaking Christians called Rum, some trace their origins to the Arabian Ghassanids who had fled to the Levant from Ethiopian raids. Syria also host a small number of Bedouin Christians like Jordan, they are mostly Greek Orthodox who converted during Byzantine times. Some Bedouin Christian tribes are Al Twal, Akasheh, Hejazeen, clans of Banu Kalb, Banu Taghlib. However based on his results he seems to be just a Levantine Christian and not Assyrian.

If he is part Ghassanid then he is just a Syrian Christian. The Ghassanids were originally a south Arabian tribe who had fled from Yemen due to Ethiopian raids. However the Ghassanids had heavily intermixed with local Levantines that they genetically became Levantine. Most Ghassanid clans did not convert to Islam. Some Ghassanid also intermixed with the Byzantine nobility. Ghassanids also encouraged adoption of Christianity, unlike the Nabateans who were mostly pagan or adopted more of Jewish Christian sects. The Ghassanids actually reduced Nabatean influence in the Levant. Assyrians have a different genetic structure and are not Levantines but Mesopotamians. One Ghassanid clan converted to Islam and would provide wives from the Turko-Circassian Mamelukes of Egypt and the sultanate. The Mamelukes often got Arab wives to
legitimize their rule.

Just Levantine


They are still nomadic?

Not anymore but the keep the Bedouin traditions, and are proud of their Arabian origins despite being Christian. They celebrate Xmas as their most important holiday, followed by Easter. They don’t have much hostility to their Muslim Bedouin counterparts. Their diet slightly differs to, since they drink alcohol.

He scores a lot of Levantine-Muslim an Assyrian would not.

[Sacrificed Ram]

He scores a lot of Levantine-Muslim an Assyrian would not.

Probably he is discussing about it because recently Israel government created an ethnicity category called "aramean" that put syrian christians and assyrian christian together due they are aramaic speakers. It was criticized as attempt to divide christian arabs from muslim arabs in Israel (and Palestine).
