GEDmatch Eye Color Predictor

[Damião de Góis]

I think it's more accurate now than before. My prediction was close enough and i think my eye color is difficult to predict.

Mine look considerably less hazel than the illustration, but the description seems accurate. Alex has a few that add melanin, while I have none.

Close, but I don't have nearly as much amber in my eyes, just a few very small flecks which are barely visible. My actual eye color is more like Loki's predicted eye color:

Looks like those "adds yellow, amber, some darkening" mutations are quiet dominant, Kadu. ;)

[Damião de Góis]

I'm still not sure what caused their "green" prediction. The presence of two "Penetrance modifier, Blue." along with some "Adds melanin (...)" ?

Overall, it is a good prediction. The colour is close, and it got the gray ring around the outer edge right. It missed the yellow/amber flecks I have, though. Also, I don't think I have a brown sphincter. It is darker, but not brown in my opinion.

Alex and Graham's predictions were amazingly close, too.

For comparison, here is my eye:

http://i.imgur.com/ZU83r.png

My iris crypts and contraction furrows are quite prominent. The crypts actually cover my entire iris, but the lighting isn't good enough to show it. The color has lightened substantially over the years from regular brown, to a yellow/copper brown. Maybe I'll get lucky and get some green eyes in time.

I've actually had some people claim I have some green in my eyes already. Does anyone see it? In the picture I posted they look brown to me on most LCDs, and a bit green toward the outside on others. Thoughts?

Seems like Gedmatch's predictions overestimate the SNPs decreasing pigmentation quite often. Its prediction wasn't accurate for me too.

Our "eye color SNPs" must be similar then.
They did a better job than 23andme, who predicted them to be likely brown.

It's interesting that I have brown eyes despite the fact that all my grandparents have / had light ones. I inherited it from my mother but her are lighter (hazel-brown). I wonder how they can predict it.

Funny I was just checking out the eye colour prediction for my family members. This is my dad's prediction:

What is this colour? Light violet? Ice blue? Looks like some kind of an Albino eye colour imo. Never seen anyone with that eye colour in real life.

My great grandfather from father's side had a color like this. It is a very light blue. It may sometimes look violet because his eyes would get irritated because his eyes where sensitive. Elizabeth Taylor had "violet" eyes but I think it was because of the same condition. Very rare color these days though.

Exactly. That's why I called it an Albino eye colour. :P Although, my grandmother (who passed away before I could get her tested :( ) did have this kind of colour around the corners of her eyes. She had such strange eyes. The inner circle was brown/greyish while the outside was blue/violet. I even remember the nurse at the hospital saying that she had never seen anyone with that eye colour. Too bad I couldn't get her tested.

That is actually very close to your real eye colour! My grandmother has brownish eyes but gedmatch predicted her colour as amber/green/yellow. The funny thing is that her brother has that exact colour! I don't have a picture of her brother's eyes on my laptop but I do have a picture of his son, who has that eye colour without the green:

Grandma's eyes according to Gedmatch:

http://v2.gedmatch.com/af8139_11_.jpg

The colour of my grandmother's brother, just imagine it with a bit more green, like in the picture gedmatch predicted it:

Although some of the colours aren't spot on, we do have family members with the exact colour predicted by gedmatch. Like I said before, my grandmother her brother has the exact same colour as predicted in my grandmother her results. Tho, my father's prediction is pretty off. What is that colour anyway? I can only imagine an albino with that colour. (but then again, my grandma did have that eye colour mixed with some other colours. very strange.)

Cool story.

The implication (or teasing) was that "turanians" can't have coloured eyes. My grandmother is the most turanid looking person in our family. Her family didn't mix with outsiders until recently. She even knows her clan. She and her brothers have green/blue eyes. My paternal grandmother don't know her tribe(+ there is some known mixing with andalusian muslims), She has dark brown eyes.

I will test her or her brother this summer. But the brother is sick and old (95+) and my grandma is very stubborn i don't think she will accept to take the test.. She's also 90+ years old.

So I "hope" i can prove your point this summer..

You quoted me out of context. I said the western Central Asians go below, but that the Turkic ethnogenesis was further east. It's the Turkic way anyway - ie, a few men set up a dynasty, such as the Tatars, Krymchaks, etc. All mainly indigenous.

No, that's not what you said and don't even try playing the 'English isn't your first language' card. Here is your quote again:

You didn't say Western Central Asians go below. You said that only the Western Central Asians are as little as that (i.e as less AS 34% Mongoloid).

No, it means no eastern group dips as low as 34% (which of course is true, depending on how you define 'eastern;' indeed I could have said 50%, it's you who brought up 34%, unsurprisingly 34% is not the exact EEA percentage of any Central Asian group I know) and western groups hit 34% and/or below, which they do but not by very much.

Here, more simply: you said 'Central Asians are 34%.' I said 'what? Only western groups go as far as 34%.' It doesn't mean 34% is the lowest they go, it means they're the only ones who go that far.

Either way the point is entirely moot. If Turkey is 6% EEA and Mongolia is 90% EEA between Turkey and Mongolia there will of course be territories with 7, 8, 9, 33, 34, 35 and so on percent. Suggesting 'aha we're not pure Turks but we're at least 1/3 pure Turkmen' is quite idiosyncratic. Either way there's not much secondary evidence in your favour.

You're using outdated runs. It's hardly EEF/WHG/ANE, is it now? On GEDmatch, use their K7/ANE Eurogenes breakdown, everything else is worthless.
It's not worthless. These runs are pretty much the same only breaking down different parts of autosomal DNA - more detailed etc.. It has never happened that an ethnic group showing 34% Mongoloid admix in one run, turned out as little as 10% Mongoloid admix in other runs. The only difference is that admixtures are labeled differently but most of these admix runs are the same.

More detailed, less accurate.

Right but my point wasn't that you're not related to Turkmen (although as you say, the admixture isn't exactly going to be that high) it's that your mongoloid ancestry will be very low. Then you (plural) jumped on me. That said whilst your Dodecad breakdowns might look like 40% your direct ancestry levels will probably be considerably lower.

You're misinterpreting me. And the Turkic homelands spread from the far East, everyone knows that. Turks and Mongols are/became related to one another with the Turkic migrations being fuelled by the Mongol invasions. Many people and tribes were considered 'Turko-Mongols.' The Turkic peoples themselves count amongst there members indigenous Siberians and Chinese tribes.

[Azalea]

There is nothing to misinterpret. If you don't use the right words, it doesn't mean that I misinterpret it wrong. If you wright A but you mean B, then it's not the reader's fault for reading A. Your comment was crystal clear and there is not much to misinterpret.

And yeah, Mongolians and Turks are related as much as Greeks and Indians are related. Both are Indo-European, just like Turks and Mongolians are Altaic. However, Mongolians are not Turkic, don't speak a Turkic language and therefore are similar to each other as much as Iranians and Nepalese, Germans and Iranians, Iranians and Greeks, Greeks and Indians etc. etc.

Right, well. Let me be clearer in my argument then:

1) Contention A) the Turkic ethnogenesis was in eastern Asia, in or around Mongolia, possibly to the south of present-day Mongolia. Contemporary Uyghurs and Mongols are less than 10% West Asian and over 80% East Asian, which is why I used them as examples.

2) Contention B) within Central Asia, which for me is 'the stans' minus Pakistan, apart from the Indo-European groups, the only Turkic groups to have low EEA are in the far west. Conversely, in the North and East, EEA is still over 50%. The lowest EEA is amongst Pashto people but that does not really matter.

3) Contention C) contemporary Turks range in EEA from 3-16% but average around 6% (mean).

4) This means that only a small amount, to be generous let's say 1/8 but 1/12 or 1/15 is probably more accurate of the 'original' Turkic atDNA reached Anatolia. Which was my point.

5) Obviously going by EEA atDNA alone 40% of Turkish blood could be Turkmen but the Turkmens aren't 'pure Turks' in the same way British people aren't 'pure Indo-Europeans' and I'd need to see more secondary evidence like haplogroup data to firmly link them as closely as you do.

Right, well. Let me be clearer in my argument then:

1) Contention A) the Turkic ethnogenesis was in eastern Asia, in or around Mongolia, possibly to the south of present-day Mongolia. Contemporary Uyghurs and Mongols are less than 10% West Asian and over 80% East Asian, which is why I used them as examples.
Wrong. You are making two major mistakes. 1. Comparing Turks to Mongolians - again, Mongolians are NOT a Turkic ethnic group and intermixing doesn't change anything about that. Turks mixed with everyone. Comparing Turks with Mongolians is as logical as comparing Greeks with Indians.

2. Uyghurs and Mongolians are not only different ethnically, they are also completely different genetically. Seriously dude, how do you expect me to take you seriously when you don't even know the basics? Uyghurs are 40%% Mongoloid and 60% Caucasoid (might be off a percent or two), while Mongolians are 80 or more % Mongoloid.


2) Contention B) within Central Asia, which for me is 'the stans' minus Pakistan, apart from the Indo-European groups, the only Turkic groups to have low EEA are in the far west. Conversely, in the North and East, EEA is still over 50%. The lowest EEA is amongst Pashto people but that does not really matter.

3) Contention C) contemporary Turks range in EEA from 3-16% but average around 6% (mean).

4) This means that only a small amount, to be generous let's say 1/8 but 1/12 or 1/15 is probably more accurate of the 'original' Turkic atDNA reached Anatolia. Which was my point.
1. Modern Central Asians, especially Northern Turkic groups can not be taken as a proxy for the original Turks. There are several reasons for this: first of all, when you look at the Mongoloid admix in Turks and in Central Asians, you will see that the ratio North vs East Asian admix in Anatolian Turks is different from the Siberian-East Asian ratio in Central Asia. While Turkish people have more Siberian DNA, Central Asians have more East Asian DNA. The original Turkic birthplace is being rumored to be somewhere in Siberia. The Anatolian Turks left Central Asia before the Mongol dispersion. So the fact that Turkish people have more Siberian DNA than East Asian DNA only proves the fact that modern Turkic peoples in Central Asia have mixed with Mongolians.. Therefore it's wrong to assume that the more Asian = the more Turkic.

2. Then you have the fact that modern Kyrgyz and Kazakh (kipchaks) look nothing like the original Chinese description of these peoples. While the Kyrgyz and Kipchaks were said to have light eyes, light hair and a overal more Caucasoid complex, modern Kipchaks look more Mongoloid than anything. Even many Kazakh and Kyrgyz clans can trace their lines to Mongol groups.


The early Kyrgyz people, known as Yenisei Kyrgyz, have their origins in the western parts of modern-day Mongolia and first appear in written records in the Chinese annals of the Sima Qian's Records of the Grand Historian (compiled 109 BC to 91 BC), as Gekun or Jiankun (鬲昆 or 隔昆). They were described in Tang Dynasty texts as having "red hair and green eyes", while those with dark hair and eyes were said to be descendants of a Chinese general Li Ling.[17] In Chinese sources, these Kyrgyz tribes were described as fair-skinned, green- or blue-eyed and red-haired people with a mixture of European and Mongol features.

3. Siberia, Northern Central Asia have had mixed peoples living since forever.


5) Obviously going by EEA atDNA alone 40% of Turkish blood could be Turkmen but the Turkmens aren't 'pure Turks' in the same way British people aren't 'pure Indo-Europeans' and I'd need to see more secondary evidence like haplogroup data to firmly link them as closely as you do.
Obviously they are not. However, the point was that there are Turkish people in Turkey who have more Central Asian admix than 15% and are not 85% West Asian in origin. There are even Turks in Turkey with 18% Mongoloid admix. And considering the fact that the Turks who came to Anatolia were not 100% pure Mongoloid, there is no reason to think that only Mongoloid admix equals Turkic admix.

Another thing to back up my argument: the most similar ethnic group to the Turks are the Armenians. However, there two major differences between the groups, Turks carry Northern EuroAsian admix in addition to Asian admix, while Armenians lack these both. Also, there is a correlation between North Euroasian admix and Asian admix in Turkish regions. The more Asian admix there is in one part of Turkey, the more Northern European admix you will find. This clearly indicates that the Turks who came to Anatolia were not only Mongoloid but also carried Northern Euroasian admx.

Uyghurs are 40%% Mongoloid and 60% Caucasoid (might be off a percent or two), while Mongolians are 80 or more % Mongoloid.

60%? I'd stretch to 35%, ANE isn't Western. I know they're different ethnically, I just said 'they both live in the kind of area the proto-Turks might have lived in.'


1. Modern Central Asians, especially Northern Turkic groups can not be taken as a proxy for the original Turks. There are several reasons for this: first of all, when you look at the Mongoloid admix in Turks and in Central Asians, you will see that the ratio North vs East Asian admix in Anatolian Turks is different from the Siberian-East Asian ratio in Central Asian.

The Anatolian Turks left Central Asia before the Mongol dispersion. So the fact that Turkish people have more Siberian DNA than East Asian DNA only proves the fact that modern Turkic peoples have mixed with Mongolians. Which makes sense considering the Mongol empire. There is no reason to think that Central Asian people would not mix with the people around them.

Either way, the contemporary Siberian Turks are 80%+ EEA and contemporary Turks from Turkey have very low original Turkic admixture.


2. Then you have the fact that modern Kyrgyz and Kazakh (kipchaks) don't look nothing like the original Chinese description of these peoples. While the Kyrgyz and Kipchaks were said to have light eyes, light hair and overal a more Caucasoid complex, modern Kipchaks look more Mongoloid than anything. Even many Kazakh and Kyrgyz clans can trace their lines to Mongol groups.

Interesting idea, indeed the Kazakhs are supposed to trace descent from Mongol groups, but as I said, the Mongols employed Turks to a large extent.


3. Siberia, Northern Central Asia have had mixed peoples living since forever.

Not the Yakut. (https://docs.google.com/a/stud.unive.it/spreadsheets/d/1JVGdg2UsN3jYWgaoxAZu-QsAmuCaq3kT7FvqSXwUsAA/pubhtml)

And considering the fact that the Turks who came to Anatolia were not 100% pure Mongoloid, there is no reason to think that only Mongoloid admix equals Turkic admix.

18% isn't exactly sky-high. I did provide for 'stragglers' but the mean is still 6%. I know the Turks weren't 100% Mongoloid but those Turks themselves weren't pure Mongoloid.


I have another thing to back up my argument: the most similar ethnic group to Turks are the Armenians. However, there two major differences between the groups, Turks carry Northern EuroAsian admix in addition to Asian admix, while Armenians lack these both.

This clearly indicates that the Turks who came to Central Asia were not only Mongoloid but also carried Northern Euroasian admx.

Even if I accepted this, you're still more closely related to an indigenous Anatolian group than anyone else :shrug:

[Azalea]

That's the point.
This discussion is not about who they mixed with, it's about what they could have looked like genetically before they mixed.


60%? I'd stretch to 35%, ANE isn't Western.
Why don't you check your own sources? And who is saying anything about them being Western? Since when does non-Mongoloid equal Western anyway? Uyghurs are 60% Caucasoid. Not European. Whereas Mongolians are 80-85% Mongoloid.


I know they're different ethnically, I just said 'they both live in the kind of area the proto-Turks might have lived in.'
That doesn't mean anything. If these people are so different today, then what makes you think they were similar 1000 years ago?


Either way, the contemporary Siberian Turks are 80%+ EEA and contemporary Turks from Turkey have very low original Turkic admixture.
Siberian Turks (Yakuts) are said to have assimilated the local Siberian population similar to Anatolian Turks. Apparently, they went there from Northern Mongolia/South Siberia. It's complicated huh? Exactly my point.


The Yakuts originally lived around Olkhon and the region of Lake Baikal. Beginning in the 13th century they migrated to the basins of the Middle Lena, the Aldan and Vilyuy rivers under the pressure of the rising Mongols, where they mixed with other northern indigenous peoples of Russia such as the Evens and Evenks.


Interesting idea, indeed the Kazakhs are supposed to trace descent from Mongol groups, but as I said, the Mongols employed Turks to a large extent.
They do. Even today many trace their line to Mongol groups and therefore can not be taken as a proxy for the original Turks. Same goes for the Kyrgyz.


Not the Yakut. (https://docs.google.com/a/stud.unive.it/spreadsheets/d/1JVGdg2UsN3jYWgaoxAZu-QsAmuCaq3kT7FvqSXwUsAA/pubhtml)
I was talking about geographical regions and yeah, Siberia is another region where many different peoples used to live. Have you seen this article?

http://siberiantimes.com/science/casestudy/news/24000-year-old-boy-from-lake-baikal-is-scientific-sensation/


New DNA findings, if confirmed, have stunning implications for our understanding of both pre-historic Siberians - and native Americans. They would suggest that, contrary to previous understanding, some indigenous populations are - in fact - European or West Asiatic in origin

And the funny thing is, South Siberia, Baikal and the Yenisei region is exactly the region where most Turkologists think the original Turkic homeland lies.


18% isn't exactly sky-high. I did provide for 'stragglers' but the mean is still 6%. I know the Turks weren't 100% Mongoloid but those Turks themselves weren't pure Mongoloid.
18% is actually high if you consider the fact that the original Turks were not 100% Mongoloid. 18% could equal up to 50% Central Asian ancestry. And no, I am not claiming that this is the average for entire Turkey. We were talking about certain regions but then you came and and started saying stuff about it not being possible to be less than 85% West Asian blablabla.


Even if I accepted this, you're still more closely related to an indigenous Anatolian group than anyone else :shrug:

This was never up for discussion.

[Longbowman]

This discussion is not about who they mixed with, it's about what they could have looked like genetically before they mixed.

We'll probably never know for sure, but it doesn't seem likely they'd have been less than 50-60% EEA, considering the Tarim Basin folk will have mixed with IE folk.


Why don't you check your own sources? And who is saying anything about them being Western? Since when does non-Mongoloid equal Western anyway? Uyghurs are 60% Caucasoid. Not European. Whereas Mongolians are 80-85% Mongoloid.

Good point.


That doesn't mean anything. If these people are so different today, then what makes you think they were similar 1000 years ago?

History? They had to mix sometime. Even you don't think the Turkmen came to Turkey and displaced everyone, so why do you think Turkmenistan is different?

You can't use Mal'ta boy as a proxy for proto-Turks because he clearly wasn't.

[Azalea]

I am not using any group as a proxy for the original Turks. That boy is too old to belong to any language group anyway. The point I am trying to make is that South Siberia, Mongolia and Central Asia in general have a very complex history and are/were populated by mixed people even 24000 years ago. There is absolutely no reason to think that Turks 2000 years ago were either pure Mongoloid or Caucasoid for that matter when there are even remains found of mixed people from 24000 ago.

All the evidence we have from Turks 2000 years ago point out that Turks were a mixed group ever since they appeared in history.

[Longbowman]

Fair enough. Regardless I doubt 'original' Turkic blood in Turks is on average much higher than 15%, even if I accepted 40% EEA as a plausible percentage.

Pretty inaccurate for me. I noticed when it's wrong, it turns you more on the dark side :dev3


edit: ok except Lawalye, but Belgian bottleneck

[Annie999]

It was inaccurate for me. My results were green/hazel but my eyes are actually brown.

All of which is interpreted as:

My actual eye colour:

The one thing it did get right was the grey outer rim. It's very pronounced on me. It's difficult to get a good picture of eyes when it's not daylight, so the picture doesn't show the brown around the pupil in any detail. You can just see hints of it if you look closely.
