Levantine Arabs or Iranians, which one is genetically more European on average?

[princeton90]

Question is in the title.

[Leto]

Neither have genuine European ancestry. If you mean Steppe, I'd say Iranians.

[FinalFlash]

Steppe=Iranians

EEF= Levantines

[Radimir]

Levantine Arabs.

[reboun]

Iranians have more North European admixture, Levantine Arabs have more South European admixture. Overall, Levantine Arabs have more North European + South European admixture than Iranians.

Defining European as EEF+Yamnaya+WHG on G25 (using Davidski standard calculator with CHG instead of Kura Axes and only Barcin N)

Lebanese_Christian_Greek_Orthodox: 27.7
Syrian: 23.2
Iranian_Fars: 34.4
Iranian_Zoroastrian: 37.8

I'm not sure but I suppose this "EEF" among levantines directly came from anatolia logically therefore it's "local" ancestry but also shared ancestry with europeans

True most of it is native (even Iran CHL is between 15-20% EEF) but generally it is considered European component

It is interesting, because Levantines usually plot closer to South European cluster than Iranians do.

Levantines plot the closest to Europe of all non-Europeans.

I guess Gedrosia and some type of South Asian admix makes Iranians plot farther, also Levant traces in South Europe

[Dr_Maul]

double

[Kyp]

Lebanese are closer to South Europeans in general, but Iranians have more North-Euro like admixture

Are Yamnaya fully European? AFAIK, they have significant amount of Caucasus/Gedrosia.

[Dr_Maul]

They are roughly half Caucasus/Gedrosia but if you say they aren't European you are implying NW Euros are 20% not european, which isn't really right tbh.

[Flashball]

Lebanese and Syrians have more Levant_PPNB that "Barcin"
