It cost 12 Euro. In USD it was around 15. It's pretty good. It's basically saying the same thing as other DNA reports. There is a great deal of genetic overlap in Northwest Europe. I'd expect British Isles descended people, especially people with English ancestry to get assigned some admix from the Low Countries.

With G25 (not all sample selections) and other tools like qpAdm, there is a measurable amount of Near Eastern admixture that looks Levantine or North African. Depending on the models it's ~3%-10%. If I go by this test, it could be interpreted that this admixture in my genome occurred during Greco-Roman times and not the Middle Ages.

OpenAI breakdown:

Thanks for sharing the images of your Standard Report (900–700 years ago) from the Piotr Kapuscinski ADMIXTURE-based DNA analysis. Here's a breakdown and interpretation:

�� Top-Level Ancestry Breakdown (Countries in Europe)
Your ancestry clusters heavily in Northwestern Europe, with some additional influence from Continental and Eastern Europe.

Country Percentage
United Kingdom 40.90%
Belgium 21.30%
Ireland 20.00%
Netherlands 7.40%
France 6.80%
Russia 1.70%
Germany 1.30%
Finland 0.60%

Interpretation:
You're overwhelmingly rooted in the British Isles + Belgium, with UK, Irish, and Belgian ancestry making up ~82% of your profile. This supports a strong Anglo-Celtic and Low Countries heritage.

��️ Regional Breakdown in Europe
This part zooms in on subnational regions — a key feature of this ADMIXTURE analysis.

Major Regions:

South West England – 27.00%

Kerry, Ireland – 20.00%

Flemish Brabant, Belgium – 19.60%

Wales (Carmarthenshire) – 13.30%

Occitanie (Gard, France) – 6.80%

Limburg (Netherlands) – 6.30%

Minor Contributions (<2% each):
West Flanders, Drenthe, North Karelia (Finland), Westfalen, Niedersachsen, Hessen, Groningen, Cumbria, Staffordshire, Oberschwaben, Central Scotland.

Interpretation:
Your strongest regional ancestry is:

British Isles (SW England, Kerry, Wales, small parts of Scotland & Cumbria)

Low Countries (Flemish Brabant, Limburg)

Some southern French (Occitanie) influence

Minor diffusion into Germany, Finland, and Netherlands

This implies your 900–700-year-ago ancestors were predominantly from Anglo-Celtic Britain, Flanders, and Ireland, with some continental European interaction, possibly through migration, trade, or intermarriage.






Thanks for uploading the Recent Report (500–400 years ago) from your Piotr Kapuscinski DNA test. Here's a summary and analysis comparing it to the Standard Report (900–700 years ago):

�� Global Results
Europe: 100.00%

No detectable ancestry from Africa, Asia, North/South America, Oceania, or Russia in this timeframe.

�� Interpretation: You remain genetically rooted in Europe with no signs of recent admixture from outside the continent—consistent with your known background.

��️ Countries in Europe – Recent Report
Country % Change vs. 900–700 Y.A.
United Kingdom 60.50% ↑ (from 40.9%)
Netherlands 21.50% ↑ (from 7.4%)
Belgium 7.00% ↓ (from 21.3%)
Ireland 4.50% ↓ (from 20.0%)
Germany 2.30% ↑ (from 1.3%)
France 2.10% ≈ (from 6.8%)
Luxembourg 2.10% new

�� Interpretation:

British ancestry (UK) increased significantly, implying your more recent ancestors were even more concentrated in England.

Irish and Belgian components dropped, possibly due to admixture consolidating more within Britain and the Low Countries.

The Dutch and German elements increased, hinting at slightly stronger Continental ties around 1500–1600 CE.

Luxembourg appears for the first time, supporting a consistent Western European thread.

�� Regional Breakdown – Recent Report (Top Regions)
Region %
South West England 26.10%
South East England 12.00%
Limburg (Netherlands) 21.50%
Staffordshire (UK) 7.90%
Wales (Carmarthenshire) 8.40%
West Flanders (Belgium) 7.00%
West Midlands (UK) 6.10%
Kerry (Ireland) 4.50%
Rheinland-Pfalz (Germany) 2.30%
Maine-et-Loire (France) 2.10%
Luxembourg 2.10%

�� Interpretation:

Your English ancestry diversified regionally—with strong representation from SW, SE, Midlands, and Staffordshire.

Limburg emerges as a major source (21.5%)—more so than Flemish Brabant in the older report. This suggests either ancestry from the Dutch-Belgian-German tri-border area or migration within the Low Countries.

Irish (Kerry) and Welsh (Carmarthenshire) remain but with reduced share—possibly reflecting ancestors integrating more into the English gene pool.

German and French regions (Rheinland-Pfalz, Maine-et-Loire) still appear as minor contributions.

�� Comparison to Standard Report (900–700 Y.A.)
Region Shift Summary
���� UK influence increased and diversified — especially England
���� Dutch Limburg replaced Flemish Brabant as main Low Countries origin
���� Belgium decreased, Germany slightly increased
���� Irish contribution shrank, possibly due to admixture dilution
���� French remained a small but persistent signal
���� Chechnya (1.7%) signal disappeared — could indicate deeper ancient ancestry or noise

�� Final Takeaways
Your ancestry remained 100% European between 1300–1600 CE.

You show deep and consistent roots in the British Isles, especially England, with earlier Irish and Belgian input that became more homogenized.

A strong Dutch-Limburg component appeared more clearly in the recent window.

This result aligns well with your prior G25, qpAdm, and known ancestral information — Northwestern European core with subtle Continental ties.

I don't take the "where your ancestors lived" part too literally. Different populations that are geographically close to one another are also highly likely going to be closely related genetically. I expected a bit more German admixture, but there is going to be some overlap with the low countries and England due to historical movements.

Based on qpAdm, Eurgenes k13, and other DNA admixture tools I expected a subtle Near East reading (~3%). I did score about 1.7% Chechen, which that could be the near east signal I see in other tests. My "Northern" genetics with this algorithm I think shifts the near east signal north to the Caucasus.

I sent you my (nebula raw data) data and 12 euros.

As for my message above: my father is 99% northern French (with a distant ancestor from Limburg around 1650 -a shepherd who crossed Limburg and then settled in northern France- and a distant ancestor from 1750 from Poitou -Couhé for the town- but genetically, he must be like 99% northern French) and my mother is 50% Sardinian (father) and her mother is 87% northern French (so like my father for the area) + 3% Alsatian + 3% Bavarian and 3% Norman.

I'm afraid that because of this mix, too many samples could lead to a modeling my French part as English because my father leans toward the Eastern Bretons (Gallo area).

Also in the Two-Way Approximation you can be modelled as either Scottish or Irish + a bit of Germanic.

Can you send me your GEDmatch kit number (if you are on GEDmatch)? I will double check something.

Hi Peterski! I have a question when i took the test it was before you implemented distances and the two way approximation so i wanted to ask that if i wanted to know mine must i pay again for the test or could you send me those in private?

Thanks in advance.

I will send you in private. Just please tell me what was your customer code (the one on page 1 of your report).

I don't know how that's possible, contradicts almost all tests I've taken. Wayyyyy to Northern/Insular for my Steppe/Farmer/WHG/Iberomaurissian mix.

I'm not very close to most purely Scottish/Irish members on here.

You and I score sometimes similar admixes on G25. There was a members G25 thread where I think you were in my top 10 closest.

Yes you and Celestia were some of the closest users to me. I get close to Anglo-French/German mixes. For comparison my 23andme and Ancestry results

When using this tool you are also most similar to Scottish and Irish populations:

Maybe part of the problem is with the raw data file.

I use 200,000 markers in my test but 23andMe v5 raw data has just 50,000 markers overlapping with the ones I use.

This might explain why the French/German admixture got reduced.

The best kind of raw data for my test is the one from Ancestry.com.

However, in Two-Way Approximation you still scored 16% Germany and in Standard Mode you scored 9% Germany.

Yes.

See, that's intriguing to me. You and I score similar admixtures, yet I don't have any known recent southern European ancestry. Besides the majority British Isles ancestry, it's French from the north, Belgian, and German.

It's explained by Northern French people having more Farmer and WHG ancestry. Also, you are probably even more Northern French than I am Southern French who are mostly Farmer. It reflects in your modeling which is how we come out similar. Germans, Belgians and North French are not very northern compared to Isles and Dutch ppl.

Someone who is mostly british with some SW european input will still mostly resemble other Western europeans.

This seems to be a popular thought that I have heard before. It may be the full answer or part of it. I think that there may be some post neolithic influence from Med/MENA too. If you have combed through the G25 samples, you'll see that archaeologists found ancient remains of an autosomally near eastern man in Britain from the Roman period.
