Who is more Levantine? Yemeni, Georgian or Persian Jew?

Can anyone model it the same way you did with the Ashkenazis in Qapdm? I'd be curious to know.
I think the ones who have the most are the Persians, but I'm not sure about that.

I’m away from my computer and I’ll try some models tonight. Someone may beat me to it. It’s going to be tricky because all three are already near eastern to begin with . If I were a gambling man I’d say that Yemeni Jews are probably going to score the most ancient Levantine. Out of the three, Yemenis probably have the highest overall Natufian admixture giving them the edge. Although, by the Bronze Age there was a notable amount of Anatolian and CHG/Iran Neolithic in the Levant. So we will have to test to find out. I’m still thinking Yemenis though.
