Just a dumb little exercise- where do you plot vs ancestry? Are you an outlier at all (if primarily descended from mainly or totally from one ethnic group) or if more mixed, does your plotting make logical sense? As a primarily NW/NE Euro Amerimutt with primarily German, Irish, Danish and Polish descent (and 1/32 AJ as well) I plot basically somewhere between East Germans-Austrians-Czechs which is not so surprising.

On PCA I plot closer to Danes and Norwegians, with English right behind. I’m English by ancestry, mostly from SE England (Kent, Sussex, Norfolk), so it makes sense given that there's a higher Germanic/North Sea input within those regions. It seems to make sense overall.

Me and my parents. Just my father is fully representative of his origin, but to be fair we have no real "Álava" samples, just "Basque speakers from Álava"taken from a single 2500 people Basque speakers valley that is just a 2% of the native population of this province. The real Álava province average would probably be more similar to Burgos North or Western Biscay people. Anyway here I used just Basque Spanish samples, not Basque Araba references.

I think that the results, if interpreted correctly, represent reality in an acceptable way .

On PCA I plot closer to Danes and Norwegians, with English right behind. I’m English by ancestry, mostly from SE England (Kent, Sussex, Norfolk), so it makes sense given that there's a higher Germanic/North Sea input within those regions. It seems to make sense overall.

Where is that particular PCA from? I have used the vahaduo one and it’s not very good for visibility.

I simply plot with Turkish maybe a bit leaning to Azerbaijan.

Me and my parents. Just my father is fully representative of his origin, but to be fair we have no real "Álava" samples, just "Basque speakers from Álava"taken from a single 2500 people Basque speakers valley that is just a 2% of the native population of this province. The real Álava province average would probably be more similar to Burgos North or Western Biscay people. Anyway here I used just Basque Spanish samples, not Basque Araba references.

Because I have lower Balto-Slav paired with a Southern part that is high Paleo-Balkan/low West Asian

I'm assuming more genetically Slovak if this is the case but I'm wondering why G25 thinks I'm West Ukrainian. Like what is so eastern about my heritage?

These calculations require a lot of interpretation sometimes. Per the one I posted a little bit ago, it has me closer to the Croatian average than to Danes:dunno:

Edit: Now that I think more about it, Croats are genetically rather central euro shifted, so it makes sense.

Ancestry:
Mainly from Colonial Portuguese ancestors; family report about a "german" ancestor; I heard something about "Italians", but I never investigated.
Black African and Amerindian were presumed "because I am Brazilian", but in reality I'm zero amerindian.

Gentic test: Iberian (including Spain); Northeastern European; Ashkenazi; African (Maghrebians and SSA).
Italians are a genetical group on MyHeritage.

Plot: I'm between south of France and Slovenia, so, genetically alpine.

I stay more precisely in the northeast of Italy.

I had AndreiDNA plot me with his PCA tool

146033

OpenAI Interpretation(it references f2, f3, and f4 statistics which Andrei did for me, but I'll share in another thread):

This PCA is well-constructed and, importantly, it is telling the same story as your f2, f4, and qpAdm results, just in geometric form. I’ll walk through it systematically and keep the interpretation strictly population-genetic.

1. How to read this PCA (what the axes mean)

Although the exact loadings aren’t shown, the structure is textbook for West Eurasia:

PC1 (x-axis)
Primarily tracks a north–south / steppe–Mediterranean cline

Left = more Steppe / WHG

Right = more ANF / CHG / eastern Mediterranean

PC2 (y-axis)
Separates western vs eastern/southeastern structure

Higher = western Mediterranean / Iberian

Lower = eastern / Balkan / Near Eastern influences

This matches where Basques, Celtiberians, Thracians, Minoans, and Hittites fall.

2. Your exact position (the key point)

Gannicus plots here:

Slightly right of Durotriges (Brittonic IA)

Slightly right of Nordic Bronze Age

Left of Continental Celts

Far left of Mediterranean IA groups

Clearly separated from Baltic IA

This means:

You are firmly Northwest European

But not maximally northern-shifted

You carry a modest southern/continental pull

This is exactly what your f4 tests showed when Denmark_IA was used as the comparator.

3. Why each nearby population matters
A. Durotriges (Brittonic Iron Age)

You are very close to them.

This indicates:

Strong Insular / NW European base

Celtic continuity rather than Scandinavian bias

This explains why:

f4 vs Scotland_EIA ≈ symmetric

You do not show excess Celtiberian shift vs Scotland

B. Nordic Bronze Age

You are close but slightly offset toward the south.

This matches:

f4(Gannicus, Denmark_IA; southern refs) being positive

Your qpAdm ANF + CHG elevation

You are not Scandinavian-like, but you overlap the broader North Sea zone.

C. Continental Celts & Celtiberians

You sit between:

Insular Celts (Durotriges)

Continental Celts

Celtiberians (but clearly not Iberian)

This triangulates perfectly with:

f4 showing Celtiberian shift vs Denmark_IA

No Celtiberian shift vs Scotland_EIA

In other words:

You share continental Celtic drift, not Iberian ancestry.

D. Thracians, Minoans, Hittites

These form a southern arc well away from you.

You are:

Closest to Thracians among these

Still clearly distinct

This matches:

Weak/moderate Thracian f4 signal vs Denmark_IA

No strong Balkan displacement overall

E. Baltic IA (Lithuania_IA)

This is very far from you.

This is critical:

Confirms you do not have Baltic/Uralic pull

Explains why Finns, Balts, Saami are far in f2

Reinforces your purely NW/continental European profile

4. Why this PCA validates your earlier statistics
Method What it said PCA confirmation
f2 Closest to English/French You sit in NW Europe
f4 Southern shift vs Denmark_IA You are south of Nordic BA
f4 Symmetric vs Scotland_EIA You overlap Brittonic IA
qpAdm Elevated ANF + CHG You shift toward continental Celts
PCA Intermediate NW–continental Exactly this position

No contradictions anywhere.

I plot in Tuscany and that makes sense. Half is north italian and then some Lebanese, Spanish, Basque, French if you mix everything it makes sense it plots in central Italy.

I had AndreiDNA plot me with his PCA tool

146033

OpenAI Interpretation(it references f2, f3, and f4 statistics which Andrei did for me, but I'll share in another thread):

This PCA is well-constructed and, importantly, it is telling the same story as your f2, f4, and qpAdm results, just in geometric form. I’ll walk through it systematically and keep the interpretation strictly population-genetic.

1. How to read this PCA (what the axes mean)

Although the exact loadings aren’t shown, the structure is textbook for West Eurasia:

PC1 (x-axis)
Primarily tracks a north–south / steppe–Mediterranean cline

Left = more Steppe / WHG

Right = more ANF / CHG / eastern Mediterranean

PC2 (y-axis)
Separates western vs eastern/southeastern structure

Higher = western Mediterranean / Iberian

Lower = eastern / Balkan / Near Eastern influences

This matches where Basques, Celtiberians, Thracians, Minoans, and Hittites fall.

2. Your exact position (the key point)

Gannicus plots here:

Slightly right of Durotriges (Brittonic IA)

Slightly right of Nordic Bronze Age

Left of Continental Celts

Far left of Mediterranean IA groups

Clearly separated from Baltic IA

This means:

You are firmly Northwest European

But not maximally northern-shifted

You carry a modest southern/continental pull

This is exactly what your f4 tests showed when Denmark_IA was used as the comparator.

3. Why each nearby population matters
A. Durotriges (Brittonic Iron Age)

You are very close to them.

This indicates:

Strong Insular / NW European base

Celtic continuity rather than Scandinavian bias

This explains why:

f4 vs Scotland_EIA ≈ symmetric

You do not show excess Celtiberian shift vs Scotland

B. Nordic Bronze Age

You are close but slightly offset toward the south.

This matches:

f4(Gannicus, Denmark_IA; southern refs) being positive

Your qpAdm ANF + CHG elevation

You are not Scandinavian-like, but you overlap the broader North Sea zone.

C. Continental Celts & Celtiberians

You sit between:

Insular Celts (Durotriges)

Continental Celts

Celtiberians (but clearly not Iberian)

This triangulates perfectly with:

f4 showing Celtiberian shift vs Denmark_IA

No Celtiberian shift vs Scotland_EIA

In other words:

You share continental Celtic drift, not Iberian ancestry.

D. Thracians, Minoans, Hittites

These form a southern arc well away from you.

You are:

Closest to Thracians among these

Still clearly distinct

This matches:

Weak/moderate Thracian f4 signal vs Denmark_IA

No strong Balkan displacement overall

E. Baltic IA (Lithuania_IA)

This is very far from you.

This is critical:

Confirms you do not have Baltic/Uralic pull

Explains why Finns, Balts, Saami are far in f2

Reinforces your purely NW/continental European profile

4. Why this PCA validates your earlier statistics
Method What it said PCA confirmation
f2 Closest to English/French You sit in NW Europe
f4 Southern shift vs Denmark_IA You are south of Nordic BA
f4 Symmetric vs Scotland_EIA You overlap Brittonic IA
qpAdm Elevated ANF + CHG You shift toward continental Celts
PCA Intermediate NW–continental Exactly this position

No contradictions anywhere.
