Mycenaeans and Levantines were quite different genetically, why would anyone lump them together?

The source is Greco-Anatolian

[gixajo]

Myceneans, Anatolian, Levantine & Assyrian ancestry from Bronze Age and/or Iron Age.

Mycenaeans and Levantines were quite different genetically, why would anyone lump them together?

Because both are originally cultures from the Eastern Mediterranean.

[Dušan]

Northern Romania and Moldova are in pair with Serbs and Bosniaks in autosomal genetics, so it should be more for them.

I isolated all 81 East Med segments I have using K36 "stepped segments" table on Admixture Studio and made a set of Ethnospecifc K36 coordinates to see where they show my East Med genes coming from.

The raw K36 ethnospecific for all 81 segments gives me:

Target: SC_EastMed_K36_Mrg_full_81seg
Distance: 24.3165% / 24.31647810 | ADC: 2x RC
53.0 German_North_Moravia
47.0 Greek_Crete


Target: SC_EastMed_K36_Mrg_full_81seg
Distance: 14.0357% / 14.03573905
42.8 German_Frisian
42.1 Druze
8.7 Finnish_Northeast
5.7 Basque_Spain
0.7 Brahui


I did the same with K13:

Target: SC_EastMed_K13_top13seg_370cM_4.3%DNA
Distance: 28.8095% / 28.80950711 | ADC: 2x RC
100.0 Jew_Ashkenazi

Target: SC_EastMed_K13_top13seg_370cM_4.3%DNA
Distance: 26.0685% / 26.06848367
39.0 Austrian_Burgenland
30.3 Lebanese_Druze
24.3 Jew_Yemen
6.4 Polish_Podlaskie


Try this method for yourselves.
