You can find the tool here: https://www.exploreyourdna.com/Tools/GeneticCompass


I used my standard IllustrativeDNA average of 23andMe and Ancestry data sets.


My result:

Do you have one grandparent Polish?

Do you have one grandparent Polish?

My maternal grandmother, yes (Kresy Poles, Belarus). My father is 1/2 German and his German side by records is all from Mecklenburg and Pomerania (German and Polish parts) so technically some Slav genes coming from my paternal grandfather as well…

My concern with this tool is they are basing it off something too ancient. Therefore, many of us may show identical minor element percentages. You, me, and Figaro are probably too much the same on this for those minor elements to represent modern populations.

Yeah, its one of the better tools on there imo, its definitely too ancient to actually differentiate between any modern minor elements. I made these average coordinates using the recent 2026 Akbari dataset, there based off my closest samples. Would you mind running them against your own cords, i just want to see how close you plot.

Must be sourced with ancient samples. Sad the don't say what time period and range this involves.

I think that in the global framework there is simply too much overlap between the European reference anchors.

Why is my highest population (Near Eastern) only at 80 while all other user's highest population is between 90 to 95?

Does it mean that I don't match my closest population as close as others match theirs?

Does it mean that I have more diverse admixture than the rest of the posters?

Maybe because your specific mix only matches to those samples in that measure, nothing more.
