I thought im part serb part roma and 1/16 russian from my great great grandfather.

So what new did I learned or think to have learned?

Im part Roma (I score 16.8% Southasian)
Im part Russian (I have Russia on my Dashboard List of Countries of Ancestry).

But what new did I learned? I think i learned im not part serb but part Greek? I dont score evaluated Eastern and Northern Euro and I dont have matches from Serbia?

Can this be translated correctly from my Results?

I dont know. I just ask a Question




Can this be translated correctly from my Results?



Also am I such a bad Person? Would it be disaster for Turks?

"Countries of ancestry" comes from relative finder.. it doesn't actually reflect your ancestry necessarily.

but isnt it surprising i dont have serbia in my list at all?
also i dont have evaluated eastern and northern european like yugoslavs on ancestry composition?

What is your top match on ancestry finder? dont you have italy/Portugal at all? i think it is surprising i dont have serbia at all. also i dont have evaluated eastern and northern european components on ancestry composition. what do you think of my ancestry composition?

You shouldn't take these things so seriously. The results are vague. Your national identity is also shaped via culture and customs of the country you grew up in.
You can't put yourself in a country whose language you speak not a word of, whose traditions you are unfamiliar with, and which you've never set foot in, just because a DNA test "suggests" you might have ancestry from there. It's like me taking the test and finding a remote Russian ancestry (via a distant relative in the past) and all of the sudden claiming I am Russian.

Even if you have a Greek ancestor some generations ago that doesn't make you Greek. :) I am not saying this out of spite. I have an English grandfather myself and I never claim to be English because I have not been brought up with this culture nor do I have ties to their land. And having a grandfather is much more tangible than a vague clue from a DNA test. :wink

I get your Point. I dont Claim to be Greek. But I think im Romanian/Greek and Slavicised. Those two are my top matches. Looks as if they make a good part of my ancestry. I just lack the evaluated eastern and northern european to be southslav. Im slavicised but not part southslav. Im southerneuropean to a good degree genetically (it seems)

edit: also my ydna is E1b1ba2 which is mediterannean and not southslavic (southslavic is I1)

I've been guessed as Russian before. Oddly enough my grandfather's family lived in Odessa (part of the Greek merchant community) so it's not an entirely remote possibility even though no known marriage with a local was known.

So what is this "temper" you're talking about? :D

It must be a word which combines "naughty", "mad" (in a positive meaning) and "hilarious" all at the same time.

E1b1b haplogroup is north african, balkan and middle eastern haplogroup. This is not Semitic or Arabic haplogroup - E1b1b people are special race of people, the same as Slavs, Nordid, or Celtic. This haplogropu is related with Berbers in north Africa but also they are natives in the Balkans because they live here 6000 years i think -this is neolitic haplogroup.

The reason whay geneticians didn't find relation with Serbia is because geneticians do genetic testing only in Belgrade not in the southern part of Serbia.

Loša mi je engleska gramatika. Ja sam čitala da su u Srbiji radili genetsko istraživanje samo na ljudima iz Beograda, a nisu radili na ljudima iz južne Srbije,a po meni u južnoj Srbiji žive puno tamnoputiji ljudi nego u Beogradu. Tako su genetičari otkrili kod Srba anatolijske gene -ti ljudi su prije testiranja rekli da potječu iz "starih srpskih porodica", od srpskih popova, a kod genetskih rezultata im se otkrilo da imaju anatolijske gene.

IM, without offense, you do look a bit like a gypsy anyway, so that educated guess could be correct as for some influence somewhere in the woodpile/haystack.

As for the other countries being listed, there was much movement between Slavic countries in times when the languages were still mutually intelligible, clustering with Bulgaria and Russia at the same time does not mean you're not a Serb. ;)

Im part Roma (I score 16.8% Southasian)

i have roma ancestry on both sides of the family but also slavic ancestry. my mum is 1/8 russian and my dad is three quarter serb. his dad was half serb, his grandafther was serb and his mum was serb. being genetically mixed is not the same as being ethnically mixed, most roma derrive their genetical ancestry from europe,mideast and southasia from long ago, but i have recent non-roma ancestry which makes not only genetically mixed but also ethnically mixed (mixes of identities) and my parents are not both cultural romas.

I learned that I paternally belong to the continuity of the Corded Ware population, that felt into a genepool of a slavic populations that obviously got formed later.

Maternally, I descend from a Paleolithic or Mesolithic hunters-gatherers. That's pretty amazing. I have expected to be a plain "H" or something :)

I don't know a thing about my autosomal genetics. However, I think I would fall among the Germans basing on my ancestry (German-influenced West Slavic + Germanic should genetically give a German ,logically).
