I keep scoring around 1/4 North African groups. Why is this?

[Maleficent]

It's because you're half-Ashkenazi, an ethnic group that intermixed with North Africans at some point in history. Ashkenazi and half-Ashkenazi will have more Northwest African component than your average, regular European.

This is mine:

Europe 48.27%
NW_Africa 9.48%
SW_Asia 41.01%
E_Africa -
S_Africa 0.38%
Mbuti -
W_Africa -
Biaka 0.18%
San 0.68%

[Smeagol]

The average Ashkenazi only has 4% North African.
