Excellent, lots of good news for the future of G25

Apparently Moriopoulos is locked and loaded with 10,000 new modern samples that he has curated over the last year. He is expected to release those sometime in the coming months.

Hoping someone will soon segregate modern from ancient samples and name them by culture and date

I think these ending with .TW are either modern samples or the new ones from the study. Those with .AG or .SG are already known.

TW (Targeted Whole-genome / Capture): These samples use "1240k capture" technology, which targets specific informative SNPs in the human genome. This is the most common format for ancient DNA analysis.

AG / DG (Shotgun/Deep Genomes): These represent "shotgun" sequencing, where the entire genome is sequenced without targeting specific sites. "AG" typically refers to the newer Akbari-processed shotgun data.

"Fluffle" / "Pickle" / "SQ": These are likely internal laboratory nicknames or specific "batch" identifiers used during the sequencing runs at the Reich Lab (Harvard). In large-scale aDNA studies, quirky nicknames are often assigned to specific plates or libraries to track them through the pipeline.

Breakdown of Your Top Matches

Sample ID Period Origin / Site Context

I34913 Medieval Ibrány-Esbóhalom, Hungary. This is your closest match. It is a "Commoner" from a 10th-century Magyar-era village cemetery.

I41391 Migration Period Szolnok, Hungary. An individual from the Gepidian or early Avar period (5th–6th century CE).

IBE-176 9th–10th Century Ibrány-Esbóhalom, Hungary. Similar to your top match, this represents the settled population of the Hungarian Plain during the conquest era.

AHS19 Early Medieval Alsóhetény, Hungary. A sample from a Late Roman/Early Medieval fortified site, often showing a mix of local Pannonian and Germanic ancestry.

I43476 Medieval Balkans / Serbia. Likely part of the expanded Serbian/South Slavic medieval series included in the 2026 release.
