Dear Mortimer,
Thank you for the prompt reply. The emojis look amusing by the way. A camel for the Middle East and an Iron cross for western Europe.
Cheers,

Oy vey, the best way to stop antisemitism is to make everyone a jew.
LOL
Thanks for sharing your results. I also did the test and am waiting for results because this paragraph they wrote makes sense to me:
At least they are admitting that certain ancestries such as African or Asian are underestimated because they are part of the European or Middle Eastern references . Other companies don’t even advertise it.Quote:
These percentages should not be interpreted as direct belonging to the populations used as references, since they only represent how much of your genome resembles the populations used in the analysis and does not imply that you have phenotypes or cultural characteristics of them. It is also possible that certain ancestries are underestimated given the recent relationship that exists between some of the populations of the reference panel. For example, the Jewish population has contributions from European populations and it is possible that the Jewish component is assigned as European.
I noticed you got 14% Indian. I doubt that even us Kurds or Iranians would get this much but I guess I’ll find out in a day or two. I’m guessing Mine will be mostly Middle East with some East European and Indian
There is a Roma from Turkey on Apricity. His nickname is Chris0009. He calls himself Balkan-Ottoman Romani. He is 30% Indian. The same as a European Balkan Romani. He might have 5% more turkish then Balkan Romani though. But he is very similar to a Balkan Romani. The average for a Roma from Balkan is 30-50% Indian. Im at 15% because Im 45% Slavic (mostly serbian with a whiff of russian).
This one of them test going be 100% Eastern Europe for me, they need to develop their reference dataset
