2% is not that much considering my family has been in South Africa for around 350 years, 13 generations. Some admixture took place in the first 50 years of early settlement and was exaggerated through a bottleneck effect (founder effect) - which means I could have a single African ancestor through several lines of my family.

Very strange map. Finns have less Siberian components than the Russians? This seriously? :rolleyes:

Well the Siberians would have to go through northern Russia to get to Finland so the map does make sense.

Did you post the wrong pics? That has nothing to do with Siberian influence.

EDIT: Here's the low-down from them professional geneticists:

Yes. The pics are PCA plots with a few populations. The link shows an IBS comparison with Vologda Russians, with East Finns being the closest. Nothing about Siberian affinity.

The Vologda Russians have greater similarity with East Eurasian populations than Finns, which is what we usually see.
