I live in Thessaloniki since my childhood. I didn't mention that because many people don't want to discuss things when they here about rosopontians. :) My DNA results from MyHeritage was 52.5 west Asia 46.3 Greek 1.2 Ashkenazi.

Okay, that makes sense, but MyHeritage didn't detect any East European, Balkan or Baltic? How many of your matches on MyHeritage don't appear to be Greek?

Great grandma so maybe undetected? Is that possible?

Well, that wasn't too hard was it.

I think MyHeritage is pretty trash at predicting admixture, it gives me 30% Sephardic Jew for example. :icon_rolleyes: If he has full Russian matches that are not extremely distant that would be enough proof of that kind of ancestry.

His Greek % is very high. His MyHeritage results make sense in comparison to his GEDMatch but it's not adding up to the reported known ancestry now.
