Alnortedelsur Ancestry DNA Results are Finally Here

[Dominicanese]

I suspect that clonials were a bit more mena than todays iberians, or at least maney were jews/morisco. Alnorte has very small colonial iberian imput, hes 1/4 italian instead. 50% iberian mother + 1/4 Italian = 75% to 87 = 12% only.

it seems that way yeah, colonials likely were more mena

i remember barbaro told me there were many towns that became almost empty due to bandolerismo in andaluzia and took on the ocean for inbound to the americas via cadiz and that these were more true spaniards, but then they had to send many spaniards from the north including non spaniard euros to re populate these areas and this was during the 1500s and possibly a little later

Read this, I know you can read Spanish. It is about the repopulations of North Andalusia with people from Germany, Switzerland and Flanders.

How, where, when and why?

How, where, when and why?

Colonization of Sierra Morena was a project implemented by Pablo de Olavide, whereby some six thousand European colonists settled in an area located on the southern slope of the Sierra Morena, in Spain, in the current provinces of Jaén, Córdoba and Seville. Colonization, financed by the state, was intended to encourage agriculture and industry in an unpopulated area threatened by banditry.

How: attracting Central European Catholic families by offering them lands exempt from taxes, they were offered to Spain by the Bavarian official Johann Kaspar Thürriegel https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann...h%C3%BCrriegel

The bleak Sierra Morena mountains were also notorious in former times for being a haunt of bandits and highwaymen.
The Nuevas Poblaciones de Andalucía y Sierra Morena administrative division was started in 1767 during the reign of Charles III of Spain in order to populate the mountainous zone.As a consequence the area around La Carolina was settled with farmers that included German, Swiss and Flemish families. One of the goals of the project was to have safe stopover points for carriages in the desolate region that would be within reasonable distance from each other.

yupp, just as i suspected

makes alot of sense, we could be true andaluzians here in the new world and we dont even know it, but amazingly this was all just for safely and protection for their families by the idiots gunning down and killing innocent ppl in the hills and roads of the back country, fucking mamaguevasos de mierda eso bandidos, basta a todo esos charlatanes

they left their homes for this shit hole side of the world where you would likely die before 60 from dengue, malaria, colera, yaws, and hookworms, etc... and if not that then from lethal weaponry, slave revolts, and piracy

and i bet your ass that half of em didnt even make it across the ocean

Would you have preferred to have higher euro results?

Would you have preferred to have higher euro results?

I'm OK with who I am.

[Decius]

I'm OK with what I am.

You're mostly euro anyway do you think you're 23andme results are more accurate when it comes to the euro amount or you're ancestry results?

I think (though I might be wrong, because I'm not an expert) that Ancestry DNA is interpreting some of my Neolithic Euro ancestry as "West Asian" so yeah, I think that my Euro estimate from 23AndMe is more accurate.

I also find very interesting my results from Ancestry DNA, though.

Maybe it could be somewere in between I guess, AncestryDNA gives the west Asian result to a lot of people and a lot of the time the west Asian is too high and seems impossible I watched this family test on AncestryDNA and there son who was Nordic looking and was a normal white American of like Irish and Scandinavian descent I think got like 4 percent west Asian or something which I find hard to believe I have also seen balkanites get some high amounts of west Asian results I am actually waiting for my ancestry DNA results I might also do 23andme in the future
