Longbowman's AncestryDNA

[Kamal900]

You're basically Roman+Lebanese with spritz of Rhineland German. I wrote a blog entry about it years ago.... The details may be off, but I'm more or less right.

Indeed. I mean, western Jewish people came from the mixture between Israelite Jewish men and converted European women from Southern Europe with some SSA admixture(which is between 3 to 5% on average which is 72 generations ago) and other European and MENA components to a certain extent.

cool results longbowman
very close to your my origins 2.0
there you got 5% southeast Europe
and here in ancestry test you got 6% south Europe
also the aschenazi cluster % is very close to my origins 2.0 .

What's your gedmatch kit number? I want to compare my results to yours if I may.

It's not an Ashkenazi cluster, but yes, I thought it was noticeably similar in that regard also.

My FTDNA was:

95% Jewish Diaspora
-90% Ashkenazi (overestimation)
-5% Sephardi (underestimation)
3% European
-3% Southeast European (misreading most likely)
Trace:
<1% North Africa (misreading of Jewish)
<1% South America (lol no)
<1% West Middle East (misreading of Jewish)

I'm extremely disappointed you had no embarissing tabs opened on your screenshot. Otherwise congrats.

Ensiferum is a little embarrassing but not as embarrassing as misspelling embarrassing.

It's not as high as 3-5% in Ashkenazim or many Sephardim. I'm on less than 2% myself. 1-6% is the range with 2-3% being most common.

I know an Ashkenazi with a typically SSA YDNA clade. IE, a friend, not an internet friend.

AncestryDNA specifies European Jewish is Ashkenazi and Sephardic, so 90% is in fact a little bit of an underestimation, and apparently below the average range of the average European Jew, which makes sense and is probably due to not being fully European Jewish, and being off-centre for being Ashkenazi/Sephardi. Apparently the subdivision on this site is 'West and Central Europe[an Jewish]' and 'Central & Eastern Europe[an] Jewish' and I'm only West and Central which is pretty cool because according to their little map, I do not have any more than 1/16 or 1/32 'Eastern' ancestry (seemingly Litvak) and they called it.

Ranges:

European Jewish: 84-94%
Europe South: 0-14%
Iberian Peninsula: 0-4%
Europe East: 0-3%
Caucasus: 0-3%
Europe West: 0-3%

Took about 2 weeks. Not bad.

Great results, congratz Longbowman!

Grats bro, do Ashkenazi Jews also have minor Greek admixture? I have seen some discussions about this matter on your beloved forum called Anthrogenica.

Only 1% Spanish?? get lost.
