Compilation of Argentine genetic studies (barplots)

[Berlko2]

Great work! Very interesting.

taking into consideration genetic studies i would say around 15-18% of argentines being 50% amerindian or more.

And how many would you say that are +85% European?

around 40% IMO. Taking into account that buenos aires/cordoba barplots should be similar to that of Santa Fe, Entre Rios and La Pampa. And we have the majority of the population in those provinces.

region?

Salta and Jujuy in the northwest limit would be the most amerindian regions in the country.

Argentina is much more mixed than i thought.

Same.

Reading about Argentina (Wikipedia, CIA World Factbook and even old encyclopedias) most claimed that it was a "white country" with some minorities. The reality is that Argentina is whiter than Latin American countries and stands out for that reason, and was historically a developed European nation (because all the European immigration they received, second only to the US, being one of the richest countries in the world) that gave the perception of a European country. But I think things changed during the second half of the XX century and those European immigrants started admixing to a larger scale and immigrants from other latin american countries (heavily amerindian) replaced the European as the main source of immigration.

My perception is that Argentina, phenotipically, is a mostly white European country, with perhaps over 70% of the population passing as Europeans (mostly southern Europeans but also a central and northern European), and the other 30% is clearly admixed. Genotypically, as Argentano says, more than half of the population is admixed to various degrees, but there's a large share of the population that is overwhelmingly European (almost half of the population) which numbers about 20 million people.

Yes Argentina is not a white country but take into consideration that Pampa/buenos aires/cordoba barplots ( 2,3,4 most euro ones) would be representative for around 65% of the country population and jujuy/salta barplots (9,10,11 least euro) would be representative for 5% of the country. The amount of barplots is not proportional to importance in the argentine population.

Some do but on average people with italian surnames are more euro
