Gedmatch - North Euro ancestry in Latinos -Thousand of samples

[Argentano]

The picture above, the brazilian boxplots is a little different because of 2 things.

1)Portuguese score more north sea than spanish

2)actual germanic ancestry in the outliers.

It's kinda expected to see Argentinians and Brazilians, but any reasons for Cubans having higher northern ancestry?

The cuban result looks identical to the spanish result. Dont pay attention to outliers. They are outliers.


Take into consideration the more samples i have from a certain sample, the more outliers there will be

[Tenma de Pegasus]

Brazil is the country with more outliers followed by Argentina by far compared to the rest.

Brazil also has the highest North Sea + Baltic ancestry not necessarily because of some northern euro population, but both because g
German population and the Portugueses/Northwest Iberian with a bit more northern euro than the average for Spain and Italy.

Argentina is the second and they have very varied results up North and down South due to German and South italian/East Mediterranean influence balancing the country results and average.

Cuba, despite being very exclusive iberian, seems to be the third on average, but that not by a huge margin compared to others. This little difference could be just because their Galician influence that probably shows a bit more north euro since they share the same past of Portugueses.

I just remembered Argentina Iberian immigration was also heavily Galician/Northwest Iberian, this could also explain their second place.

Colombia have the lowest north euro by a quite considerable margin, I dont understand why, maybe their big Basque input... but thats still strange. I was expecting to see Colombia more north euro than DR, Mexico and PR who are very Canarian, South/Southeast Iberian and New Christian.

Finally, Costa Rica the last interesting result, they have very diverse results despite being very small and very Iberian.

[Tenma de Pegasus]

Looking againt at the boxplots, there is a 12.5% of the argentine sample that is actually below the south italian boxplots. Thats probably non southern euro ancestry.

Makes sense

That analysis is perfect!
And about Baltic ancestry, Brazil has the biggest diaspora of poles and probably ukranians too in LA.

We shouldnt really be paying that much attention to outliers because the more samples in a certain country, the more outliers there will be. 1% of 100 is 1. 1% of 1.000 is 10.

The brazilian sample is by far the biggest with almost 1500 kits.

True, but only the first phrase was about outliers. Averages are way more important.

Colombians tend to have a slightly higher atlantic which is probably basque ancestry. But in that boxplot atlantic is not taken into account.

Could you post the average east med by country? Or any exotic admixture like Red Sea for example.
