On 23andme I get some Eastern European ancestry. I wonder where it comes from. I think I have some Slavic ancestry on my Turkish side, that maybe gets compressed into additional Finnish?
My haplogroup is I-m438, which seems to be a very old and basal haplogroup (older than the most common Slavic I2a's).
Finns are not mixed with Scandinavians, it's the other way around. My Finnish parent is from southwestern Finland and is probably more or less identical to a Finland-Swede. Finland has only been sparsely populated by Swedes.
Interesting. Makes me wonder where the West Med comes from. Is that Iberian? Is it common in Greeks?

You are an interesting genetic combination, sorry if it comes off as awkward
I assumed you would score some Central Asian / East Asian but you don't. But Turks and Finns are diverse in this aspect. You score just 3%+ of Siberian.

@Kuningaz, 23andme gives a very reliable result of our genealogical ancestry, because their goal has been to serve US citizens and their ancestry covers only a genealogical time frame. What they miss is all before Columbus, also on our side of the Atlantic Ocean.

I wouldn't have any idea. The only reason I know this is because the Turkish state released its genealogy records back in 2018: https://www.google.com/amp/s/ahvalne...olumnist%3famp

Yeah, but it's true, the randomness of genetic recombination can cause one to inherit much more of one parent, even one grandparent's DNA (I seem to be about 35% my mother's father).
But also, the DNA testing process will also, I'm sure, interpret things unequally. That's why so many people can get such different results from different testing companies.

So based on my results, how would you classify me racially and ethnically? Turkish or Greek? European or Asian? White or mixed race? My identity has changed somewhat since I took the DNA test. I regard myself as Greek and Finnish. Actually mostly Finnish (culturally speaking).
