MY SHOCKING FTDNA RESULTS

[gixajo]

I'm on several NA groups and all people agreed on ftdna and 23andme being the best companies for autosomal (btw they will soon update their database). On myheritage I scored 11% iberian and 11% sardinian and on dnaland I score 10% iberian, 1.4% finnish and 26% mediterranean islander (sardinia?) ..they all give me weird results meanwhile other moroccans seem to have "stable" and logical results in average 70% NA with some arab, ssa and iberian/italian. For ftdna I uploaded my raw data from MH Idk if it can influence the results

My FTDNA results were also from MH raw data.

All Moroccan results I´ve seen used to be quite homogeneous in MH. 70/90% North African and then mostly European(South usually but sometimes also North) and some Arab as you said.

Get your g25 and you will have more data to get a better overview.

You know perfectly that we must no take any single result as an absolute truth.

Didn´t you tried Morley´s calculator to get a prediction about your paternal haplogroup?

Looks like a regular North African, i don't see any exotic ancestry.

Yes sure I'll get them soon and yes this is the morley prediction :

indeed that's why those ftdna results are weird

You should get your G25 coordinates and if you're more serious also do Dantelabs (its 300euro right now), it will give you autosomal RAW dna (full genome sequence) and you'll be able to upload on Yfull and discover your haplogroup + subclade.

Yes I'll get them soon I hope and as for dantelabs I'm curious to see your results because I suppose you ordered your kit but honestly I don't think I'll buy it it's way too expensive for me. Where do you think I should do a y-dna test ? ftdna or yseq ?

Interesting!

I've sent my Dantelabs kit like a week ago (I had it all the time at my house but I was too lazy to send it lol), and they're already quality checking it and someone else I know he sent it like 2 weeks ago and they're already sequencing his DNA rn and they should be finished this week, so they're working faster than they promise . But if you want to do something cheaper you could go for FTDNA, I wouldn't advise to do YSEQ because maybe you're not even J1 so we don't know for sure yet in which haplogroup division you belong. Either do FTDNA str markers or do a 23andMe test to make sure about your main haplogroup branch.
