    Default What is your ancestral latitude?

    I'm about 53.13° Northern, based on my father's family (c. 53.28°), and my mother's family (c. 52.98°).

    Dad about 60.5, mom about 60.2. Pretty far from the woggosphere.

    Because your map includes Scotland and Northern Ireland, it should also include the following federal subjects of Russia:

    Federal subject Southernmost point Type
    Nenetsia 65.8 Autonomous Okrug
    Karelia 60.7 Republic
    Komi Republic 59.2 Republic
    Udmurtia 55.9 Republic
    Mari El 55.8 Republic
    Chuvashia 54.6 Republic
    Tatarstan 54.5 Republic
    Mordovia 53.6 Republic

    For comparison, my latitude based on my DNA data (via Eurogenes K36)

    Pretty accurate.

    It's quite likely that most of our ancestors were at roughly this latitude (circa 53°) for thousands of years, going back to Early Corded Ware in Eastern Europe, which I find pretty cool.
