    Are you from Brazil? This is an interesting test I'm not sure if it is available for me.

    Yes, what do you think? How mixed am I to you? I think I shouldn't really worry about that 6% (African and Indigenous) since it's such a small %

    You are pretty much what I'd imagine colonial stock to be in terms of the extra percentages. I'm not very familiar with this test and how the algorithm works but it says you are only 30% Iberian + 4% basque, but you have 19% Italian... so I'm assuming also Italian ancestry (cool), and then a good chunk of western Europe at 22%. Could you upload this data to Gedmatch.com and try eurogenes k13 calculator? Then we'd be able to trace your ancestry more accurately, thanks!

    And I think you should embrace that 6% which to me very interesting part of your heritage! But to answer your question, yes it isn't that much- you are predominantly European.

    Gedmatch is free you just upload your Genera test raw data to the site and you can use specific calculators. I recommend trying out Eurogenes K13, K15, and K36, as these calculators can specify where your European heritage is predominant/ other non-euro heritage. You wanna do this b/c you never know if the Italian is being mistaken for Iberian, or the other way around, same with the other components. You can also see how far in distance genetically you are from a certain region of a certain country.

    So for instance, on K13 I get my closest distance as:

    Single Population Sharing:

    # Population (source) Distance
    1 Portuguese 2.92
    2 Spanish_Castilla_Y_Leon 2.94
    3 Spanish_Murcia 3.68

    Makes sense that I get a closer distance to Portugal... b/c I am Portuguese , but I also have this tendency to get Castille Y Leon as well, maybe proving a northern iberian connection to my ancestry... or just simply that I match the avg Castillian components decently well.

    And you can get mixed oracles like this:

    1 98.1% Spanish_Castilla_Y_Leon + 1.9% Sandawe @ 2.54

    So it can really help confirm your heritage well.
