Levantine Arabs or Iranians, which one is genetically more European on average?

[Dr_Maul]

It is interesting, because Levantines usually plot closer to South European cluster than Iranians do.

I guess Gedrosia and some type of South Asian admix makes Iranians plot farther, also Levant traces in South Europe

double

Lebanese are closer to South Europeans in general, but Iranians have more North-Euro like admixture

Defining European as EEF+Yamnaya+WHG on G25 (using Davidski standard calculator with CHG instead of Kura Axes and only Barcin N)

Lebanese_Christian_Greek_Orthodox: 27.7
Syrian: 23.2
Iranian_Fars: 34.4
Iranian_Zoroastrian: 37.8

Are Yamnaya fully European? AFAIK, they have significant amount of Caucasus/Gedrosia.

[Dr_Maul]

Are Yamnaya fully European? AFAIK, they have significant amount of Caucasus/Gedrosia.

They are roughly half Caucasus/Gedrosia but if you say they aren't European you are implying NW Euros are 20% not european, which isn't really right tbh.

Lebanese and Syrians have more Levant_PPNB that "Barcin"
