    I think Turks (especially Western Turks) to be a Eurasian ethnicity, halfway between Greece and Central Asia culturally and genetically. You guys are probably the most European Middle Eastern country. I think that if Turks did not adopt Islam, Europe would think of them as European. After all, the Magyars were accepted after doing similar acts as the Turks because they adopted Christianity.

    According to their pie chart:

    Highest European: Balkan Turks with around 60% followed by W Turks with 45%

    Highest E Asian & Siberian combined: S Turks with 8% followed by C and N Turks 7%. Lowest E Turks 2-3%

    Highest S Asian: E Turks with 4-5%

    Highest Caucasus: E Turks with 47%


    Are these numbers accurate? No because the numbers will change depending on what components the calculators uses. For ex 23andme, Dodecad k12, this study, other studies.

    If you want more accurate numbers you have to figure out exactly which populations are ancestral to Turks. If your guess is accurate then qpAdm should give you accurate admixture breakdown.
