    Default Maltese 23andme Results! Since no one on here has seen one before.

    It is very similar to a western Sicilian, i.e. Agrigento, Palermo, Trapani, because Maltese are Sicilians as I have tried to say for years, not Arabs.

    She appears in the West Asian plot beside, but not with, the Druze just like people in Agrigento do, since that is where most Maltese ancestry comes from.

    On the PCA plot this Maltese person is right where my Ashkenazi Jewish mother is. Like literally almost the same exact spot.

    Not all of the Sicilians I share with do, but many do. I only share with this one Maltese woman so I do not know if her situation is applicable for all Maltese. Either way, the Maltese come from the most "non-European" parts of Sicily genetically (Agrigento, Gela, Caltanissetta etc) so I would not be surprised if they are like a sample of exotic Sicilians put on another island, and didn't get much of the Greek admixture that characterizes the rest of Sicily.

    Malta is basically an extension of Agrigento and Caltanissetta. Their genes, surnames (Vella, Schembri, Camilleri), their culture.

    They do have some input from Palermo too, though. But very little of their ancestry is from the east (Messina, Catania, Syracuse, or Enna) and only a minor amount is from Ragusa.

    Which thing?

    The interesting trend I notice is this. The only other Maltese result I have seen, clusters in the same place (in the Near East plot), but I am not sharing with him, I just saw his results on another site.

    Sicilians who have 100% of their ancestry from Agrigento, also generally will plot only in the Near East plot and not in the European one. But Sicilians from every other province will show up either in both, or at the very bottom of the Southern European plot only. The only exception may be Trapani since I am not sharing with anyone from there.

    This makes little sense; I plot on the East European (SE) spot.

    This Maltese woman does not even make it onto the European plot.
