20% Italian, LOL.

I hope this does go to GEDmatch, and soon. I just went from xp to windows 8 and still feel too alienated by it to try to install programs and files like these on it.

She's lacking a few key components

Not enough North African.

Loki do you have Italians in your AF?

Edit: looked for you & nope. Wonder what shared ancestry gave you the high score.

I wonder what is the difference between Italian, Mediterranean, West_Mediterranean and East_Mediterranean.

I wonder what is the difference between Italian, Mediterranean, West_Mediterranean and East_Mediterranean.

On another forum they said something about the different Med components being based on different Jewish groups.

And I think they said the Italian component was North Italians and Tuscans.

I wonder what is the difference between Italian, Mediterranean, West_Mediterranean and East_Mediterranean.

Mediterranean = Sephardic & Moroccan Jewish.
Italian = Tuscan & North Italian.
West_Med = Sardinian.
East_Med = Lebanese, Druze & Cyprian.

"Italian".. which group in Italy is used to measure this? I'd like to see a southerner's results to see if they get inflated East Mediterranean or if it is incorporated into "Italian".

Thanks for the link.

The "Italian" component is going to mask some of the other components in Italians and Greeks, and will make it difficult to tell how much of the other components they actually have since North Italians and Tuscans will have affinity to both east and west Meds.
