Classify mexican with ftdna results.

Nope.

I doubt she is 87% caucasoid anyways.

It could be the10% MENA admixture. ¿Jew or lebanese provenience?

Well dna don't lie . I also have plenty of mexicans from family tree dna despite looking very mestizo are over 75% euro caucasian/mena etc


Her 10% mena admixture is probably Sephardic jew origin

Thanks. So you are roughly 80% European. I wouldn't have guessed you are ~20% non-white but then again, it's no secret the Amerindian is often invisible in smaller amounts (10-20%).

His amerindian admixture is from the southern cone which is lighter than amerindians from zones nearer to the Equador.

Most castizos in the southern cone (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay) resemble european for this reason, while in other zones don´t.

Well there are even jews that have sephardic identity despite 500 of persecution, they are not crypto and everyone knows who they are.

For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xueta

Many powerful politicians in Spain nowadays are crypto-jews with hidden identity.

Yes the same in Italy. Rita Levi Montalcini for example. Primo Levi as well.

A person with the surname Levi is not hidden.

A person with the surname Levi is not hidden.

Yes it's a typical jewish name. Italian jewish "official" community has never been numerous but crypto-jews, and people with jewish heritage without knowing it are probably dozens of thousands if not more.

Nope. Interestingly she looks much more mixed than what its insinuated in her DNA results.

Good example of genotype does not equal phenotype phenomenon

I bet she could pass, 13% Amerindian isn't that much. There are a lot of Mexicans that are genetically similar to Spaniards but some people don't want to hear this.

Only the white ones (=>85% Euro) are genetically close to Spaniards, and could pass in Spain, and not always. The girl in the OP has a very new world vibe, and would not pass that well in Spain.

That's a myth. Do you think that these castizas from countries outside of the southern cone are darker and less Euro looking than castizos from the southern cone?

Mexican Actress Yuliana Peniche;



Venezuelan castiza:



I don't think so.

The southern cone countries have more castizos than most other Latin American countries, which is a different thing, but the castizos from other Latin American countries are not necessarily darker than their counterparts from the southern cone.

And I don't think that Venezuelan Amerindians are darker than Amerindians from the southern cone, btw.
