Yes, it's probably from Romania's Moldavia, because it doesn't exist in this form in R. Moldova. There are only variations of it, Chichii, Chichioi, Chichici, Chichin, etc.

I ran his data trough updated K13. Definitely full Moldovan IMO. Surname seem to be from Botosani district too on that map.

Why not? They pull South.

They need to score tons of Mongoloid, and to have many asiatic features, because in the past in that region lived Nogais, the most cheburek looking Tatars.

But people look like that here:

Spoiler!

There's a person on this list who scored 2.06% Oceanian. It's quite high, so it can't be noise. What is the possible explanation to this?

Maybe, but the most popular family name there is still Turkic, so at some point there was at least one guy who had a lot of offspring.

Oceanian for people without Melanesian, Papuan or Polynesian descent is usually just an overflow from the Siberian/East Asian components. They are closely related, despite how different these groups look physically.

The Oceanian is just noise. Even 2 percent can be noise if it pops up only on one calculator. The Oceanians are basically Australian Aboriginals, they ain't Siberian at all.

I'll provide the average coordinates for K13 in a sec, so don't bother transcribing from the image

Nice post, I agree.

Exist this study about frequency of haplogroups in today Republic compared to Romania (Moldova region). And from southern parts the samples were taken from the same region, village Carahasani, neighboring with Caplani.

In that village exist just one haplogroup who seems to be of Turanic origin, N-P43. Theoretically, similar situation need to be in Caplani too. In the north, in Sofia, one individual have haplogroup Q.
