DNA test results of Chris596

His Alfold side must be south/Balkan shifted, is my guess. Because Szeklers already are. So I would bet on far-back Serbian ancestry in his case.
Checking matches and haplogroup testing can give better insight on that.

Iam sorry but I have to say you should not throw out money for this . The only good thing is that you have a raw data now.

Congrats on your results Chris!

You don't need another autosomal test. Especially not 23andme. Myheritage raw data is superior to 23andme by far.

Those commercial companies algorithm isn't to be taken seriously anyway. And myheritage will update soon.
Their Balkan means modern South Slavic, not Greek or Albanian. It's different than 23andme. So it already includes Paleo-Balkan + Slavic/East European

Your east Asian score is high for Hungarian/European. As for rest, I would guess your Alfold side has possible Serbian immigrant ancestry, based on matches you get.

If I was you, I would buy G25 coordinates and invest in deeper haplogroup testing on yseq.
You don't need 23andme or Ancestry and whatever, if fact you are lucky to chose Myheritage for less money and best raw data if you ask me.

Thank you! I agree with you and really, 95% can't be too far from the reality if this is the case.

Without German admixture in certain parts of Hungary, avarage Hungarian dna result would be purely balkanic.

Yes and it's really interesting that I have almost zero German admixture, except the little Scandinavian. Jewish is another mistery but that's even lower.

Funny that I have a lot of DNA matches from Germany, but basically all the names are like: Jevremovic, Dragovic, Bozovic, Svetozar, etc. etc.

These sound like Serbs to me. Maybe you can message them and check.

I think quite a few hungarians don't have any. I probably don't have it either, at least not in the past 200-300 years.

I think German admixture amoung Hungarians can depend a lot on the region. There were multiple waves of German settlements into Hungary, but most of the German admixture in Hungarians come from the 18th settlement of southern Germans in Transdanubia. Eastern part of Hungary was relatively untouched by this last wave of German migration.

How many matches do you get from Hungary and Romania?

[Scandal]

How much did the testing cost, including the shipping?

52 from Hungary
42 from Romania

Weird that I have 67 matches from Sweden but most of the users from there also have south slavic surnames. I also have a lot of matches from Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro but I bet it would be even higher in reality.

I buy Myheritage for one woman on action last week for 50 EUR, shipping additional 8 EUR. Really good deal.
23andme in comparison has horrible shipping price (almost as much as kit cost!) at least for Croatia.
