Come on, how did you manage classify this guy as a Balt based on K13? This is what he scores in K13 Vahaduo:

4.17789421 Sorb_Lusatia
4.39388211 Masurian

[Leto]

Both Funen samples are extremely similar to my father's K13 (first three components - 50% Baltic, 26% North Atlantic, 9% West Med). Just saying.

[Peterski]

VK160 could be a Balt, but not the other two.

=====

These are Balts for example (just like those two with 30-40% "Finnish-like", although they could also be Livonians):

i'm not sure if it was because of the Balticness. i placed all the Viking samples, and vahaduo k13 updated North/West Euro, Baltic/Finnic and West/East Slavic(+ 4 early Slavic samples) averages on a PCA, and deleted those who visually looked as too big outliers from the West/East/early Slavic cluster.

VK160 is borderline Slav/Balt, there are Poles with over 28% and even over 30% East_Central_Euro:

See, this one has both Lithuanians and Russians among top distances, so he was a Balto-Slavic mix:

To sum up, I think you should include VK474 and VK139, but do not include VK160 (clearly mixed with Balts).

i'm not sure if it was because of the Balticness. i placed all the Viking samples, and vahaduo k13 updated North/West Euro, Baltic/Finnic and West/East Slavic(+ 4 early Slavic samples) averages on a PCA, and deleted those who visually looked as too big outliers from the West/East/early Slavic cluster.

Show me a Lithuanian that is closest to Sorb_Lusatia in K13, except for these which are Poles from Lithuania (or something like that):

https://www.theapricity.com/forum/sh...outh-Lithuania

BTW, my regional averages for Lithuania are based on academic samples but I removed these Slavic-shifted outliers. I have only pure Balts.

In Global25, Davidski added some of the Slavic-shifted "Lithuanians" and there are Polish users who are closest to these samples, see:

http://www.historycy.org/index.php?s...&#entry1910654

Polish user Radek is closest to these samples in Global25:
