Do I actually have Greek ancestry?

[HerculesGB]

Nah, 50%, let alone 70% is impossible in my opinion. Don't fall for the looks, someone who is 35% low caste Indian, 50% Greek and 15% Middle Eastern is not gonna be a Nordic or Slavic looking person.

Mortimer's mother looks Indian as a mofo and he's over 80% European being half Serbian.

Well there must be something to it haha. For instance, in my family Indian phenotype is low. We have an East Mediterranean look. Although I am about 40% Indian. There are Germanic/Slavic looking people in my extended family too.

That is fascinating, though it always happens in mixed ethnic groups. Ashkenazi Jews, Turkic peoples, Latin Americans, etc.

Yes indeed. Many people think I am Algerian for some reason maybe because of the light skin and dark hair and eyes and long nose [emoji23]

My grandmother on my mom’s side had green-greyish eyes. Light beige skin and curly dark hair while her sister has blond hair and blue eyes pale pigmentation.

If Ydna defines what we are better than autosomal, tell me what I am.

Y-DNA in many cases definitely seems related to the language people speak and also autosomal DNA. But not saying that's always the case. People identify with y-dna, autosomal, mtdna language, culture etc. or whatever they like.

You absolutely have significant Greek ancestry. AncestryDNA breakdown is very reliable and you get typical Greek components.

That’s good. Even though it’s not recent. I am basically Greek/Indian mutt genetically [emoji23]

Would you be able to try my coordinates as well? Thanks

Obviously you are .

@HerculesGB

I think most roma score like you, i do too, but with more "balkan" because im nearly half serbian... I think most roma have some greek, i dont think you have a recent greek ancestor, maybe it is from their stay in the byzantine empire/turkey that they have anatolian, aegean etc.

So you probably do have greek ancestry, but like majority of roma, you do not have a recent greek ancestor i think you are hundred percent roma
