There are other companies that say they compare your DNA with ancient people. But I wouldn't use them because they are too expensive and/or don't have genetic genealogy research tools. This tool is just a novelty, so don't spend too much for it.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics I did use one of these services that compares with ancient DNA. It blew my mind and I discovered some interesting things. First, I've got DNA that matches people from China, India, South America, Mexico, and Cuba. I'm 98% European. My family is rather more long-lived than average and the DNA said I had the same longevity genes as the long-lived Chinese and Italian populations.
I've been using Gedmatch for a long time. I became frustrated with the testing companies that use current population to compare to people alive now in the US. Using the Archaic DNA it matches my paper-trail perfectly. I just set it on.07 and the lines pop out. Especially since the Swiss ancestor was added. I would like to see more research Clovis child because I match him as much as the European DNA.
Before Gedmatch changed/updated their archaic DNA samples, I kept noticing how my match to the Ust-Ishim Siberian sample seemed to be pretty significant. Now that that sample appears to be gone from the Archaic DNA portion of Gedmatch, I have compared one of my kits (A742089) with the Ust-Ishim kit (F999935) at a cM level of 3, and get a result of of 28.3 cMs (!!!). Is that possible? I mean, there it is, but am I misinterpreting something? I'm so glad you made this video, as I have wanted to ask this question for such a long time. Thank you for any info!
Thank you for this video, good timing! My ancient DNA data is showing being linked to the Kennewick man and I do so on my DNA have some Native American with 23andMe, and three more companies. I see that my longest chain is 43.49cM, and shortest is 24.4cM. So I think this is a possibility.
Thank you for your excellent videos! I have a question about my ancient matches. I share one larger 3.5 cM segment with the Clovis boy and many smaller (less than 2 cM) segments. I also have many small matches (less than 3 cM) with Ust-Ishim. The largest match is 8.5 cM with the Hungarian NE1. Does that mean that I'm somehow connected to those people or is it just error? Thank you!
When dealing with these small segments it is difficult to make any kind of interpretation, because you don't know (although you can safely assume) that they are false matches.
This may seem far fetched but I'm going to ask it anyway. Since we have genetic DNA samples of these archaic humans in the GEDMatch website, I was wondering about the non traditional remains that have been found and if the DNA samples have been taken and submitted to databases like this that we could compare to. For example, the remains that have been found of giants in Sardinia, Italy or the remains of people with elongated skulls in the Mayan and Inca civilizations as well as Central Asia Huns. Or any of the weirder ancient remains that modern discoveries have found. I am fascinated by this. Hope to hear your take on it.
There isn't really anything stopping such remains from being uploaded if researchers with access to such want to include them. The only question is, do they and will they?
6.12.23 I found this particular tool to be very interesting for me, definitely showed matches, albeit small cM, to populations that I did not expect to see. Did not expect to see 'Native American' hits in my past. Makes me even more curious!
I get extremely similar results to your grandfather at 2 cM yet I'm of Greek ancestry. NE1 Hungary 7.2ky, BR2 Hungary3.2 ky, LBK Stuttgard 7ky, Loschbour Lux 8ky, all have the same amount of of common ancestry as your grandfather and were my best results. I get some smatterings elsewhere as well and surprisingly a little bit of Irish at 3.2ky and 2ky. Could it be that most Europeans would get similar results because the accuracy at that level of cM isn't that great? Either that or these fellas were the Don Juans of their time.
I was, at first, only interested by modern DNA links but when I did my Ancient DNA I was amazed and fascinated. I have found it is significant to the modern DNA too. I thought I was entirely European, I am in the UK, - I do have a lot of Ancient DNA from UK, Ireland and other parts of Europe but I have several types of Indigenous American from both N and S America, this tallies with the fact that I have a large number of Indigenous American DNA matches, who, after years of doing my DNA, I have linked many with specific common ancestors. I also tie in with the Headless Gladiators from York and the Ancient Woman from Ireland as well as Rathlin man. The Ice man from the Italian border is another. These are just a few of the Ancient roots that showed up.
So, are archaic shared cm's under one to one autosomal from the mother only? I'm confused - I thought autosomal only went back 5-6 generations so how could I have common dna from thousands of years ago? Are they using my mitochondrial dna? And I thought autosomal was both maternal and paternal, but my autosomal shared dna show no shared dna when I do the same archaic kit under X.
If I go to the 2 cm level, like you did, I also share many segments of DNA with both Clovis and Ust'Ishim man, but it's because my mother is East Asian. In my case, I have more common segments with Ust' Ishim man than Clovis, while your Hispanic friend has the opposite- more shared segments with Clovis man. If one looks via the default setting of 0.5 centimorgans, my DNA and Clovis' looks like an almost solid orange bar, and it's the same with Ust' Ishim- the Western Siberian who lived 45,000 years ago. Her's probably looks very similar. I wonder what Ust' Ishim man looked like. Only his femur (thigh) bone was found with intact, surprisingly well-preserved DNA, maybe because the area is cold and dry.
I hate to rain on anybody's parade but if you are mostly of Germanic decent, this is most likely where your Clovis matches come from, especially if your ancestors haven't been living in the US for over 150 years. I am German and Bulgarian (from Germany) and I have one of the highest Clovis matches among European kits that I have seen so far; I certainly do not have any Native American ancestry. My Bulgarian one-to-many matches hardly score any Clovis, probably because they are more Middle Eastern-shifted, so a Protobulgar connection can be ruled out as the source. I would say about 25% of all Germans that I have checked so far get Clovis matches at 2 cm, while all the Finnish kits I have seen match Clovis. Similarly, Uzbeks also match with Clovis. It is probably simply indicative of ANE ancestry that is shared by most peoples who originated around the Ural mountains or in the Eurasian steppe.
Weird. I am from Brazil and I and my main DNA matches were with Ballynahatty and Rathlin, Ireland. I guess that is because the North of the Iberic Penisula was Celtic for many years.
There’s actually a video on RUclips about how the ancient Ballynahatty Woman’s DNA is closest matched to modern people from Spain and Sardinia. She is from waaaay before Celtic times, about 5,000 years ago (the Celts were more like 2,000 years ago). A big part of the reason at least is because there was a huge migration event into Europe after her time (about 4,500 years ago into Britain and Ireland, though earlier further East) that replaced most of the population in Northern Europe, but less of the population in Southern Europe. So modern Southern Europeans are more closely related to these earlier Europeans than Northern Europeans are. So although she lived in what is now Ireland, she is more closely related to modern people in the Iberian peninsula than those in Ireland. The video also mentions the ancient samples from Rathlin, but I didn’t watch it all so not sure what it says about those samples. Probably similar though. The video is called “Ancient Irish DNA match with Modern Spanish” on a channel called ROCK N WOODWORKS. I’ll try and post a link in the comment under this, but I don’t know if it will work because RUclips often won’t allow posting links…
I just checked my GF's DNA (Korean descent) on GEDMatch and she is slightly related to the Clovis culture. She was shocked when she found she has a lot of DNA relatives that are American Indian
I really like this video. For ancient DNA what number of cMs starts to move in the direction away from likely noise to likely genetic match? 3.5? 4? 5?
I see an R by your name. My has a y infront of it and Iv tried watching so many peoples video and looked on the web and their site but can’t figure out why I have a y infront of my name, maybe you could explain? Please and thank you cause it’s driving me bonkers
I'm a native of north Borneo an island in southeast Asia, and I'm so surprised to see that I have a common DNA with several ancient people who lived in Ireland, Georgia, Switzerland, and 4% percent of my DNA is from the Baltic region, and another 4% from east Mediterranean, somewhere around Israel.
My guess is that there aren't a lot of people in the SE Asia database (and there is a lot of genetic variety in those people) so you probably will see some funky things with the ethnicity estimates.
@@ahfezthe Baltics and uralics/ finnics have Siberian origins in one of the haplogroups either maternal or paternal so your probably getting ancient connections from that
My highest match is a 9 cM with Clovis, Montana. Is this a relatively substantial match? It says on the Ancient DNA matches that my 9cM match with Clovis is on chromosome 22, but the one-to-one only shows matches on chromosomes 1 and 3, at 5.9 and 4.7 cM.
Edit: I lowered the SNP size to 100 and it shows up on chromosome 22 that there is a match with 9cM and 253 SNPs. Is there a reason this match doesn't show up when the size is set to 200 SNPs?
Very impressive!, All my grandfather's fathers are all Hungarian, ever since beyond 1500, my best was surprisingly only 6cm for Hungry NE1. Did you end up having Hungarian relatives?
thank you for this video! I think I have a better understanding now. I have 7 cM Ballynahatty and 6 cm Rathlin1 and 3 cM Hinxton (Oakington, Cambridgeshire) which is so interesting to me as I am study the Iceni people and Boudica - and my mother's ancestors came from Norwich, Norfolk. These are higher and more dependable match?
Higher and more dependable is difficult to ascertain. It seems that you have a larger segment that could be the same as this ancient people. Notice all the 'possible' type words I'm using. Accuracy is a difficult term to use.
Andrew, the same Clovis-pattern you show in the video can be seen with most "trueblood" middle European kits, if you lower the threshold to 1 or 2 cm. In a broader sense, Clovis seems not to be an valid indicator for native American heritage but for Eurasian hunter-gatherer heritage. Nevertheless, the matching pattern of e.g. a Navajo with Clovis should be much(?) more intense than that of a European. But caveat: There seems to be a big difference between the "intensity" of the matching patterns of DNA kits from different sources. Newer Ancestry kits seem to produce more matches than those from some other providers. [written by a "trueblood" middle European 😉] --- I'm watching almost all of your and your family's videos. Cheers from Germany for your good work! 👍
Thanks @rghrgh. I’m only just starting on this subject in the past 24 hours, and was curious, despite being Irish (as in born, raised to multiple generations from the same geographic area on the island of Ireland), as to how I could have a hit on the 17th chromosome at 3cM with Clovis and nothing with the UK genomes until I get down to 1cM. That makes more sense to me.
One set of my grandparents were from Denmark, one from Scotland/Ireland and I have a 6cm match with the Clovis sample. Fascinating how humans were moving around back then.
I'm from Mexico too, of course, I have Mr. Clovis but also Hungary but many from Ireland (newer version than yours) and not from Spain, so I guess Irish people 2000 years ago and later moved to Spain. That Luxembourg, Siberia (same as your dad), and Stuttgart are strong too.
What a fascinating video! In comparing my file to kit F999937 (NE1 Hungary 7.2ky), on chromosome 23 I have two matching segments... one is 5.2 cM and the other is 8.1 cM. That 8.1 surprised me a lot!
It might mean that you didn't inherit that segment of DNA that relates to the Ancient people. Your DNA favored either different ancient persons or modern genes. To learn a little about how DNA is inherited, I think you might like this video. ruclips.net/video/-f7VUPmgy2U/видео.html
Since centimorgans are a unit of measure, what are the total combined centimorgans that a person can have (no matter what the ethnicity being compared)?
There are some sites which compare peoples to each other. Like comparing Germans to all other peoples to see which ones are closer or more distant from them genetically. Is this correct though? Can this really be done? Or are their results just bogus? Because it sounds like autosomal DNA can't show that, and Y-DNA and mtDNA only show one strand of a person's lineages. How do they do that then? So I guess my question is: How are ethnicities compared to see which are more closely related to which? And is it possible to answer if one people came from another people, or if they descended from one common ancestor people? Is that done through Y-DNA, mtDNA or autosomal DNA?
Are these matches real Identical By Descent segments? Or are they Identical By State where the "segment" is actually just multiple tiny segments joined together that coincidentally happen to look like a single segment? I haven't done the maths on the odds of a real segment surviving that many generations intact, but I assume it's very small.
Almost certainly they are Identical by State. I'm not sure anyone had done a study to show what percentage it really is. But even IBS could be a useful clue, not a specific one like IBD, but useful from a trivia standpoint.
Update - I ran the one-to-one comparison tool and got these results: 3.4 cM on Chr 6, 5.3 cM on Chr 8, 3.2 cM on Chr 17, 4.5 cM on Chr 20, and 3.5 cM on Chr 22, for a total of 19.9 cM. Is it possible that I’m actually related to Ust-Ishim?
When I click on 2 centimorgans Ireland totally lights up one on Ballynahatty. Interesting because most of my DNA is from the area around Iberia. I will have to do more research on this. 23andme years ago gave a health trait of hemochromatosis and said I am most likely a carrier.
Not that I know of. It would all depend on the samples available. For instance, while many of the really ancient human discoveries have been made in sub saharan Africa, they were fossilized remains - ergo no DNA. I am not aware of what African based ancient human (2000-20000 years ago) remains have been found. But if there are DNA sequences available, they certainly can be uploaded to GEDmatch.
I’m south Asian. I started to get Siberian around 4 cm and at 3 cm I started to get consistent Irish along with it. The Siberian was expected but the Irish wasn’t. Could this be due to British rule over India?
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics I agree, since both groups (Native Americans and Steppe people who migrated into Europe during the Bronze Age) share some ancestry: the Ancient North Eurasians. For more info, I suggest watching some of Dr. David Reich's videos about this interesting subject.
Nice videos it was really interesting. Hey when I got to 1.0 cM I got matches with Clovis Montana so does that mean I have Native American ancestry or just similar DNA, and I don’t live in America I’m from Australia. And if it’s is accurate I got Amerindian in some of my results and in my chromosome painting
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics lol I tried to but it kinda didn't work since the ancient dna site looks different now but I found another way of doing it. Thx
@@sr2291 yeah I already did some research! I'm middle eastern with a little bit of Greek (30%) and central asian because of migration from these areas that happened 800-1000 years ago lol.
Waves of migrating Celtic peoples from the 8th century BC onward had settled heavily in northern and central Spain, penetrating Portugal and Galicia, but left the indigenous Iberian people of the south and east intact.Apr 2, 2020 THE IRISH-SPANISH CONNECTION
And later "Why did the Irish go to Spain? Image result for did irish people moved to spain Many Irishmen in rebellion against English rule subsequently sought refuge in Spain following the Flight of the Earls (1607), and for the next two centuries Irish soldiers contributed to Spanish Army of Flanders and fought side by side during the Dutch Revolts and during the Thirty Years' War."
Maybe Mr Clovis was born in Siberia and walked all the way to Montana. After all, we know where all these people, like Otzi, died, but we don't know where they were born. (only if they are babies)
The latest theory, that is backed by genetic and other evidence, is that Native Americans descend from Ancient Beringians, who had lived on the large land bridge between Siberia and Alaska during the Ice ages. They could not migrate further south into North America until about 15,000 years ago, due to large ice sheets, but it's theorized that some migrated via coastal routes. The Ancient Beringians were descended from various groups in Siberia who migrated there and intermixed. These groups were descended from the "Ancient North Eurasians" (whose descendants also migrated into Western Eurasia later on) and people related to Ust-Ishim man (who shares about 40% of his genes with modern East Asians and Oceanians). Hence, East Asians today would share chunks of DNA with Ust-Ishim, some ancient Russians, and Clovis man. All of these people share genes with the first early modern humans who had migrated into East Asia.
i have clovis and ust ishim and zero native american ancestry, BUT im paternal haplogroup Q which according to FTDNA has a south asian origin, so im probably related to the ancestors of the native americans
I am primarily of Southern Han Chinese descent with all my 'known' (one unknown) grandparents being Chinese. However, at 2 cM, I found huge distinct bands of Clovis, Montana, Ust-Ishim, Siberia, RISE493, Russia and RISE497 Russia (where 70 to 90% of the 22 segments have bands in them). I'm not sure what this tells me so I was hoping you could help me. Thank you.
I've been doing my family ancestry by paper and I found a native American ancestor in Virginia in the 1600s, I summited my dna through 23andme and gedmatch, it shows I have a amerindian, oceania or east asian percentages in most eurogenes calculators except the k36 but when I look at the archaic dna there was no clovis or kennewick on the list, the ancient populations listed were all European, middle eastern and mid or northern Russia

She is from waaaay before Celtic times, about 5,000 years ago (the Celts were more like 2,000 years ago). A big part of the reason at least is because there was a huge migration event into Europe after her time (about 4,500 years ago into Britain and Ireland, though earlier further East) that replaced most of the population in Northern Europe, but less of the population in Southern Europe. So modern Southern Europeans are more closely related to these earlier Europeans than Northern Europeans are.

I’m only just starting on this subject in the past 24 hours, and was curious, despite being Irish (as in born, raised to multiple generations from the same geographic area on the island of Ireland), as to how I could have a hit on the 17th chromosome at 3cM with Clovis and nothing with the UK genomes until I get down to 1cM. That makes more sense to me.
One set of my grandparents were from Denmark, one from Scotland/Ireland and I have a 6cm match with the Clovis sample. Fascinating how humans were moving around back then.
yes, clovis just relates to having a common ancestor with the populations that clovis descended from, who moved over from siberia
Greeting from Hungary
Howdy from New Mexico
I'm half Peruvian. At 0,9cM I have 4 segments in common with Kennewick Man and at 0,5cM there are around 70 segments.
Cool.
Hey I'm just wondering if cM matches in certain chromosomes has a greater likelihood of being a legitimate match rather than error?
Nope.
Does the "Heat Map" at the bottom indicate anything of significance?
I'll have to look into that. I hadn't used it before.
Fascinating.
Thanks
I'm from Mexico too, of course, I have Mr. Clovis but also Hungary but many from Ireland (newer version than yours) and not from Spain, so I guess Irish people 2000 years ago and later moved to Spain. That Luxembourg, Siberia (same as your dad), and Stuttgart are strong too.
It's tough to say.
What a fascinating video! In comparing my file to kit F999937 (NE1 Hungary 7.2ky), on chromosome 23 I have two matching segments... one is 5.2 cM and the other is 8.1 cM. That 8.1 surprised me a lot!
Cool
I’m black American and I surprisingly had no archaic African dna matches, just European, Russian, Brazilian, and Kennewick USA. What does this mean?
It might mean that you didn't inherit that segment of DNA that relates to the Ancient people. Your DNA favored either different ancient persons or modern genes.
To learn a little about how DNA is inherited, I think you might like this video. ruclips.net/video/-f7VUPmgy2U/видео.html
I have a 5.0cm with Clovis in the 17th slot, what exactly does this mean?
You might share a tiny segment of DNA with an ancient human.
Since centimorgans are a unit of measure, what are the total combined centimorgans that a person can have (no matter what the ethnicity being compared)?
About 6,800 cMs www.smarterhobby.com/genealogy/shared-centimorgans
There are some sites which compare peoples to each other. Like comparing Germans to all other peoples to see which ones are closer or more distant from them genetically.
Is this correct though? Can this really be done? Or are their results just bogus? Because it sounds like autosomal DNA can't show that, and Y-DNA and mtDNA only show one strand of a person's lineages. How do they do that then?
So I guess my question is: How are ethnicities compared to see which are more closely related to which?
And is it possible to answer if one people came from another people, or if they descended from one common ancestor people? Is that done through Y-DNA, mtDNA or autosomal DNA?
Are these matches real Identical By Descent segments? Or are they Identical By State where the "segment" is actually just multiple tiny segments joined together that coincidentally happen to look like a single segment? I haven't done the maths on the odds of a real segment surviving that many generations intact, but I assume it's very small.
Almost certainly they are Identical by State. I'm not sure anyone had done a study to show what percentage it really is. But even IBS could be a useful clue, not a specific one like IBD, but useful from a trivia standpoint.
I have a 7 cM match with the Ust-Ishim man... from 45k years ago. How weird is that?
Update - I ran the one-to-one comparison tool and got these results: 3.4 cM on Chr 6, 5.3 cM on Chr 8, 3.2 cM on Chr 17, 4.5 cM on Chr 20, and 3.5 cM on Chr 22, for a total of 19.9 cM. Is it possible that I’m actually related to Ust-Ishim?
Weird or cool? That's why this tool is really intended for 'party trick' discussions.
at 9cm, I have an orange segment with Clovis, Montana 12ky in #22 box :o
Cool
How many segments are there to find centimorgans on? (How many segments does a person have??)
While I am not certain this answers your question, give this blog post a read. whoareyoumadeof.com/blog/how-many-segments-are-in-dna/
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics thank you so much
When I click on 2 centimorgans Ireland totally lights up one on Ballynahatty. Interesting because most of my DNA is from the area around Iberia. I will have to do more research on this. 23andme years ago gave a health trait of hemochromatosis and said I am most likely a carrier.
I also have majority Iberian ancestry and got Rothhill Ireland, Ballynahatty, and Bichon Switzerland
@@What7641 Have you gone on MyTrueAncestry?
@@What7641 I’m mostly Scottish, Irish and English and also share most my archaic dna with those 3
@@sr2291 have never heard of it I'll check it out
@@claytonn3957 strange. I only have 1% Scottish
I had a few matches at 7cM and was related to almost all at 3cM ! what does that mean?
On the Ancient DNA? It could mean you have that DNA. In generally, learn about small segments in this video. ruclips.net/video/aFSNXlYFnVI/видео.html
are there any similar tools which can be demonstrated, for those of us who have Sub Saharan ancestry?
Not that I know of. It would all depend on the samples available. For instance, while many of the really ancient human discoveries have been made in sub saharan Africa, they were fossilized remains - ergo no DNA. I am not aware of what African based ancient human (2000-20000 years ago) remains have been found. But if there are DNA sequences available, they certainly can be uploaded to GEDmatch.
Why I dont have the clovis man, or other american in the list, when I open this archaic dna matches?
Because you didn't inherit that DNA. Not everyone is lucky.
I have a few matches at 2.0 cM... is this normal?
Yep
I’m south Asian. I started to get Siberian around 4 cm and at 3 cm I started to get consistent Irish along with it. The Siberian was expected but the Irish wasn’t. Could this be due to British rule over India?
Very possibly. Or, you're looking at small segments which could be false matches.
that is the DNA you carry from neanders around 2.6 %
I have lots of clovis matches as well and I'm from the UK. I think it just relates to a common ancestor in the siberians who moved across to americas
Perhaps.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics I agree, since both groups (Native Americans and Steppe people who migrated into Europe during the Bronze Age) share some ancestry: the Ancient North Eurasians. For more info, I suggest watching some of Dr. David Reich's videos about this interesting subject.
Nice videos it was really interesting. Hey when I got to 1.0 cM I got matches with Clovis Montana so does that mean I have Native American ancestry or just similar DNA, and I don’t live in America I’m from Australia. And if it’s is accurate I got Amerindian in some of my results and in my chromosome painting
Similar DNA, but at 1cM there are lots of people all over the world that share that much DNA, just by chance alone.
yes
Yay.
I have 1Cm of Kennewick on the third chromosome.
Way cool.
How do i compare my DNA to an ancient DNA?
Follow the instructions in the video.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics lol I tried to but it kinda didn't work since the ancient dna site looks different now but I found another way of doing it. Thx
Do resesrch on the areas you match in to see the migration pattern of how you might match.
@@sr2291 yeah I already did some research! I'm middle eastern with a little bit of Greek (30%) and central asian because of migration from these areas that happened 800-1000 years ago lol.
I match with Kennewick man. I’m mostly Mexican and Scottish
The words "ancient humans" usually mean "not really humans".
Waves of migrating Celtic peoples from the 8th century BC onward had settled heavily in northern and central Spain, penetrating Portugal and Galicia, but left the indigenous Iberian people of the south and east intact.Apr 2, 2020
THE IRISH-SPANISH CONNECTION
And later "Why did the Irish go to Spain?
Image result for did irish people moved to spain
Many Irishmen in rebellion against English rule subsequently sought refuge in Spain following the Flight of the Earls (1607), and for the next two centuries Irish soldiers contributed to Spanish Army of Flanders and fought side by side during the Dutch Revolts and during the Thirty Years' War."
Thanks for sharing your insights.
ALL humans are related. The question is "are you DESCENDED from specific ancient humans?".
Pretty sure we all are, unless you're not telling us something! :D
Maybe Mr Clovis was born in Siberia and walked all the way to Montana. After all, we know where all these people, like Otzi, died, but we don't know where they were born. (only if they are babies)
It's possible, but we don't know what happened.
The latest theory, that is backed by genetic and other evidence, is that Native Americans descend from Ancient Beringians, who had lived on the large land bridge between Siberia and Alaska during the Ice ages. They could not migrate further south into North America until about 15,000 years ago, due to large ice sheets, but it's theorized that some migrated via coastal routes. The Ancient Beringians were descended from various groups in Siberia who migrated there and intermixed. These groups were descended from the "Ancient North Eurasians" (whose descendants also migrated into Western Eurasia later on) and people related to Ust-Ishim man (who shares about 40% of his genes with modern East Asians and Oceanians). Hence, East Asians today would share chunks of DNA with Ust-Ishim, some ancient Russians, and Clovis man. All of these people share genes with the first early modern humans who had migrated into East Asia.
Is 2 centimorgans noise?
Most likely
I share a 7 Cm match with NEI Hungary 7.2k
i have clovis and ust ishim and zero native american ancestry, BUT im paternal haplogroup Q which according to FTDNA has a south asian origin, so im probably related to the ancestors of the native americans
I am primarily of Southern Han Chinese descent with all my 'known' (one unknown) grandparents being Chinese. However, at 2 cM, I found huge distinct bands of Clovis, Montana, Ust-Ishim, Siberia, RISE493, Russia and RISE497 Russia (where 70 to 90% of the 22 segments have bands in them). I'm not sure what this tells me so I was hoping you could help me. Thank you.
Your question was answered in this live video ruclips.net/video/aVQazfmioCo/видео.html about at the 17:00 mark (until we cut off the first 10 minutes.
Interesting.
I've been doing my family ancestry by paper and I found a native American ancestor in Virginia in the 1600s, I summited my dna through 23andme and gedmatch, it shows I have a amerindian, oceania or east asian percentages in most eurogenes calculators except the k36 but when I look at the archaic dna there was no clovis or kennewick on the list, the ancient populations listed were all European, middle eastern and mid or northern Russia
There is no guarantee that you'll receive DNA from the ancient ancestors. That's the nature of genetic inheritance.
Most of my ancient DNA is neanderthal lol. I was also 93% more neanderthal variants than most 23 & me customers.
That's a great club to be in. Are you excited?
I have 3 matches at 7 Stuttgart, 45000 Siberia and Montana.
Not possible since the earth is only 6,000-10,000 years old. smh. This has been proven through science. Carbon dating is highly unpredictable.
Aren't we all related to ancient humans. SMDH.
So what I learned is that if you're from Africa or Asia gedmatch is useless. Thank you sir, could've told us earlier instead of wasting 9minutes. 👍
