View Full Version : Share your MyHeritage DNA Ethnicity Estimates
In 2017 I started a thread encouraging users to share their 23andMe Ancestry Composition (https://www.eupedia.com/forum/threads/33825-Share-your-23andMe-Ancestry-Composition) to get a better idea of what each admixture corresponds to. This resulted in the making of distribution maps for each European admixture (https://www.eupedia.com/europe/autosomal_maps_dodecad.shtml#23andMe). I would now like to do the same for MyHeritage DNA customers.
Please only share your results if all your ancestors come from the same country! Kindly also mention your ancestral region(s) within that country so that results can be classify more accurately.
I got an estimate of ethnicity from MyHeritage obtained by uploading the raw data of 23andme on their calculator: is it useful?
In any case these are my results (family roots from Italy= Eastern Emilia/Romagna):
- Southern Europe 87,2% (Italian 75,2% + Iberian 12%)
- Northern and Western Europe 10,8%
- Ashkenazi Jewish 2%
(It's the only calculator that gives me back some jewish lineage, although my family hasn't those origins)

You would think that My Heritage, based as it is in Israel, would be more accurate when it came to assigning Jewish genes to Italians.
Italians and Jews share certain genes.
You would think Italians are all partly Ashkenazi or Sephardi if you trusted My Heritage's algorithm.
Middle Eastern 44.5%
Yemenite Jewish 27.3%
North African 22.4%
Ashkenazi Jewish 3.5%
Somali 1.4%
Melanesian 0.9%
--------------------------------
I hope this is not supposed to be an estimation of recent ancestry, because if it is, then it is quite ridiculous, I don't have Yemeni Jewish ancestors, nor Ashkenazi, nor North African.
And aren't Yemeni Jews Middle Eastern? why do they have a separate category?

Well, not all the Italians score Ashkenazi or Sephardi on My Heritage. And maybe it's the opposite, being based in Israel, My Heritage could tend to overstimate Jewish ancestry. For example LivingDNA is based in Great Britain and tend to overstimate British ancestry in non-British people.

I definitely agree with you that My Heritage does overestimate Jewish ancestry.

I know right?? In fact, aren't Yemeni Jews Bedouin like? It's insane to put them apart from other middle easterners.
This calculator has ways to go

I agree it makes no sense that I get ZERO, I am curious what is the reference population they use for Italy.

I am curious to know as well, I doubt MyHeritage uses Southern Italians in their reference population for Italy, I have several matches that score zero Italian like me or lower than 10%.
Does it make a difference buying the MyHeritage Kit vs uploading 3rd parties RawData ?
Has anybody tried and compared both Results ?

Yeah you scored nothing in that category, strangely. You're more Sardinian than italian by this test.
Regarding what Pax Augusta said, it seems more suitable for Jewish people, everybody seems to score relatively high Sephardim or Ashkenazi in this test

I’m heeeariiiing, that for MyHeritage most Apulians are the “Children of Leonidas of Sparta”. lol (Greekish)
Something it ain’t right with their Results. (ain’t lol). :)

Could it be also the other way around that myheritage confuses Jewish dna with Italian dna? because i get 23 percent Italian and 1 percent Sardinian dna, although we do not know of Italian ancestry in our family, only German, Jewish and Russian. This is more reflected in certain calculators on gedmatch but not on myheritage. Also on gedmatch i dont have so much Eastern European dna. Im new to dna and dont understand why there are so many different results.
anyway here are my results from myheritage:
Eastern Europe: 42,2 %
North and Westeurope: 33,5 %
Italian: 23,1 %
Sardinian 1,2 %
I heard that Ashkenazi Jewish and Italian or even Greek dna is very close.
Wouldnt it then make more sense to call this dna simply "Mediterranean" instead of Italian or Jewish?
my brother (same father, same mother) made a test on ftdna and we transfered it to myheritage to see the difference. its so different.
my brother gets:
North and Westeurope 45 %
England 5 %
Finnland 3,9 %
Balkan 22,6 %
Eastern Europe 21,3 %
Iberian 2,2 %
how can this be explained? it seems to me that the calculators cant really identify our mediterranean dna with certainty.
myheritage gives me:
Europe 100%
North & West Europe 98.2%
English 54.6%
Scandinavian 27.8%
Irish, Scots and Welsh 12.8%
Finnish 3%
Southern Europe, Italian 1.8%
I don't understand why they have given me 27.8% Scandinavian. I only get <1% on ancestry and <2% on ftdna.

One of the things that surprised me most is the difference in my American components. I believe that the Central American population considered in My Heritage is mestizo, so it does not only contain Native American components, but also European and African ones, which could alter certain percentages. I believe that to be more useful, the American populations considered should only be native .
All right, I uploaded my 23andMe data to MyHeritage. And this is what I got. North and West Europe 67.8% (Irish Scottish and Welsh 27.7%, Scandinavian 25.5%, English 14.6%). South Europe 19.7% (Iberian 10.5%, Greek 9.2%). Balkan 12.5%. DOES THIS GUY LOOK 25% SCANDINAVIAN?!?!?!10419

These are my results. I uploaded my 23andme raw data nearly a year ago, but now I guess they were able to convert the V5 version to be compatible with their calculator.
Clearly their centrum for "Italian" is more northern, and the rest I get is probably pulled towards "Greek" from that centrum. Personally, I think the current version of AncestryDNA may be best for southern Italians. Considering they have sub-populations dedicated to specific southern Italian regions.

MyHeritage assigns results similar to yours to almost all Apulians.
I presumed that the results I saw came from the old free-upload.
I would like to know if paying for the test increases the quality of the results.

As Pugliesi Jovialis and I, both get 79% Italian, and Puglia as the Region on AncestryDNA, and others too.
Regionally speaking, I was saying that imo, MyHeritage has gaps in the Genetic Map of the IT Peninsula.
I didn't Test with MyHeritage, because I've seen other results of people of my region, and I immediately understood that this company it’s not completely up to speed (yet).

The North African result is interesting. I often don't think the MyHeritage results make complete sense, but in this case, there is the Moorish incursion into Provence and the neighboring mountains to consider.
See:
https://www.history.ubc.ca/sites/default/files/users/cbooker/docs/Ballan_Fraxinetum.pdf
However, from what I've seen these kinds of short lived incursions rarely have much lasting influence, so maybe, on balance, it's just an artifact of their algorithm.

It's probably just that (an artifact of their algorithm), as my mother doesn't get any North Africa with Gedmatch calculators or on FTDNA. Interestingly though, she has a Mtdna exact match (genetic distance: 0) who's Libyan.

I compared the results, the suggested list of genetic relatives, and finally, the reason I decided today to post about my results, since yesterday a new feature MyHeritage added, the "auto cluster analysis".
It took about 16 hours to have the results calculated and sent into my e mail as a zip. I think it is a new interesting feature My Heritage just added and I was surprised to have it available as my account is a free one.10851

I thought it was interesting, because it shows the centrum includes southern Italy, in the name. Which means the Greek component is probably Peloponnesian-to-cretan-like. I think the Greeks that went to southern Italy probably remained like that. But perhaps even the Iapygians were somewhat similar genetically, idk without ancient DNA. The "Italian" component is Tuscan-like, maybe TSI. To me, this shows two components that are indigenous to Puglia since ancient times. Both of which are components that are appropriate for a modern Italian from the region of Bari.
@Jovialis
Ops. Sorry. I was focused in the numbers, and didn't notice that the labels changed.
MyHeritage should Invest much more resources on Autosomal Results.
If Ancestry and 23andme can distinguish a Pugliese from a Calabrese or an Abruzzese, how is it that MyHeritage can’t even pinpoint a South Italian.

I guess the complaint should also apply to “Iberia”, no distinctions between Spaniards and Portuguese.

It is true. I totally agree with you. This is very frustrating on MyHeritage and FTDNA. LM Genetics made this distinction for me. I know that LM is based on Eurogenes and nMonte 3, which a lot of people criticize. But for me it was the only one that made distinctions between regions of Portugal and between Portugal and Spain.

Thanks for posting those descriptions. I'd give you an up-vote, but it doesn't seem possible on this thread.
It is funny how some people either try to say that Southern Italians, are less Italian or they deny the concept of ethnicity. When in fact I have two genetic components that have been in Italy, thousands of years.

Yes, I don't know (I'm no expert, just a newbie). I don't understand why some have it, and some don't. I have relatively close matches from Campania who don't show Sefardic ancestry on MH but who show Middle Eastern instead, or just North African but not Sephardic. And all from the same family. I guess it just shows that MH is not reliable at all?
Is there anybody heard similar things?
or:
The genetic makeup of an ethnicity is made up by the ratio of various ancient populations.
The company decides which numerical ratio is to be assigned to every ethnicity (Ethnic Average).
If the value/number of a population is a bit higher of the ethnic average, they’ll add the extra % of that population in the final results by itself.
It can also depends on how far back in time a Company does the test.
Bear in mind that over half the World's population, at one time or another, they were all in Asia Minor, most left, some didn’t or they didn’t go far. (Minestrone :)

probably there is also overlap with the middel eastern and north african to some extent
there is a woman from gozo malta who scored 14.5% sefhardic in my heritage so i think a mixture of north african+ middel eastern
and my heritage randomly chose Sephardi for her.....
p.s
any way after israel it is cyprus and than italy who score the highest % of this ethnicity in there map of countries according to my heritage ......

My ancestors on the paternal side are 100% Italian, and on the maternal side they are mixed, with Iberian ancestors, Native Americans and sub-Saharan Africa (and also an Italian ancestor). I am surprised by Irish, Scottish and Welsh ancestors ... I suppose they refer to distant Celtic ancestors and not to people of these modern nationalities. And it seems to me a mistake to include the Central American population, since being a population with origin in three races, it confuses more than clarifies the origins of a person.

These ethnicity estimates should never be taken seriously. Any company, not only MH.
mine :
greek - 32.2%
italian - 3.5%
Ashkenazi jew-26% (paternal grandmother logic inline with every test or calculator i ever took )
eastern european - 5.3%
baltic - 2.2%
sefhardic jewish- north african -16.1%
middle eastern -9.8%
west asia -4.8%
I haven't taken My Heritage, so I can't address it directly, but I concur with Pax. We shouldn't be taking any of these too seriously.
I always use the adoptee test. If I were adopted and knew nothing about my ancestry, would it give me the correct information? 23andme has me as mainly Italian but with a hodgepodge of other ancestry, mostly Northwest European. Ancestry says I'm 45% French, which is ridiculous. Their own graphics make it clear. It's just that parts of northern Italy and parts of France and French Switzerland are similar.
So, they both fail.
if i was adoptee than i will find out i am quarter askenazi
and my heritage didn't fail here just like ftdna didnt who gave me the same %
as you said in other thread it is easy to see askenazi dna because of the bottleneck
if i was adoptee than i will find out i am quarter askenazi
and my heritage didn't fail here just like ftdna didnt who gave me the same %
as you said in other thread it is easy to see askenazi dna because of the bottleneck
You're right as far as the companies are concerned: both My Heritage and 23andme can tell you if you have Ashkenazi ancestry in genealogical time.
Ashkenazi ancestry is special in that way.
Eurogenes "J Test", on the other hand, is useless.
In short, depending on the situation, 23andMe + trio-phasing involving adopted, spouse and child could occasionally provide really good clues on the ancestry of the adopted person.
It's amazing how 23andMe refined my results with phasing, in these last versions. It got way less "confused", and assign me almost 90% of Italian ancestry, even my ancestry not being related to a more central position in the country.

myheritage is far superior in finding matches than any other company I tried.............as long as you stick by 2 rules that work for me
1 - a Medium Confidence indicator......minimum require, avoid the ones that state Low confidence
2 - have more than 1 segment matching, regardless of size
I have , apart from 4 family members........another 6 clear matches on paternal and maternal sides , which later I have found in BDM records

One of the many "weird things" on MyHeritage: the Nigerian component present in so many Southern Europeans. And continuing with the "strange things about Africa": my Sub-Saharan African component (1%) is...Kenyan! Given the history of the slave trade to the American continent, the most logical thing is that this component of mine originated in West Africa. Since, as we know, the genetic variation between African populations is enormous, the error is not small...

most likely because the kingdoms of Nigeria and Congo where selling african slaves ( captured in their yearly african raids ) to the white slave traders to take to the Americas ..............it was a lucrative trade business for these African kingdoms
The eastern african side, was dominated by the Arab slave traders in the area of Tanzania and zanzibar

there was a lot of Germans that also went to Brazil ( representing NW europe )
The first German immigrants to settle in Brazil were 165 families who settled in Ilhéus, Bahia, in 1818. One year later, 200 families settled São Jorge
Between 1824 and 1972, about 260,000 Germans settled in Brazil,

Well her maternal grandfather came from L' Aquila (Rocca di Mezzo) and her maternal grandmother came from Calabria (Terranova da Sibari). I would think that she would actually have a lot less North Africa and Nigeria and Ashkenazi Jew Heritage. Both of her maternal grandparents came from small villages not from large cosmopolitan cities. There was more inbreeding than crossbreeding. Here is her Ancestry DNA heritage:
England & Northwestern Europe 34%
Southern Italy 28%
Northern Italy 18%
Scotland 16%
Spain 2%
Aegean Islands 2%
Now that is a lot more reflective of her actual heritage, don't you think?

If the reference populations are reverified to have lived in the area for at least 3-4 generations I think they will be OK. If their reference populations are from current populations without taking into account recent migrations then it will be misleading. I think Ancestry chose their reference populations more carefully.
