gencove UPDATE! 01/2018 with new clusters FTDNAb_37_concatenated / FTDNAb_37_autos

"sardinians are too drifted" what does that even mean? sardinians are isolated maybe too isolated hence retaining a strong neolithic affinity/continuity thus they are a good indicator of shared drift with original populations; the fact that no one scores sardinian on 23andme and sards themselves...

castellanza/parabiago with centers legnano/canegrate in lombardia/po-valley as for the rest, presumably; my case the 3pop-approx along with these @good-distances 2 54.2% German (Germany) + 45.8% Italian (Tuscany) @ 2.25 13 67.3% Italian (Bergamo) +...

practically diffused between the two clusters east med(levantine) and west med(south europe)+ sardinian on their own; at myHeritage i get ~33% italian and 7.9% greek and at K29 it is all 37% greek-albanian but these are two different calculators with different definitions and clusters and kurd...
