Never been on anthrofora.My apologies for assuming. In my defense, we still get refugees from racist anthrofora, although it has slowed down considerably.
Perhaps it was up thread, but I didn't see the entire 23andme run down. Could you post or re-post it. I ask because I've never seen a half Italian get virtually no Italian in 23andme.
I have posted on the Apricity, and deeply loathe that horrid site.
I'm indeed more or less half Italian, from northern Italy dating to the Roman Era.
23andMe (and others) ascribe that to the "Ashkenazi Jewish" ethnic group and are disregardful of my Italian roots.
I attribute that to middle eastern politics and religious divisiveness.
I understand that ALL autosomal testing sites play this game.
I don't like it at all.
I have to go to an amateurish site, (GEDmatch) to load my raw data, to try and get some reasonable computations of my ACTUAL ethnic breakdown.
My Italian scores on most tests exceed many people that are "full Italians" on sites like 23andMe.
Here is my data from 23andMe, Angela.
Ashkenazi Jewish 73.5%
British and Irish (UK) 11.8%
Italian 0.4%
Balkan 0.2%
Iberian 0.1%
Broadly North West European 5.4%
Broadly southern European 3.4%
Broadly European 2.7%
West Asian and North African 2.2%
North African/Arabian 0.9%
Broadly west Asian and North African 1.0%
Unassigned 0.3%
