^^Well, I'd say it's clear that the Gedrosia K3 doesn't work at all, and the others are a bit all over the place.
MTA seems to be extremely close in structure to Eurogenes K15 and in both of them the distances for northern Europeans are good, but not for southern Europeans. Now, someone could say that maybe that's just because northerners are more homogenized and have been subject to fewer population movements.
However, if that is the case, why does the K13 produce closer distances for Southern Europeans. I thought it was acknowledged even by Eurogenes fans that it's a "better" calculator.
Then there's the issue raised by Jovialis that the PCAs based on the Dodecad calculators are closer to the academic models. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but at least with academics there are enough honest ones around checking the complete data sets and algorithms provided that I have more confidence in them.
So, until further notice I'll stick with the dodecad based ones.
Btw, I remember getting the closest distances with K7. Does anyone have a link to the post where the coordinates are posted? I seem to have misplaced them. I don't think they're available for the Thracians etc.
