MyTrueAncestry - closest modern countries to ancient ethnicities

[torzio]

I don't want to paste the long list of my ancient population and deep dive matches but my closest ancient populations turn out to be Visigoths and Illyrians. The latter match is based on skeletal remains dated to around 1600BC and found in present day Croatia (specifically the Veliki Vanik burial at Vrgorac). To label this genetic match Illyrian is contentious - from what I have read, Illyrians turn up for the first time in documented history much later, namely around the 6th century BC in the works of ancient Greeks. These people were considered to be barbarians and there's no consensus these people merged into a single ethnic entity; rather they seem to have been quite heterogeneous and didn't refer to themselves as Illyrian. Tentative evidence from archaeological experts suggests settlement in the Balkans of nomadic Indo-European peoples arriving during the Bronze Age from the steppe - especially around Dalmatia. But who these people were we don't know exactly and labelling the match Illyrian is pretty sloppy. I reckon, though can't be sure, that they would have originally come from Anatolia during the migration of early farmers across the southern routes of the Mediterranean - Greek sources also conjecture that Illyrians originally came from Anatolia.

not knowing that much about R1b .......( even though my mother line is from it )

it has been found in ancient illyrians as per the recent croatian paper
(POP17) is a Copper Age sample that is R1b-L23. The Croatian Copper Age ran approximately from 2900 to 2500 BCE,

and the Daunian sample ORD004 ( daunians are illyrians that went to Italy circa 1000BC )

but the main Illyrian marker for over 2000 years is G2a2 , found also in tyrol, north-italy, austria, slovenia, croatia, bosnia

which sample is your illyrian from croatia ......do you have an ID #

Thanks Hawk - so more related to the Bronze Age expansion rather than early farmer. Thanks for filling in an information gap!

Thanks for your helpful reply! I still find these archeogenetic matches quite confusing - but the specific samples for my Illyrian matches are 13313B and 13313C - there's no mention which haplogroups these particular samples carried. The genetic distance is also measured at 9.99 but matches with Visigothic Iberian, Late Roman Crytpa Balbi, Roman Empuries (Catalonia) and BA Mokrin Necropolis all feature lower genetic distance measures than these particulars Illyrian samples which MyTrueAncestry say I'm most related to. That seems incoherent to me!

Hello from Akritas!

This is my first post… so give me some slack 😁.

Im pontic-greek with three grandparents who hail from ancient grek city of Trapezos, Trebizond (Modern Trabzon, Black Sea).
I have a grandmother from eastern thrace.

My resultat are clearly anatolian; hittite, pontic with a lot of eastern mediterranean results; amorites, minoan, philistine.

I dont have a clue about the Hellenic-Roman results; pre roman settlers, slaves?

My Deep Dive results gave:
Hellenic Roman 38,9
Minoan 34,3
Hittite 10,2
Amorites 9,03
Roman 3,48
Ancient Greek 2,18

But feel free to analyze! I would appreciate any feedback.

- I have checked results from Greeks, Macedonians, Albanians, Serbians, Croatians and Bulgarians, but so far none have individual samples with a GD under 10, meaning either that the matching ancient population hasn't been tested yet or that no pre-medieval population corresponds to their modern admixture (a likely scenario in the Balkans considering the to the region in the Middle Ages).

550 AD is middle ages xD But I have gotten a 6.699 match (says top 100% match of all users) for Visigoth mixed Slav found in Girona 550 AD.
And this kind of brings up some questions from my side.
I have gotten 7.9% Iberian on MyHeritage which is also surprising, and this Visigoth on MyTrueAncestry is sort of connected maybe?
My known family tree is up to my greatgrandpa/mas (1900s) and all have -ić last names and Croat first names.

The antiquity test of the forum gave me Ostrogoths as the closest for late antiquity&middle ages at 11.129

The ancient relative thing on MyTrueAncestry also showed as my top match an Alemanni dude with 10.73cM in common.

As I said, my family tree knows no one that isn't a Croat. No any foreig nsounding last names or first names. So I found the Ibearian completely wtf, I feel I would have to know if I had 8% of it. It would be my greatgreatgrandpa/ma, but I have none any simmilar to it.

K13 model showed me to have 56.5 Slavic, 32.2 Paleo Balkan&Roman and 11.2 Germanic, and 0.1 Turkic.

So, I have
7.9% Iberian - MyHeritage
11.2% Germanic - K13
Closest match MyTrueAncestry - Visigoth mixed with Slav in Girona
Late antiquity closest - Ostrogoths

My match on the K13 is also Croat_South 3.007, then Croat_West 3.0386. Which is correct.
Most of my family comes from Western Herzegovina, 2 greatgrandmas from Dalmatia.

Interesting thing is that Dalmatia was inhabited by Goths and Alemanni tribes after Valens brought them over the Danube.
Is it plausible to believe I have Gothic blood from some remnant pockets of their movements?
I find it hard to believe I have Spanish or Portugues blood as MyHeritage claims. I got no North African or Irish results to go along with Iberian as modern Iberian residents get.

I don't want to paste the long list of my ancient population and deep dive matches but my closest ancient populations turn out to be Visigoths and Illyrians. The latter match is based on skeletal remains dated to around 1600BC and found in present day Croatia (specifically the Veliki Vanik burial at Vrgorac)..

My greatgrandma comes from Vrgorac and I got Visigoth as well. But not the same one :P
