... even though I ran it with all the Post #6 samples, my results are the same as an older ran, singles included ... could be that the first non “R” (a Mycenaean) is in the yellow zone,

.. and as I was told multiple times a while ago: “after five, the results are not that relevant, (too far)”, ...though I’m not convinced yet, ... there are samples with a strong chromosome presence, but are way down in the list.

LOL :)

I recently read somewhere, that the size of the skull and the head in general, has been slowly shrinking starting about 2000 years ago, ... true!

... that explains my Huge Melon, ... my head is perfect and modern people’s heads are small :grin:

:thinking:
Contemporary man uses less and less of his cranial capacity. So, I think our head will going smaller. Most of our contemporaries have very large bellies and, a few, have big muscles. In common the paunchy and muscular ones have in a smaller head. :shocked:

Salento: What I get from your post 32 and 33 in addition to being very, very, very close to the C6 mostly and some C5 Ancient Roman clusters is that your 3 DNA tests all converge closely together. That is pretty good. I may get around to doing another one than what I have done (Ancestry and NATGENO) and I will get around to the Big Y eventually that you and Duarte recommended.

although my Posts seem repetitive and confusing,
I thought it was fair to show how the Combined and Average Kits came to be :)

I've been waiting a long time for the price of “Whole Genome Sequencing” raw-data to go down, ...but it keeps getting more expensive instead, lol

Ancient Rome: A genetic crossroads of Europe and the Mediterranean - Paper free for all at Stanford University:

https://web.stanford.edu/group/pritchardlab/publications/Antonio19.pdf

The following extract of text describes the Iron Age and Roman Republic.

The Iron Age individuals exhibit highly var- iable ancestries, hinting at multiple sources of migration into the region during this period (Figs. 2A and 3B). Although we were able to model eight of the 11 individuals as two-way mixtures of Copper Age central Italians and a Steppe-related population (~24 to 38%) using qpAdm, this model was rejected for the other three individuals (p < 0.001; table S16). Instead, two individuals from Latin sites (R437 and R850) can be modeled as a mixture between local people and an ancient Near Eastern population (best approximated by Bronze Age Armenian or Iron Age Anatolian; tables S17 and S18). An Etruscan individual (R475) carries significant African ancestry identified by f-statistics (|Z-score|>3; fig. S23) and can be modeled with ~53% ancestry from Late Neolithic Moroccan (table S19). Together these results suggest substantial genetic heteroge- neity within the Etruscan (n = 3 individuals) and Latin (n = 6) groups. However, using f-statistics, we did not find significant genetic differentiation between the Etruscans and Latins in allele sharing with any preceding or contemporaneous population (|Z-score|<2), although the power to detect subtle genetic differentiation is limited by the small sam- ple size.
In contrast to prehistoric individuals, the Iron Age individuals genetically resemble modern European and Mediterranean individuals, and display diverse ancestries as central Italy becomes increasingly connected to distant com- munities through new networks of trade, colo- nization, and conflict (3, 6)’.

Iron Age Latin R437 - data from Post #6

if you’re close to it:

cut R437 from SOURCE and paste it on TARGET,
Add your coordinates on SOURCE,

optional (aggregate) add C_2020: in front of your coordinates.

:thinking: T_2020: would do it too :)

Ancient Rome: A genetic crossroads of Europe and the Mediterranean - Paper free for all at Stanford University:


"Instead, two individuals from Latin sites (R437 and R850) can be modeled as a mixture between local people and an ancient Near Eastern population (best approximated by Bronze Age Armenian or Iron Age Anatolian; tables S17 and S18). An Etruscan individual (R475) car- ries significant African ancestry identified by f-statistics (|Z-score|>3; fig. S23) and can be modeled with ~53% ancestry from Late Neolithic Moroccan (table S19)"

Well, African is a too generic a term in genetics, given the difference that exists between North Africa and the rest of Africa, and Late Neolithic Moroccan is quite different from Early Neolithic North Africa. Using Late Neolithic Moroccan to model R475 is just wrong because Late Neolithic Moroccan does have a strong Iberian component (EEF and WHG), therefore ~53% ancestry from Late Neolithic Moroccan doesn't most likely equal 53% ancestry from Iron Age North Africa. The main problem is that the Phoenicians/Punics analyzed so far are from Sardinia and Baleares and are very different from Cananites, and even different from modern North Africans, as if Phoenicians/Punics had massively assimilated both Iberians and Nuragics in their ethnos. Out of curiosity now I check R437 and R850, since I never did it.


"However, Late Neolithic individuals from North Africa are admixed, with a North African and a European component. Our results support the idea that the Neolithization of North Africa involved both the development of Epipaleolithic communities and the migration of people from Europe.(...) Early Neolithic Moroccans are distantly related to Levantine Natufian hunter-gatherers (∼9,000 BCE) and Pre-Pottery Neolithic farmers (∼6,500 BCE). Late Neolithic (∼3,000 BCE) Moroccans, in contrast, share an Iberian component, supporting theories of trans-Gibraltar gene flow and indicating that Neolithization of North Africa involved both the movement of ideas and people. Lastly, the southern Iberian Early Neolithic samples share the same genetic composition as the Cardial Mediterranean Neolithic culture that reached Iberia ∼5,500 BCE. The cultural and genetic similarities between Iberian and North African Neolithic traditions further reinforce the model of an Iberian migration into the Maghreb."

Late Neolithic (∼3,000 BCE) Moroccans, in contrast, share an Iberian component, supporting theories of trans-Gibraltar gene flow and indicating that Neolithization of North Africa involved both the movement of ideas and people. Lastly, the southern Iberian Early Neolithic samples share the same genetic composition as the Cardial Mediterranean Neolithic culture that reached Iberia ∼5,500 BCE. The cultural and genetic similarities between Iberian and North African Neolithic traditions further reinforce the model of an Iberian migration into the Maghreb."

Thanks for the clarification Pax. Very useful for understanding the facts. Cheers :)
 
@Pax
I can’t tell if you were analyzing R437 and R850 too.

... it says that R437 and R850 are Italics (local people) and are Eastern shifted, ... no Iberia, nor North Africa.
