When I look at Eupedia maps of Gedrosian admixture and then of Cacuasian admixture, I can see that they show high Caucasian admixture in places with low Gedrosian admixture, and high Gedrosian admixture in places with low Caucasian admixture.
I'm wondering if it is not just some kind of error, because here user Kurd explains, that it is practically the same thing:

So perhaps calculators which distinguish Caucasian from Gedrosian, differentiate between them in very strange ways, and assign to some populations only Gedrosian, while to some populations only Caucasian, while in fact both have the same ancient origin.
Perhaps this should be counted as one and the same admixture, just like Kurd did in his Eurasia K20 calculator.
How would an admixture map counting Caucasian+Gedrosian as the same thing look like ???

3- You will notice that Caucasus/Gedrosia is a single component. This is due to the fact that Caucasus and Gedrosia are not very differentiated signals, and I did not take extra measures to attempt to separate them.
