I would like to inform people here that are interested in getting more accurate dna results, that you guys are in luck & you should try to get your G25 cords by sending your request and autosomal genotype data (from either AncestryDNA, FTDNA, LivingDNA, MyHeritage, 23andMe etc.) to eurogenesblog@gmail.com & also send money via PayPal to the same e-mail address" (current price is $12 USD). Once you get your G25 cords you can access more information here in this thread or one can head on directly to Eurogenes Blog: Getting the most out of the Global25 where you'll be able to get better updated results for free, exclusive of the initial 12$ spent on getting the cords.

I will assist where necessary, if you do get your G25 cords please copy & paste it in this thread & inform me of the continent you're currently residing in & I'll do several models based on language, country, region & ancestry, while adding individuals & also giving you guys distances between each other to gage how close you are in comparison. I'm also willing to do some special requests... If the task will need assistance I'll be glad to reach out to more people who'll lend a hand in the process.

What you should expect.

G25 cords: expect scaled or unscaled but they'll generally look like this. Your name/country or region,-0.604401,0.060932,0.013576,0.010982,-0.006155,0.00251,-0.00987,0.012692,0.002659,-0.020046,-0.007632,0.015436,-0.032111,-0.002064,-0.028094,0.016309,-0.019427,-0.000507,-0.006159,0,-0.000998,0.004822,0.005423,-0.001928,-0.002275

Results: depends on the model
Distance will look like this

Ancestry will look like this

Global or regional model results will look like this

In each case I'll be interpreting the results further to elaborate more on them.

Nice, I'll be waiting for your cords, if you don't mind I'll introduce you to genealogy sites that go deeper in this regard if you're interested in Anthropology.

I can also turn your AncestryDNA, FTDNA, LivingDNA, MyHeritage/cords into a 23&me model if you'd like. But the layout will be like the models I've shown above & not the usual 23&me layout.

I have some Kenyan references, Kikuyus, Luo, Luhya, Mijikenda, Maasai, Kenyan Somalis, Samburu_elmolo, Kalenjins, Rendilles, that will interest you.

If you'd like a Kenyan in depth ancestry analysis I'll send it to you. With your distance & everything to show you, your exact ancestry.

That would be awesome, thank you so much and I’d love links to the sites you’ve mentioned as well! I’ll let you know as soon as I receive the cords

What makes this different from all those models on gedmatch? They have a lot of different African and euro models. And gedmatch is free. I just think a lot of those models are bs.

Well these nmonte runs will give you a wider range of autosomal analysis... & you'll even be plotted accurately much like a research article.

Not yet :( but I think I should have them by the end of the day today, I received an email last night saying it would take about a day.

I'll be waiting for it & there is an African project that I'll send a request for you to be added on.

{Sudanese= Pristine East African/Nilo-saharan
Yoruba= Pristine West African/Niger-Congo.
Levant_Natufian= Neolithic Middle East.
ZAF_2000BP= Pristine South African/Khoisan}

The other outliers might be signals for some admixtures that's getting picked up

I've done several other runs from random African samples to Kenyan samples to try & see how your admixtures can be profiled.

Wow, this is interesting, thank you! I wasn't expecting the Sudanese to be that high, is this more or less the same for other Kikuyus and would the middle east part be connected to that? When I took the 23andme test I thought I'd see some hunter-gatherer show up but it didn't so I'm excited to see it here!

More runs, but these runs won't be as reliable as the first one I sent. K= source population.

K=58 modern African samples used as the source population.
Screenshot_20210319_160705.jpg


At K= 58 your source population is picked up as being made up of South Eastern bantus, East African bantus, North East Africans & North Africans.

K= 32 samples
Screenshot_20210319_161019.jpg


At K= 32, I've removed North Africans, your sub saharan references are picked up by New groups like the Tanzanian hunter gatherers & west Africans, but you're mostly confined to East Africa as it's expected.

K=20 Samples
Screenshot_20210319_161126.jpg


At K=20 I've further removed Ethiopians except Wolyta. Nothing has changed here, majorly east African with 10% from West Africa.

K= 13 Samples
Screenshot_20210319_161257.jpg


At K=13, no more Ethiopians as a reference, & central-west Africans are left out since your sample wasn't picking them up except the yoruba. Still no drastic shifts.

K= 11 Samples
Screenshot_20210319_161409.jpg


At K=11 I've only left Kenyans & Tanzanians, surprisingly you're picking up more Luo than Kikuyu as a source population? Do you have any recent western Kenyan relatives?

K= 8 Samples
Screenshot_20210319_161539.jpg


At K= 8 I'm only using Kenyan samples yet you're still preferring Luo over Kikuyu? Your heavy nilotic admixture can be as a result of mixing directly with neighboring nilotes such as the Kalenjin_Ogiek & Maasai, or through an intermediate group like the Meru, embu, Kamba...

That's amazing, I'm shocked! I've never heard of Luo or western ancestors recent or distant. Maasai, yes, on both sides and I discovered an ancestor on my mom's side recently that was either Meru or Embu. Kamba too is a possibility but I can't pinpoint yet who that would've come from. I was definitely expecting some Nilotic even in the 23andme results due to my family history and also bc most Kikuyus have this ancestry too - I didn't expect so much though. I also remember reading that Luos on average tend to have less Nilotic ancestry than Kikuyus so I'm doubly surprised that it's grouping me closer to Luos presumably bc of the high Nilotic

I really appreciate your help btw, this is so enlightening lol and I'd never have been able to dig this deep myself. Thank you!

Yes the middle eastern was picked up along with the Sudanese ancestry.

Well according to this K=39 world sources population calculator
Screenshot_20210319_171931.jpg


You're among the most Nilo-saharan shifting Kikuyus, but that's not what makes you stand out.
Screenshot_20210319_171859.jpg


I hope this isn't too much to ask but from your results you seem to be constantly picking up some significant Asian non middle-eastern in you, do you happen to have a distant Indian relative?

:bulgyeyes no, not too much to ask but if I do it's been long forgotten about, never heard any word of non-African ancestors at all so that's even more shocking. But that reminds me, I have a relative on 23andme - I don't have close relatives on there but he is one of the closest, it says he's a 3rd cousin - who had Asian come up in his results but it was very little so I thought it was inaccurate. He's Kikuyu too, I've pulled up his results again and it says he is 0.2% broadly Chinese & SE Asian and 0.1% broadly Central & South asian.

Also in the screenshots above which groups would fall under the "East Africa" category?

East_Africa would be, Horner Africans/Cushites/ethiosemetic.

Okay, got it. Who are they categorizing as South Semitic?

ETA: I found another relative w/ small amounts of Asian ancestry coming up on 23, I'd forgotten about her. She's also a 3rd cousin, hers says 0.1% broadly East Asian & Native American then another 0.1% is unassigned. So I guess it's real but quite far back

South semetic, Yemeni.

Wow that's intriguing, I'm of the opinion, most kikuyus that once lived close to the narrow gauge will have some minor Indian in them...

I feel like there is a good business opportunity here ;)

Well it'll take time & more members to build some capital from it, these models are all free thanks to Eurogenes, more harder models might need some incentive, since they're much more time consuming...

I've finally done the distances using 588 different modern ethnicities available. I'll try adding other ethnicities later on like the Tutsis, east coastal groups, Gambians, & Ghanaians in there later.

Your closest 25 ethnic groups
Screenshot_20210319_200349.jpg


By language.
Your closest Niger-Congo_Bantu Ethnicity beside Kikuyu is the Luhya community, closest Niger-Congo_NonBantu is the Fulani.
Your closest Khoisan group is the Sandawe from Tanzania.
Your closest Nilo-saharan ethnicity is the Bulala from Chad followed closely by the Kalenjin_sengwer.
Your closest Afro-Asiatic group is the chadic Mada followed closely by some Ethiopian Omotic speakers.

For comparison
You alongside other Kikuyu samples showing the closest 25 ethnic groups

I can show you more ethnicities if you'd like to increase the number for the output

Amazing! I'm guessing this is using a different Kikuyu sample than the previous one which I was favouring Luo over? I'm going to look into a couple of these groups that I've never heard of before. If you have any Meru, Embu and Kamba samples that would be cool to see too. Thank you!!

The samples are the same, this shows you distance between you & the ethnicities that are selected, while the other shows you your actual genetic admixture.

Obama is half Luo, half European, his closest ethnicities will be the ones that will appear to be just as admixed not Luo or European groups but more Latin American, African American, South African coloreds, Horn Africans... & such communities.

It's definitely informative but you shouldn't use it to disregard the singles run.

Okay, I'm thinking the Kikuyu "Ayodo 47k" would probably have the same admixture results then since their Nilo-Saharan especially is pretty close to mine. It seems like our history is even more complicated than I realized.

Yes he has an almost similar admixture profile yet if you're only considering the distance you're closer to Kikuyu 61K

Finally, Angoliga has plotted you in the African PCA run.

This plot shows you exactly where you plot in comparison to other African communities & individuals. Think of it as a more advanced & descriptive model of the distances I showed you earlier but now you can see how close you are to these other ethnicities.

There are 3 regions coded by different colors.
Red - South Africa.
Green - Tropical Africa.
Pink - North Africa.

A zoom in.

From this 2d PCA run you can interpret your ancestry results, if you need any assistance interpreting the results you can point them out.

So cool, thank you! I guess all of this means then that 23andme is categorizing some Nilotic ancestry under Congolese/SE African... I had assumed they were referring to Bantu/Niger-Congo exclusively cuz that's the group they describe when you click on the section, I thought they were placing Nilotic under Sudanese. I'm actually really surprised by what this deeper look has revealed, it's not at all what I expected but I'm fascinated.

Well I remember I have yet to see your 23&me at 100% confidence.

Different commercial dna testing companies need different labels, & references to interpret their information to their customers, Sudanese is just as vague as South eastern bantu, they are regions & nationalities not ethnicities, the references for south east/Kenya is usually Luhya which as you saw above aren't pristine Niger-Congo since they owe about 40% of their ancestry on average to Nilo-saharans.

Oh okay, this calculator is definitely worth doing then.

These are my results at the default 50% confidence

And at 90%

Anymore G25 requests? If one prefers to keep their privacy they can inbox me directly, if you don't mind I can share your results here anonymously, once you get your cords please share with me via the comment section or inbox so that I can interpret them here...

Yes the middle eastern was picked up along with the Sudanese ancestry.

Well according to this K=39 world sources population calculator View attachment 2407887

You're among the most Nilo-saharan shifting Kikuyus, but that's not what makes you stand out. View attachment 2407888

I hope this isn't too much to ask but from your results you seem to be constantly picking up some significant Asian non middle-eastern in you, do you happen to have a distant Indian relative?
surely these are assimilated groups into the wider Kikuyu identity.Kikuyus such as Uhuru Kenyatta? do you think their nilo saharan component would be that large?

I would think his results would be similar, his family is from the same area as mine and he has recent Maasai ancestry through his great grandmother

Unless we get over a 100 random Kikuyu samples, & check their uniparentals it's hard to deduce whether they're assimilated or admixed people.

Most of the Kikuyu women were probably assimilated thanks to the Kikuyu polyamorous nature but the men overwhelmingly bear ydna E-M2 which suggests they're Bantus/Niger-Congo who're heavily nilotic & cushitic admixed thanks to mostly polygyny.

Wouldnt the language alone already suggest that? ancient migrations were no joke, if you had a random language shift chances are you got conquered or are the conquerors descendant.

Huge update for those who're interested in getting their G25 cords.

Eurogenes will not be accessible until July, so don't send your money through PayPal to the email account until David reopens his services. I'll gather enough information & keep you guys posted if anything comes up.

For people who still want to get their G25 cords, there is a kind of partnership between David, in fact there's no formal relationship yet, but he does provide G25 cords via this different source but it's going to be more expensive at 25 € & will take longer Home | illustrative dna. also you'll have to use a different payment method, not PayPal. They do however give you an analysis.

One can register to that site & follow the whole process or wait until July to get the cords directly from David.
