Interested in hearing if any other Americans with old stock heritage had their family talk about their English roots? My own never did, only would bring up other groups that make up our background. Not sure if this is due to it being implied by knowing our family history or what.

Symbolic that the ash tree is experiencing such major dieback’s in most of Europe and North America. American chestnut and Elm are making a comeback through selective breeding and genetic modifications. Things that shouldn’t need to be done in the first place, bad management.

Is there a way to see the source pops used for the tools calculators on exploreyourdna?

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@CsfHighlan97034 What are the parameters that lead to a sample being labeled a specific region here?

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@maxaemand The liberal out and in group images ended up looking quite similar to each other.

@Alboin_ I don’t define genetically Germanic as being similar to Denmark_IA I define it as having ancestors from Germanic people. Even most southern Germans are majority Germanic.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

I don’t get the larp of people trying to say the Irish are Germanic when they have themselves a great history. The Irish are not very Germanic genetically.

[Ante D. Luvian @uncle_deluge]

Irish people are more genetically Germanic than most of Germany

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@Alboin_ Being close to them on a heat map does not make one Germanic. That just shows they have similar ratios of WSH/ANF/WHG. The map I showed you that’s qpadm is showing actual Germanic ancestry, it’s not a heat map like the quoted post.

@CsfHighlan97034 Mix of north and south Wales?

Crazy to me that there are people who don’t believe in any sort of god or godlike religious figure(s). Can’t see how their logic can make any sense. Gnostic atheist or agnostic atheist what logic leads to you having such positions?

@TheKeepers127 If you want to compare her to a model similar to the one I used here you can use a bronze age calc on exploreyourdna.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

Rathlin Bell Beakers from Ireland vs modern Irish, amazing how similar they are.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@Bernhar07029947 @FortressLugh Calling them proto Norwegian wouldn’t work well. Norwegians are majority CW directly with later contributions from insular celts which would tie them with the Irish but that’s not their majority ancestry.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@Bernhar07029947 @FortressLugh You can easily call them proto Irish

Insane how different life is for young people now vs just a few decades ago. Meeting people and having to figure out what corner of the internet serves as their cultural backbone.

@maxaemand Are you still on the milk only diet?

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@TheWesternRH The only Swiss ancestry I’ve found in my tree is pretty far back and they moved around a bit within Europe, from Switzerland to Germany and then to the US in the 1700’s.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@Celtiberoca These are just the CL samples but I think they did the same model update for the SZ ones

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

I think one of the most interesting parts of this study is the connection they found of long IBD segments shared with IA-NC individuals that are very far from eachother.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

This study can be misconstrued as southern Germans having decent amounts of Italian ancestry but it’s not what it’s saying or changing what we know already about southern German genetics.

[Australopithecus @AUSTRALFrog]

@Celtiberoca The ones mentioned about with the IBD are just north Central European SZ 8, 13, and 14. Also I don’t think they kept the IBS label when they redid the study with a better model, not sure if Iberians included in the medeu label
