MDLP K11c

MDLP K11c (ModernAncient) is an 11-component admixture calculator designed to decompose an individual or sample’s genome into proportions drawn from modern and ancient-informed reference groups. It models ancestry using eleven components—WHG, Saami, Siberian, EHG, Neolithic, SHG, Onge, Papuan, Mota, African, and Melanesian—providing a layered view that spans European hunter‑gatherers and farmers, circumpolar and Siberian influences, South and Southeast Asian island components, and African lineages anchored by ancient and modern references.

Who it’s for: the calculator is intended for population geneticists, genetic genealogy enthusiasts, archaeogenetic researchers, and curious individuals who want a nuanced picture of their deep and recent ancestry. It is especially useful when exploring European and northern Eurasian admixture patterns, interactions between Stone Age groups and Neolithic farmers, and traces of Asian, Oceanian, or African gene flow in modern populations.

What you learn: outputs give proportional contributions from each reference group, highlighting signals such as Western and Eastern Hunter‑Gatherer ancestry, Neolithic farmer input, Saami or Siberian affinities, and non‑European components (Onge, Papuan, Melanesian, Mota/African). By comparing component balances you can infer likely admixture events, relative timing (ancient vs more recent inflows), and affinities to regional populations or archaeological cultures.

Context and value: built on allele‑frequency contrasts informed by ancient genomes and modern proxies, MDLP K11c connects genetic variation to known prehistoric migrations—hunter‑gatherer persistence, Neolithic expansion, Siberian and Arctic gene flow, and trans‑oceanic or African signals. It offers a practical, interpretable framework to explore ancestry while acknowledging limits: component labels are model constructs sensitive to reference choice and genetic drift; results are proportions of modeled sources, not precise genealogical
