Ancient Mediterranean Civilizations K52 with Jewish Populations
Ancient Mediterranean Civilizations K52 estimates deep ancestral affinities by comparing your DNA to 45 curated ancient and regional populations from the Mediterranean, Near East, Europe and beyond. Designed for researchers, archaeologists and curious users, it highlights Bronze/Iron Age gene flows, colonial and regional signatures (Mycenaean, Phoenician, Etruscan, Anatolian, North African, etc.) to contextualize genetic similarity within historical frameworks. Results are informative for hypoth

À propos de ce calculateur
The Ancient Mediterranean Civilizations K52 admixture calculator is a specialized tool that estimates ancestry using a curated panel of 45 ancient and regional reference populations spanning the Mediterranean, Near East, Europe, North Africa and distant comparative groups. It is built for researchers, archaeogeneticists, museum scientists, heritage enthusiasts and anyone with ancient or modern DNA data who wants to explore deep historical affinities rather than recent genealogical relationships.
This calculator compares your genetic profile to curated ancient clusters — including Mycenaean, Phoenician, Etruscan, Egyptian, Hittite, Assyrian, North African and numerous European and Near Eastern groups — to show proportional affinities to cultural and population horizons important in the ancient Mediterranean world. Because the reference set also includes broader Eurasian, African, American and Oceanian populations, the model can highlight long-range influences (Caucasus/Armenian, Persian, Steppe, Levantine, and African inputs) and help distinguish local Mediterranean substrata from later or distant admixture.
Users gain insights into possible ancestral threads: Bronze and Iron Age gene flows, colonial expansions (Phoenician, Greek, Roman), Anatolian and Levantine migrations, North African connections, and subtle regional signatures like Illyrian, Sicani, Nuragic or Pontic Anatolian affinities. The calculator is a hypothesis-generating tool: it helps contextualize genetic similarity within archaeological and historical frameworks, suggest likely sources of ancestry, and prioritize samples for deeper study.
Limitations are clear: results reflect similarity to reference clusters, not neat ‘labels’ of identity, and are dependent on the available ancient samples. Interpretations should be made alongside archaeological, linguistic and historical evidence. For anyone studying ancient Mediterranean population dynamics or curious about their deep genetic echoes in this cros

Comprendre l'analyse d'admixture
Découvrez le fonctionnement des calculateurs d'admixture et comment interpréter vos résultats
Qu'est-ce que l'analyse d'admixture ?
L'analyse d'admixture est une méthode qui permet d'estimer votre similarité génétique en comparant votre ADN à des populations de référence du monde entier. On peut la voir comme une composition de votre profil génétique, où les composantes représentent différentes populations de référence.
Ce calculateur utilise 52 populations antiques soigneusement sélectionnées comme références, pour une répartition détaillée de votre similarité génétique.
Comment ça fonctionne
- Votre ADN est comparé à 52 populations de référence
- Des populations Antique sont utilisées comme références génétiques
- Les résultats indiquent votre similarité génétique avec ces populations
- Un panel de référence diversifié améliore la précision des estimations
Comprendre vos résultats
Vos résultats affichent des pourcentages de similarité génétique avec ces populations de référence. Gardez à l'esprit les points suivants :
- Les résultats reflètent une similarité génétique, pas une ascendance directe démontrée
- Des populations Antique sont utilisées comme références
- Les pourcentages indiquent une contribution génétique relative dans le modèle
- Les résultats sont des estimations fondées sur les données de référence disponibles
