Historic Roots K24
Historic Roots K24 is an ancient-era admixture calculator that decomposes your DNA into contributions from 22 curated ancient reference populations. Suited for global users—researchers, genealogists, and enthusiasts—it reveals deep-time ancestry proportions (Neolithic farmers, Bronze Age steppe, Anatolian, Zagros, African, East Asian, etc.), links genetic signals to archaeological migrations, and helps contextualize personal DNA in human prehistory.

À propos de ce calculateur
Historic Roots K24 is an ancient-era admixture calculator that estimates deep-time ancestry by comparing your DNA to a curated panel of 22 ancient reference populations. Designed for a global audience—researchers, family historians, students of population history, and curious individuals—it reconstructs the palette of ancestral components that shaped modern genomes across continents. The calculator quantifies proportional contributions from sources such as Anatolian farmers, Yamnaya & Corded Ware pastoralists, Bell Beaker groups, Zagros highland peoples, Minoans & Mycenaeans, early South Asian (Indus Valley) profiles, and diverse African, East Asian, Siberian, and Oceanian ancestries.
What this tool analyzes: using a 24-component modeling framework (Historic Roots K24), it projects a user’s genotype onto ancient population signatures to produce percentage estimates of ancestry from each reference. Output highlights major prehistoric migrations, admixture events, and regional affinities—revealing, for example, steppe-derived, Near Eastern farmer, indigenous African, or East Asian contributions and how they combine in your genetic makeup.
Insights users gain: clear proportional breakdowns, comparative context versus ancient populations, and interpretive notes that link genetic signals to archaeological and historical patterns (Neolithic farming dispersals, Bronze Age steppe expansions, maritime Aegean exchange, Austronesian dispersals, and more). The calculator emphasizes deep-time connections rather than modern national labels, helping users place their DNA within long-term population dynamics.
Why it’s valuable: Historic Roots K24 blends genetic rigor and accessible explanation to turn raw genotype data into a narrative of human movement and mixture. It is a research-friendly tool for hypothesis generation, education, and personal discovery. Important limitations are also noted: results depend on sample overlap, reference representation, and are probabilistic rec

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 24 populations antiques soigneusement sélectionnées comme références, pour une répartition détaillée de votre similarité génétique.
Comment ça fonctionne
- Votre ADN est comparé à 24 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
