MDLP K12e
MDLP K12e (Ancient) is a 12-component admixture calculator that maps modern and ancient genomes onto deep prehistoric reference clusters — from Archaic and Natufian to EHG, CHG, ASI, Papuan and Oceanic. Designed for global users, it provides an accessible snapshot of ancient ancestry signals, helping enthusiasts and researchers explore prehistoric migrations and population structure. Note: components are model proxies, not admixture dates.

À propos de ce calculateur
MDLP K12e (Ancient) is a 12-component admixture calculator designed to place modern and ancient DNA samples into a deep-time framework of human population history. It quantifies the proportionate affinity of a tested genome to 12 carefully chosen reference clusters — Archaic, Oceanic, Southern Hunter-Gatherer (SHG), Pygmy, Southeast Asian (SEA), Papuan, Eastern Hunter-Gatherer (EHG), Onge, East Asian (EA), Caucasus Hunter-Gatherer (CHG), Ancestral South Indian (ASI) and Natufian — that capture broad, ancient population structure across Eurasia, South Asia, Oceania and Africa.
Who this is for: MDLP K12e is intended for genetic enthusiasts, students, and researchers who want a clear, interpretable snapshot of ancient ancestry signals in a global context. It is suitable for users comparing personal genomic results, exploring population-level patterns, or integrating ancient affinities into archaeological and anthropological interpretations.
What it analyzes and the insights you can gain: The calculator estimates how much each ancient reference contributes to a target genome, highlighting deep ancestries such as hunter-gatherer lineages (EHG, SHG, CHG), early Near Eastern components (Natufian), South Asian structure (ASI, Onge), Oceanian and Papuan signals, and residual archaic affinity. Results help trace major prehistoric migrations — for example, steppe-related EHG/CHG influence, the spread of Near Eastern farmers, coastal and islander lineages in Oceania, and the complex South Asian admixture cline — giving users a high-level map of their ancient genetic roots.
Context and value: By using ancient and deeply divergent reference clusters, MDLP K12e emphasizes ancestry on a timescale relevant to prehistory rather than recent historical admixture. It is a valuable exploratory tool for hypothesis generation, comparative analysis across populations, and educational demonstration of major prehistoric genetic turns. Users should note limitations: component labels are mod
Populations de référence
Les populations utilisées comme références génétiques dans ce calculateur
12 populations de référence
- Archaic: Early humans who lived outside of Africa, characterized by distinct physical features and tool technologies.
- Oceanic: Diverse group of populations inhabiting the islands of the Pacific Ocean, including Melanesians, Micronesians, and Polynesians.
- Southern Hunter-Gatherer (SHG): Hunter-gatherer populations that inhabited Southern Europe before the arrival of farmers from the Near East.
- Pygmy: Indigenous peoples of Central Africa known for their short stature, traditionally hunter-gatherers living in forest environments.
- Southeast Asian (SEA): Diverse group of populations inhabiting Southeast Asia, a region of great cultural and linguistic diversity.
- Papuan: Indigenous peoples inhabiting the island of New Guinea and surrounding islands, genetically distinct from other populations in Southeast Asia and Oceania.
- Eastern Hunter-Gatherer (EHG): Hunter-gatherer populations that inhabited Eastern Europe before the arrival of farmers from the Near East.
- Onge: Indigenous people of the Andaman Islands in the Bay of Bengal, traditionally hunter-gatherers with a unique culture and language.
- East Asian (EA): Diverse group of populations inhabiting East Asia, including Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, and Mongolians.
- Caucasus Hunter-Gatherer (CHG): Hunter-gatherer populations that inhabited the Caucasus region before the arrival of farmers from the Near East.
- Ancestral South Indian (ASI): Ancient population that contributed to the ancestry of modern South Asians, genetically distinct from the Ancient North Indians (ANI).
- Natufian: Late Epipaleolithic culture in the Levant region of the Near East, semi-sedentary hunter-gatherers who lived in villages and practiced early forms of agriculture.

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 12 populations antiques soigneusement sélectionnées comme références, pour une répartition détaillée de votre similarité génétique.
Comment ça fonctionne
- Votre ADN est comparé à 12 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
