Fascinating to see where my line sat in medieval Europe versus today. The report placed me close to medieval Northern Italian samples and explained the drift toward the modern profile clearly. The interactive map is beautiful.

Genetic genealogists, family historians and curious explorers from around the world share their experience with our reports and tools.
As an Iranian I was thrilled to see the Ancient Civilizations report trace my line through Iran Neolithic farmers and later empires with real samples. The scholarship is serious and the presentation is gorgeous.
I am from Sicily and the report captured the Greek, North African and mainland Italian layers perfectly. The closest ancient samples were from exactly the periods my family stories mention. I have recommended it to my cousins.
The Ancient Civilizations report is a brilliant piece of work. Seeing how my DNA maps onto Bell Beaker, Corded Ware and the later medieval samples gave me a timeline of my ancestors I never expected from a consumer test. The historical notes are excellent.
Being Igbo, most ancestry sites lump all of West Africa together. The DNA Origin Report actually placed me near the right populations and the explanation was respectful and clear. It took a couple of days but the human touch was obvious. Highly recommend for African customers.
I tested with three different companies and never got real clarity until this report. The two way mixture model finally explained why I always showed up as Tuscan on other tools. Seeing my actual Irish and West German split laid out with the G25 distances was eye opening. Worth every euro.
Worked well once I uploaded both kits. It separated my Chinese and Malay sides neatly and explained the method. The upload took a moment to figure out but support helped quickly.
The Second Parent report was exactly what I needed. By adding one parent it pulled apart my results and showed which side my Eastern European share came from. Clear, clever and genuinely useful for my family tree work.
Useful conversion. My simulated G25 was a decent approximation and worked fine in the modeling tools. The note explaining that official Davidski coordinates are more reliable was appreciated and honest.
The Ancient Civilizations report gave my mixed Colombian background real depth, linking the European side to old Iberian samples. Four stars only because I wanted more Native American ancient references, which I know are limited.
A wonderful idea executed well. My ancestry mapped onto medieval Central European populations and then the modern ones, and the shift made sense with what I know of my family. The map and timeline are a lovely touch.
The G25 simulated tool let me convert my K36 numbers into coordinates I could actually use. Clear about its limits and free to try. Perfect for beginners who do not want to wait for the official request queue.
Really enjoyed the medieval breakdown. Seeing my closest medieval and early modern matches side by side was eye opening. I would have liked a few more British Isles reference points but the analysis was solid and the writing was clear.
As a Greek I loved seeing my ancestry tied to Bronze Age Aegean and later samples. The Ancient Civilizations report reads like a small history book about my own DNA. Beautifully done.
Handy when all I had was a K36 result and no proper G25. The simulated coordinates got me close enough to start exploring in the calculators. Not as precise as the official scaled ones, which the site is honest about, but a great starting point.
The Medieval and Modern report is something I have not seen anywhere else. Watching my ancestry shift between the medieval reference populations and the modern ones, with the map, made history feel personal. The temporal layers were the highlight for me.
Romanian with the Balkan base, a clear Slavic layer and a touch of steppe. The medieval samples it matched me to were spot on. One of the best value reports I have bought.
Detailed West African breakdown that did not just say West African. Akan and Gur related signals separated nicely. I appreciate the effort to do justice to African ancestry.
The Second Parent report helped me see which side of my family my Tibeto Burman trace came from. Useful and clearly explained. The upload step took me two tries but support was patient.
Portuguese from the north. The report nailed the Iberian base with a Roman era Mediterranean layer and a faint North African trace. The closest ancient samples lined up with what I read about our region. Lovely work.
The Ancient Civilizations report gave my Arabian ancestry real historical depth, connecting me to Bronze Age Levantine and Arabian samples. Thoughtful writing and strong sourcing.
I have spent way too many hours in the free calculators and the Genetic Passport tool. Addictive and well built. These free tools alone make the site worth bookmarking.
Got my coordinates fast and they worked well in the calculators. Simple and effective. Would be nice to have a Chinese language note but the process was clear enough.
Zulu heritage confirmed with the wider Bantu context explained well. The tone was warm and the science felt honest. Sharing it with my children so they know where we come from.
Solid French result with the regional detail I hoped for, a Breton lean on one side and Occitan on the other. The two way model was helpful. A touch technical in places but the guide saved me.
Dominican with the tri continental mix everyone here has. The report separated the European, African and small Taino signal honestly. Respectful and clear. I was genuinely moved reading the Taino part.
From Kyiv. The report gave me a precise East Slavic profile with the steppe and farmer layers and pointed me to relevant medieval samples. Genuinely educational, not just a pie chart.
Korean ancestry shown cleanly with the expected Northeast Asian profile and a tiny southern trace. Report is professional. I gave four stars only because I wanted more East Asian ancient samples, which I understand are limited.
The free ROH endogamy detector taught me something real about my own background. Did not expect such a useful tool at no cost. It pushed me to learn more about my ancestry.
Quick, reliable scaled coordinates. I have ordered for several family members now. The price is fair and the turnaround is immediate. No complaints at all.
Filipino with the usual Austronesian base, but the report also picked up a small Spanish and Chinese trace that matches my family names. Beautifully laid out and easy to share with relatives.
Combined two kits into a superkit and my coordinate fit scores dropped a lot, meaning a better match. Clear instructions and instant output. Brilliant little tool.
The result itself looked accurate and the explanation was friendly. My only issue was the wait, it took several days and I had to send a reminder. Once it arrived I was happy with the content.
Egyptian and proud. The Ancient Civilizations report connected me to the right Bronze Age and later samples with a clear narrative. Reading about my ancestors across the centuries was moving.
Good detail for Southeast Asia, which is often ignored. Showed my Kinh majority ancestry with a southern Chinese trace. I would have liked more local reference populations but the analysis was sound.
Irish through and through, or so I thought. The report found a clear Norse layer along the coastal lineage. Loved the maps and the honest distances. This is how a DNA report should be done.
I use the G25 tools and the dendrogram generator constantly for my own hobby projects. Generous to offer this much for free. The phylogenetic tree output is genuinely useful.
Punjabi from Lahore. The report separated my ancestry into the right Iranian farmer, steppe and AASI components instead of one blurry South Asian blob. Excellent explanation of the Indus periphery context.
Uploaded the family trio and got a clean split of which parent contributed what. Helpful for understanding my own results. The interface for uploading could be a little smoother but the output was great.
Peruvian highland roots shown clearly with the Quechua related signal I expected plus a Spanish colonial layer. The report was warm and easy to understand. Great service.
Detailed and well presented. Yoruba ancestry confirmed with a small unexpected Sahelian component that sent me down a research rabbit hole. Four stars only because I would love an African focused ancient sample set in future.
The Ancient Civilizations breakdown for my Ashkenazi background was fascinating. Levantine and Southern European layers shown with real ancient references rather than vague labels. Top quality.
Did exactly what it said. Got my scaled coordinates quickly. I only wish the email had a short note on how to load them into the calculators, but that is a minor thing.
Accurate and kind in tone. The report placed me with Akan related groups and explained the Bantu expansion context. My whole family read it. Money well spent.
The free Haplogroup Explorer and Phenotype Predictor are surprisingly good for tools that cost nothing. I spent an evening exploring my Y line. These got me interested enough to buy the full report later.
As a Turk I expected the usual Anatolian plus Central Asian story. The detail here was far beyond that, showing the layers from Neolithic farmers through to Seljuk era samples. Impressive scholarship behind it.
Very thorough. I learned more about my British and French Canadian roots here than from years on other sites. Took me a second read to understand the NNLS part but the guide helped. Would recommend to any serious genealogy hobbyist.
The Superkit Generator saved me hours. Merged my old 23andMe and a newer Ancestry kit into one clean file and my coordinates improved noticeably. Simple tool that just works.
Finally a report that understands North Africa is not just one thing. It showed my Berber base with the Arab and a little Iberian layer. Written with care. Thank you.
Brazilian with a real mix of Portuguese, Native and African. Most tools give me mush. This one untangled it cleanly and even flagged the midpoint trap. The interpretation actually made sense of my family history.
Solid and honest. The report did not pretend to know more than the data allows, which I respect. Placed me firmly in East African Bantu with a small Cushitic share. Delivery was a bit slower than I hoped but the quality made up for it.
Beautiful report. The maps showing where my closest ancient matches lived made the whole thing feel real, not just numbers. My Bengali ancestry came through with the Tibeto Burman trace I always suspected.
Fast and cheap. I just needed proper scaled coordinates for Vahaduo and got them in minutes. Way easier than fighting with the request queue elsewhere. Used them for several relatives already.
Clever idea. I uploaded my parents and my own kit and it separated out which side gave me what. The maternal Scandinavian piece was a surprise. Only reason for four stars is I wanted even more detail on the paternal side, but support answered my questions quickly.
As someone from Kerala I was tired of generic South Asian results. This broke down my ancestry into proper components and the closest ancient samples matched what my grandparents told me about our roots. The PDF is detailed and easy to follow.
