Over the last decade, researchers had made advancements in unveiling some of the hidden secrets of the African continent with Ancient DNA. One region which have historically garnered attention was the lower Nile valley, North East Africa, home to who most refer to as Egyptians and Nubians. As of the 20th century, numerous archaeological expeditions […]

UPDATE: ANA-(related) admixture in select populations

This is an update revisiting my attempt at quantifying the Ancestral North African or Ancestral north African related (ANA) admixture in Africans and neighboring populations. ANA in this context would represent a population related to both East Africans and early non-African populations, which is the loose description of the direct ancestors of North Africans; hence

The Breakdown: Are we all Genetically North African?

To further asses Africa’s genetic landscape with the samples publicly available, I’ve taken a few steps into investigating some equations which had not yet been experimented with. However, all statistical tools used within these analysis have been made publicly available and will be referenced below. Please note, that this project wasn’t sponsored in any way
