Here are my mother’s results !! She had 3 Pontic Greek grandparents and 1 Armenian. It seems pontic Greeks are a mix of Anatolians, South Caucasians and Ionian Greeks. I also have a question, does those regions in Georgia have a big Armenian population, since i don’t have any known Georgian relative. Also when i use the global model in illustrative dna it gives me 1% South East asian, 0,4% Papuan and 0,4% Sub-saharan. The sub-saharan i can understand, since ottoman empire brought slaves from Africa, but the south east asian and papuan I don’t. Although if i select west asian region and anatolian turks and greeks those results turn to 1,2% yellow river and 1% Central Steppe and 0,8% Mannaean which makes more sense. And last question what do you Georgians think of Laz people ?
After the conquest of Anatolia by Muslims the Lazs who remained Christian ended up being assimilated by Greeks (Since Lazs followed the Greek church instead of the Georgian one). I think your roots come from here lol
GIGATRIHARD on
Cool, how did you get those results, any guide please?)
