Ukraine Neolithic ukr087 23andme format

Did you know that among the hunters and gatherers that inhabited Ukraine in the neolithic, Caucasus ancestry was already present? This might surprise some, as the Ukraine-Neolithic samples tend to cluster right intermediate between the Eastern and Western Hunter gatherers, being slightly closer to the eastern ones. Well, in this video I present to you a neolithic ukrainian, dating to 7 millenia before our age, who exhibits a high level of admixture from the caucasus. It is a woman carrying the mitochondrial lineage U4a1. I modeled her in qp.Admixture as 55 percent Eastern, 31 percent Western, and 14 percent Caucasian hunter gatherer. I also ran fst analysis on her, according to which she is closest to northeast europeans. The Fst values were heavily inflated because the sample on aadr dataset is not a true diploid.

I also ran her through my Trait Predictor tool for DNA analysis.
