Cariguela I10899 23andme format

Think the I1 lineage started in Scandinavia? Think again. In this video, we extract and analyze the raw genome of Carigüela, a man who lived in Paleolithic Spain 24,000 years ago—making him the oldest known carrier of the I1-M253 lineage.

Using qpAdm modeling, we break down his unique mix of Western Hunter-Gatherer and indigenous Aurignacian ancestry, his elevated Neanderthal percentages, and a complete DNA Trait Predictor breakdown. From his physical appearance (dark skin, black hair, brown eyes) to his behavioral predispositions, lactose intolerance, and health risks, we uncover the fascinating blueprint of an Ice Age European.
