Description
Levantine Viking Ashkenazi K7 is a modern-era admixture calculator tailored for individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent. It analyzes your genotype against seven reference clusters—Southern Europe, Western Europe, Middle Eastern, Eastern Europe, Central Europe, Northwest Europe, and Turkic—to estimate proportional ancestry contributions that reflect historical migrations, founder events, and community gene flow. Designed for genealogists, community researchers, and curious individuals, the calculator emphasizes patterns relevant to the Ashkenazi population: deep Levantine roots, extensive interaction with European host populations, and smaller signals that may reflect northern or steppe-mediated contacts. Using population-reference modelling, the tool converts genomic variation into interpretable components. You’ll get a breakdown of likely percentages from each reference group, visual cues for primary vs. minor sources, and contextual notes explaining how each component relates to known historical processes—such as Levantine origin, medieval European admixture, and possible influences from Northwest European (including Viking-era) and Turkic-associated gene flow. The results illuminate questions about maternal and paternal lineages, regional affinities, and community-level structure without overinterpreting fine-scale signals. Why this is valuable: for Ashkenazi individuals, small differences in regional proportions can illuminate family history, migration narratives, and scholarly hypotheses about population formation. The calculator is explicit about limitations: reference clusters are models, not literal ancestral populations; estimates are probabilistic and depend on reference choice, sample depth, and algorithmic assumptions. It is intended as a research-grade, user-friendly tool that complements documentary genealogy and academic studies—helping users translate genetic patterns into historically grounded insights while promoting cautious, evidence-based inte

Reference Populations

Southern Europe

  • Populations: Predominantly Mediterranean, includes countries like Italy, Greece, Spain, and Portugal. Known for diverse cultural influences from ancient civilizations.

Western Europe

  • Populations: Includes countries such as France, Belgium, and parts of Germany. Characterized by a mix of Celtic and Roman historical influences.

Middle Eastern

  • Populations: Encompasses regions in the Arabian Peninsula, Levant, and parts of North Africa. Rich history due to ancient civilizations and diverse ethnic groups.

Eastern Europe

  • Populations: Comprises countries like Russia, Poland, and Ukraine. Known for Slavic ethnic groups and historical ties to the Byzantium and Ottoman empires.

Central Europe

  • Populations: Includes countries like Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Mixture of Germanic and Slavic cultural influences.

Northwest Europe

  • Populations: Includes the British Isles and Scandinavian countries. Dominantly Celtic and Nordic ancestry.

Turkic

  • Populations: Encompasses regions stretching from Eastern Europe to Central Asia, including Turkey. Known for historical nomadic movements and diverse Turkish ethnic groups.

What is Admixture Analysis?

Admixture analysis is a method used to estimate your genetic ancestry by comparing your DNA to reference populations from around the world. Think of it as creating a recipe of your genetic makeup, where the ingredients are different ancestral populations.

This calculator uses 0 carefully selected modern populations as references, allowing for a detailed breakdown of your genetic heritage.

How It Works

Key Points
  • Your DNA is compared to 0 reference populations
  • Modern populations are used as references
  • Results show your genetic similarity to these populations

Understanding Your Results

Your results will show percentages of genetic similarity to these reference populations. Remember:

  • Results reflect genetic similarity, not direct ancestry
  • Modern populations are used as references
  • Percentages indicate relative genetic contribution from each population
  • Results are estimates based on available reference data
