MDLP K13c

MDLP K13c (Ancient) is an admixture calculator designed to estimate deep ancestral affinities by comparing a tested genome against 13 ancient-informed reference components. It quantifies the proportional contribution of broad ancestral sources — Amerindian, ASI (Ancestral South Indian), Neareast, Siberian, Mediterranean, Ancestor, Northeasteuropean, Subsaharan, Westeuropean, Paleosiberian, Caucasian, Austronesian and Melanesian — to give a clear multi-component portrait of genetic ancestry shaped over millennia. Who it’s for: This tool is built for genetic genealogy enthusiasts, population geneticists, archaeologists, students, and anyone curious about the deep ancestry within their DNA. Because the model is globally oriented, it suits samples from many regions and offers comparative context for both modern and ancient genomes. What you learn: The calculator returns percentage-style admixture results that indicate relative affinities to the 13 reference groups, highlighting ancient population structure, migration-derived mixtures, and residual signals that modern populations carry from prehistoric movements. Results can show, for example, elevated ASI-like or Neareast-like affinity, a Siberian or Paleosiberian signature in northern clines, or Austronesian/Melanesian ties in Pacific-adjacent genomes. Historical and genetic context: MDLP K13c is framed in an 'Ancient' era perspective — components reflect long-standing population clusters and clines rather than recent, fine-grained ethnicity calls. The reference set synthesizes information from archaeological, ancient-DNA, and modern datasets to capture deep patterns such as Eurasian steppe influence, South Asian ancestries, and trans-Pacific connections. Why it’s valuable: MDLP K13c is a robust, interpretable first-pass tool for exploring long-range ancestry signals, forming hypotheses about migration and admixture, and situating individual or study genomes within a broader prehistoric landscape.
