Eric,

I got the same things in all mine. And I did every possible study they have so that I could choose which I think are the best when I run through other kits I administer.

It will take a large increase of submissions to help pinpoint the specific ethnicities. It's like how it shows my Native Indian DNA which comes from Chile. The map shows only Central America. So it makes me wonder how some of the people from Brasil are showing for their native blood - probably the same (Central America).

I've run my data through 6 different studies of Ethnic makeup. They consistently gave the same general porportions, which is reassuring, but within each general ethnic group, seemed to vary in content

For example for the African markers, most studies uniformly gave Sub Saharan African, split between West  and East Africa.  One study showed tribal association of Omotic ( southern Ethiopia) and Mbuti-pygmy ( west equatorial)

One study showed that it was mostly Northern African with some Western. Another showed twice as much Eastern as Western.

It's all in how large and varied a population used for each model is in the studies.
