Yes, someone should inform Reich to switch over to g25, ffs, I mean all the cool kids in the 'east med' gang are using it, wtf does he need qpAdm for.
When Davidski wants to prove something, he unironically uses qpAdm and not Global25 (which remains a great tool anyway).
Also, I'd like a definition of the 'east med' terminology so I can understand wtf is the highbrow gang going on about, it seems everything from Abkhazia all the way to Cairo could be labelled as such, according to them.
No, according to the theorists of the "East Med Continuum", this area would extend from southern Italy to the Greek islands and Cyprus excluding mainland Greece and modern Turkey. I must admit, however, that this term has never convinced me much.
W/o anyone knowing about the sum of my different parental/maternal parts (that have nothing to do with either the East Med or the results listed) what conclusion can be reached? The same one with the Cretans, and/or the Dodecannese?
Using Global25 it can be seen that you have a somewhat high distance compared to the Cretan average (>3) and that you have too much CHG and too little Natufian. In short, one could speculate that you do not have fully Cretan origins despite having similar results.
1) The fact that the Greek categories (in g25 and elsewhere) are the only ones that are so numerous in those sheets (with Italians too, I guess) and that they refer to a historical snapshot of a period 100+ years past, most of the people with such autosomal profiles born in the early 20th century and long gone, while blatantly ignoring the current demographic reality of the country is a testament to the sheer idiocy of the small group of perpetrators responsible for those reference sheets and their crypto-racism that tries to disassociate the modern Greek profile from its Eastern/Anatolian demographic part through a process that renders the latter invisible.
In Italy there is also a recent demographic change. Since the 1950s, there were a total of 4 million people who moved from southern to northern Italy. Certainly the North Italian Global25 averages won't reflect this demographic change, but I do not expect them to because it is still too close to our own period. The same may apply to Greece.
