I recently had my ancestry analysed. Lo and behold, at the 50% confidence interval, my DNA showed a majority (84%) of Eastern European ancestry: Polish, Ukrainian, and a few others. Those traits cover everything in the last two generations. That matches my personal known history - my parents lived in the border region between Ukraine and Poland and the borders shifted all the time.
My DNA also shows a relatively high percentage of 8.3% Greek/Balkan. That also makes perfect sense as our family was Greek Catholic and Byzantine catholicism was widespread in Ukraine. These minor traits go back 4-7 generations. The remainder was attributed as Broadly European.
Alas, my Neanderthal index is lower than 58% of people screened. I am, therefore, arguably more human than most. I wonder what implications that has.
