The data is a compilation of published sources, research collaborations and primary research. The
populations sampled are based on direction from historians, anthropologists, linguists and other
geneticists.
This extensive database allows us to find identical matches for approximately 85% of the people
we test. For the remaining people, we find closely related lineages with greater than 95%
confidence. To find out more about genetic ancestry testing, visit www.africanancestry.com.
