GEDmatch MDLP K11 Test

[hollifer]

I've been fiddling with the various admix caclulators on GEDmatch.

MDLP K11 is really interesting. It looks like it measures your ancient DNA. But, I don't know what the following abbreviations mean:

WHG
EHG

Can anyone tell me?

My known heritage is two Polish grandparents (one from each side), one Ukrainian grandfather, and one Swedish grandmother. These results seem to be close. I presume the Germany origin could have migrated north into Sweden to account for my grandma's line, and also further east for Polish. Poltavka covers modern Ukraine.

Admix Results (sorted):

# Population Percent

2 Neolithic 29.40
3 EHG 26.40
4 Basal 2.41
5 Iran-Mesolithic 2.18
