Eurogenes K8 AMI

Eurogenes K8 AMI — Ancient-era admixture calculator for Europe

This calculator estimates how an individual's DNA aligns with eight ancient and broad reference ancestries to produce a snapshot of ancient-like genetic components across Europe. It compares your genotype to proxies that reflect deep prehistoric and early historic population structure: Amerindian, Siberian, Euro_HG (European Hunter-Gatherer), Oceanian, Sub-Saharan, Southeast_Asian, LBK (Early European Farmers), and South-Central_Asian.

Who this is for:

• Researchers, archaeogeneticists, and students studying prehistoric population dynamics
• Enthusiasts and genealogists interested in how modern or ancient samples relate to major ancient components
• Anyone wanting a context-rich, ancestry-focused view tied to Eurasian prehistory

What you learn:

• Proportional contributions from hunter-gatherers, Neolithic farmers (LBK), potential steppe/central-Asian-like inputs (South-Central_Asian), and northern Eurasian signals (Siberian/Amerindian proxies)
• Detection of minor extra-regional affinities (Oceanian, Southeast Asian, Sub-Saharan) that may reflect ancient gene flow, later migrations, or modeling noise
• A concise, interpretable breakdown useful for comparing individuals, populations, and archaeological samples

Genetic and historical context:

• Euro_HG captures Western/Eastern hunter-gatherer ancestry; LBK stands for early Neolithic farmers who spread agriculture into Europe; South-Central_Asian and Siberian components can reflect Steppe and northern Eurasian affinities. Amerindian and Oceanian serve as distant proxies highlighting ancient northern or eastern connections, not direct claims of geographic migration.

Why it's valuable:

• Provides a reproducible, model-based framework to situate samples within broad ancient ancestries
• Helps generate hypotheses about migration, admixture, and regional continuity

Interpretation tips:

• Components are model-dependent proxies, not absolute iden
