Dodecad K10a
Dodecad K10a — Modern 10‑component ancestry model.
Quickly quantify your autosomal ancestry across ten reference clusters (Palaeoafrican, South Asian, West Asian, Southeast Asian, Sub‑Saharan, Atlantic_Baltic, Red Sea, East Asian, Mediterranean, Siberian). Ideal for genealogy enthusiasts and researchers who want a compact, interpretable snapshot of regional affinities and admixture patterns. Use as a clear starting point for deeper genetic investigation.

Dodecad K10a — Modern 10‑Component Admixture Calculator
This calculator estimates the proportional ancestry of a DNA sample using a modern 10‑component model derived from global reference populations. It analyzes autosomal genotype data to report how much of an individual's genetic makeup aligns with each of the following reference clusters: Palaeoafrican, South Asian, West Asian, Southeast Asian, Sub‑Saharan, Atlantic_Baltic, Red Sea, East Asian, Mediterranean, and Siberian.
Who it's for:
- Genetic genealogy enthusiasts seeking clearer regional affinities
- Population geneticists and students exploring comparative models
- Anyone curious about broad continental and subcontinental ancestry signals
What you get:
- A quantitative breakdown (percentages) across 10 interpretable genetic components
- Clear signals of admixture events and affinities (e.g., Atlantic_Baltic vs Mediterranean)
- Clues about recent vs deep ancestral contributions based on component patterns
Context and interpretation: This model is a compact representation of modern genetic diversity. Each component corresponds to an allele‑frequency cluster that reflects historical population structure and migrations (for example, Red Sea may track Northeast African/Arabian links, Atlantic_Baltic captures northwestern European/Siberian interplay). The labels are heuristic: they summarize complex histories and are best interpreted as regional affinities rather than precise ethnic labels.
Why it’s valuable:
- Provides an accessible, reproducible snapshot of ancestry with balanced geographic coverage
- Useful as a starting point for deeper analyses (haplogroups, local ancestry, formal tests)
- Helps users contrast competing historical scenarios and visualize admixture proportions quickly
Limitations and best practices:
- Not a definitive report of identity — results depend on reference sampling and clustering
- Combine with genealogical records and other genetic tools for robust conclusions

Was ist eine Admixture-Analyse?
Bei einer Admixture-Analyse wird Ihre genetische Ähnlichkeit geschätzt, indem Ihr DNA mit Referenzpopulationen aus verschiedenen Weltregionen verglichen wird. Die Komponenten des Modells stehen für diese Referenzen und hängen von den zugrunde liegenden Daten und Annahmen ab.
Dieser Rechner nutzt 10 sorgfältig ausgewählte modern Populationen als Referenzen und ermöglicht eine detaillierte Darstellung Ihrer genetischen Ähnlichkeit.
So funktioniert es
- Ihr DNA wird mit 10 Referenzpopulationen verglichen
- Modern-Populationen dienen als genetische Referenzen
- Die Ergebnisse zeigen Ihre genetische Ähnlichkeit zu diesen Populationen
- Ein vielfältiges Referenzpanel verbessert die Schätzungen
Ihre Ergebnisse verstehen
Ihre Ergebnisse zeigen Prozentsätze der genetischen Ähnlichkeit zu diesen Referenzpopulationen. Beachten Sie diese Punkte:
- Die Ergebnisse spiegeln genetische Ähnlichkeit wider, nicht nachgewiesene direkte Abstammung
- Modern-Populationen werden als Referenzen verwendet
- Die Prozentsätze geben relative Beiträge im Modell an
- Die Ergebnisse sind Schätzungen auf Basis der verfügbaren Referenzdaten
