Ancient individuals in this report
Select an individual to see details. Shares DNA means DNA segments were detected between you and the individual (shown in centimorgans, cM). Shared lineage branch means you are on the same mtDNA or Y-DNA branch. Best-fit model means the individual is genetically similar to you and was used to model your profile; this is similarity, not shared DNA. Every other row is a reference sample shown for comparison. Admixture distance (lower is closer) is shown where available. None of these indicate a specific ancestor.
