DNA Mash-Up: Dodecad

Dodecad is a DNA test option on Gedmatch that is geared toward those of Eurasian mixture. Since I have a small amount of West Asian in me, my results should be interesting.

Dodecad V3
This test runs 12 populations, mostly Asian and African.

My results are:
West European 51.34%
Mediterranean 25.5%
East European 10.94 %
West Asian 9.16%
Southwest Asian 1.18%
Northwest African 0.91%
Southeast Asian 0.46%
Neo-African 0.31%
Paleao African 0.2%
South Asian 0%
Northeast Asian 0%
East African 0%



Neo-African includes the Yoruba, Mandenka, Bantu ethnic groups.
Palaeo-African includes the San, Mbuti, Biaka Pygmy groups.

Dodecad Africa9
This test runs 9 populations, mostly African.

My results are:
Europe 68.3%
Southwest Asia 22.21%
Northwest African 7.51%
San 1.28%
Biaka 0.69%
East Africa 0%
South Africa 0%
Mbuti 0%
West Africa 0%

I'm quite surprised that I don't have more European percentage in this test.

San is the indigenous people of Southern Africa.
Biaka is the pygmy people around the region of Congo.
Mbuti is the indigenous people around the region of Congo.

Dodecad World9
This test runs 9 global populations.

My results are:
Atlantic Baltic 71.2%
Southern 14.7%
Caucasus Gedrosia 11.9%
South Asian 0.81%
Amerindian 0.72%
African 0.31%
East Asian 0.2%
Australasian 0%

Southern I'm assuming must be South Europe, primarily around Italy/Greece area.
Gedrosia is the Persian region.
Australasian is the Oceania region.

Dodecad K7b
This test runs 7 populations.

My results are:
Atlantic Baltic 71.24%
Southern 15.53%
West Asian 11.71%
South Asian 0.68%
East Asian 0.59%
African 0.25%
Siberian 0%

This test mostly summed up what my Ancestry results were.

Dodecad K12b
This test runs 12 populations.

My results are:
North European 41.76%
Atlantic Mediterranean 37.84%
Caucasus 8.81%
Gedrosia 8.11%
Southwest Asian 1.72%
Northwest African 0.98%
Southeast Asian 0.49%
East African 0.24%
South Asian 0.05%
Siberian 0%
Sub-Saharan 0%
