It's not legit. It' a simulation just like those gedmatch claculator simulations but someone wrote on reddit that illustrativeDNA G25 coordinates and DNAGENICS simulated G25 coordinates(the one that I wrongfully got) aren't all that different. Still, I need the actual coordinates. How did you get your coordinates? Through illustrativeDNA or by emailing davidski?

i dont know ...... but i dont think the results are good tbh ....looks odd
Obviously I am not 85% levantine like or 85% levantine. My guess is that it lumps georgian jewish into levantine category and braks down georgian into anatolian+north caucasus. Basically when I concluded that i was less than 1/4 georgian was right. I am 15% georgian and it's also evident on my high natufian + lower CHG scores.

Who do you want to connect with? With Davidski? I don't know. To be honest, I don't think there is much difference between k36 and actual coordinates.
I did some more comparisons between how samples with k36 simulated coordinates got modeled and how the samples with actual coordinates got modeled and there was some degree of difference. Which is why I want the actual and non synthetic/ no k36 simulated coordinates.

No, i want to know how i can reach out that that irantalks guy.

Levantines What makes Levantines is the high Mediterranean input, the Caucasus and some natufian influence. basically the only difference between levantines and Iranians/Caucasians is they have slightly more natufian score
That's not the only difference. Levantines have far more natufian than caucasians and far less CHG. However levantines do have more ANF than caucasians but CHG has med shift to begin with. Modern day levantines do have a significant influence from iranian/caucasians but they are still more than slightly different from each other.

If things were fair, levantines should have had the most natufian out of anyone since natufians solely inhabited the Levant. Basically, Gulf Arabs and Yemenis are far more relevant to the levant than modern day Levantines are.

As you can see, there is not much difference between
I tried it on se real and simulated coordinates myself and it was different. Also that 1-3% differences are significant enough.

only the natufian score matters here. as you can see it never changes
Modeling isn't only about natufian scores. Other components are just as important and the components that change are more prone to error than those that don't. This is why kt's better to have the actual coordinates.

Is it fair to disallow Indians from saying the N word? They are part AASI, therefore not much different from part SSA people who get the N word pass. On top of that Indians aren't white and some of them can even have the same shade of skin as full blown blacks.
