Five or ten years down the line someone will look closely at the methodology we’ll find out this tests were done by people hired off the street who had quotas to fill and made stuff up.
A lot of fun crazy stuff, junk.
Regardless of your forebears’ movements around the world and their intermarriages into other ethnic groups, this test will tell you where your father’s father’s father’s father’s etcetera, came from.
Your Y chromosome is inherited in a direct line from father to son, and so it was present in every male that fathered every male that ultimately led to you.
The test will tell you just where and what old Magnus Bonforte was, as far as genetics, which ties to geographic region, physical traits and race, even though racial classifications are somewhat murky or even moot for many, especially those from nations comprised largely of immigrants, or those whose ancestors resided in border regions between distinct peoples.
I thought it was a wattle, lol.
“My ancient sources range as far afield as India, Balkins, Middle East, Scandinavia, England, Scotland, Ireland and Cherokee.”
I suspect most of us would fit into the same groupings.
To be an American is to be a Mongrel...and be proud of it!
We’ll leave all that purity nonsense to the Europeans and Latinos.
I just realized this thread originated in 2005, lol. Better late than never, I guess.

LOL, thanks, I didn’t even notice.
Interesting.
Thx.
Interesting.
Lots of folks are convinced . . . including some Biblical scholars . . .
that 6 fingers = some ET alien type DNA A la Biblical Nephilium.
And that the old Native American raising the hand and saying How as a greeting was to check out whether the other person was 6 fingered or not . . .
A whole ‘nother topic.
No! Go to the top of the page and click on National Geographic/IBM and you're there.
I've been outside planting my garden, BTW.
TRUE. TRUE.
Much agree.
thx.
You are such a good boy! %*0)
Zulus were a subset of the Bantus, and they migrated into the area of South Africa about the time that the Europeans arrived in Capetown.
And the original Zulus were a small tribe until ShakaZulu conquered a lot of local tribes and integrated them into his empire.
Don’t know anything about Zulu slaves, but earlier peoples in the Zimbabwe area used to enslave Bushmen and use them for mining gold.
American blacks are only distantly related to the Zulus (their tribes went west, the Zulus went south a thousand years ago).
