Please Interpret My Results

[fil]

Hello,

I was wondering if someone could interpret my results. I am Malayali (South Indian) and my parents state that we have West Asian ancestry/descendants of Cochin Jews. I wanted to test this and ran my results on several calculators but I am not sure how to interpret it. Any advice would be appreciated!

The automated computer results are as follows.
Please read the attached .rtf file for an explanation of how to
interpret all the data and plots. Both can be misleading without interpretation.

Most likely fit is 17.0% (+- 1.8%) Mideast (various subcontinents)
and 83.0% (+- 1.8%) S. Asia (all India)

The following are possible population sets and their fractions,
most likely at the top
Georgian= 0.171 S_India= 0.829 or
Armenian= 0.163 S_India= 0.837 or
Iranian= 0.199 S_India= 0.801 or
Druze= 0.148 S_India= 0.852

a custom fit is

Armenian 0.0525 Sindhi 0.3564 S_India 0.5911 or
Georgian 0.0481 Sindhi 0.3656 S_India 0.5863 or
Iranian 0.0809 Sindhi 0.3120 S_India 0.6071 or
Iranian 0.1464 Brahui 0.1053 S_India 0.7483 or
Georgian 0.0995 Brahui 0.1440 S_India 0.7565 or
Armenian 0.1057 Brahui 0.1366 S_India 0.7577

which is simply adding upt to where the spot on the map is.

The west Asian theory is defintley true in your case IMO. You score 8% East med on your eurogenes k13 whereas all South Asians such as punjabis, jatts and mainland Indians score none. That obviously indicates something.

I agree. It does seem like he has legitimate West Asian ancestry as shown by the 11%+ Caucasus on HAP despite being Malayli and as you pointed out the 8%+ East Med on Eurogenes K13. Not to mention he has a quite a few West Asian populations in some of his oracles like Dodecad V3.

By the way, some South Asians with no West Asian ancestry do score East Med on Eurogenes K13. I score 2.15% and often 2-3% SW Asian on other calculators like HarappaWorld.

Looks like that's the case:

Can you try the Eurogenes ANE K7 calculator?

Also, what are your Y-DNA and mtDNA haplogroups if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for replying back. I just ran it.

I have L3* and M33a2 according to 23andMe. I think L3* refers to L-M357 (correct me if I am wrong).

What does the Eurogenes ANE K7 calculator indicate?

Thanks

Hi fil welcome to the forum.from your haplogroups I guess you are of knanaya ancestry. Your west Asian scores are definitely higher for an average malayali but not for knanaya ancestry. I have already seen another knanaya autosomal profile which seem quite similar to yours . Cochin Jew ancestry seems a possible one since they seem to be your closest match

...

I have L3* and M33a2 according to 23andMe. I think L3* refers to L-M357 (correct me if I am wrong).

L-M357 is also a common haplogroup among the Knanaya. Could I take a look at your STRs (if available)?

Yes I am Knanaya. Is L-M357 uncommon in India? So other Knanayas have West Asian scores similar to mine? I was really surprised to be matched closer to Cochin Jews than Kerala Christians.

L-M357 is also a common haplogroup among the Knanaya. Could I take a look at your STRs (if available)?

Sorry I am new to this. What are the STRs and how to I access them?
