23andme botched it. I cross checked with other heritage sites and the Greek comes up.

The explanation, if you are interested at all, is that Italy and Greece share their genetic heritage and are bundled together. The reason is simply that Greeks have lived in Italy for as long as they lived in Cyprus. There are still Greek speakers in Italy called the Griko people.

Isn't it funny to see them scramble to manufacture some explanation as to why the "greekness" isn't showing up... :roll:

Once a upon a time...
No DNA made America great. Nor Great Britain. Nor Canada(for all you Canadian assholes who think you're special), nor Australia.
Once they realized it was the system with every kind of nationality that made the difference...

Even half breeds like Oracle, deep down inside know why they choose to live in Scotland.

I changed my post because I saw that he had mentioned using Ancestry DNA.

I would not recommend this one. We have done both. The most comprehensive is 23&Me. But, I guess, it's useful to have both for comparison.

Ancestry DNA is very USA-centered - it gives you migrations to the USA from 1920 for example, and indeed, it did find one of my relatives there. With this one, 80% of my markers centered over Greece (mostly southern) and over Cyprus. Few scattered around Asia Minor. No African.

With 23&Me, the classification was over 95% European (Greece, Cyprus, Italy, Scandinavian) with about 4% undetermined.

You can do either of those companies if you want (AncestryDNA is cheaper but spams you constantly), and then submit your raw data to some other company (can't remember details - can get) that does the most comprehensive migrations for around £10.


How about https://www.myheritage.com/ ?

They are the cheapest €79, they have an offer now for €59 and the shipping is just €6 (free if you order 2). 23andme wants $99 + $84 shipping! AncestryDNA is €99 and it doesn't give me shipping unless I enter cc number :roll:
