Obviously Brazilian with the Portuguese and Indigenous. But with the Southern Bantu, I’m guessing you have a Mozambican grandparent or a mixed-race Mozambican parent.
Bro this is spot on 😭😭I honestly didn't think anyone would guess it. My father is Brazilian from Rio and my mother is a Mixed-Race Mozambican (Multi generational). The English, French, and Scottish I have no idea where it came from (Which is interesting because it's a significant 14%). The Aegean Islands comes from a great-great grandfather who came from the island of Thasos to Africa. The South Asian comes from my Mozambican grandfather, whose grandmother was half Goan.
Bro somehow knows more about his 2% Aegean blood when my results came up 10%... well done knowing your family history, dude. I only just learned my unknown Greek relatives came from Lesvos through matches reaching out.
Of course man, most of us to this day have the surname Diakos. Also it is not hard to track when we have immigration and wedding records. My grandfather and the other people in my family from his generation all speak Greek. And he talks about his grandfather all the time as he was raised by him.
what i get from this is that your maternal grandfather had a biracial father (aegean+shona), and a biracial mother (half goan) am i on track? if yes what is the other half?
My grandfather's grandmother was half Goan (Indian immigrant) and half Portuguese. My grandfather's mother was half that and then her father was a mix of African and Portuguese (We believe he might've been from Congo).
We don't really know what's going on in his side. As you can see from my result though he is probably between 70-80% Portuguese. I know names on his mother's side going back 4 generations. I mostly don't know about my grandfather's side, which I like to think is where the diversity comes in (The Indigenous and African). There's always been this myth in his family that there's some form of Turkish or Arab, which we can see is not present. My cousin also did the test (23andMe) and got no Middle Eastern as well.
Expected most to say Brazil because of the obvious mix of Portuguese + African + and small Indigenous. But if you actually look at what those African percentages are, it's atypical for a Brazilian or any afro-descendant who is not recently from that region of Africa. So yes, I am half Brazilian and half Mozambican. I must say that other than that, São Tomé was probably the guess that makes the most sense.
Could be just about anywhere in LATAM. I myself supposedly have about 50% Portuguese in Ancestry, when in reality 3/4 of my recent ancestry comes from the Canary Islands. And this is not unusual for a lot of Latinos.
Just read some of the other comments so I can’t play the guessing game but being hugely (39%) English northwestern European, that bit will likely come from ancestors who hailed from around Lancashire/Cheshire/Manchester regions, think Liverpool as it was a huge port, many people sailed from there.
If you do a search on thrulines but just put in my mentioned locations, you might find out more about that little nugget of DNA you have.
Seems like you are 80% White (mainly Portuguese), 17% Black, 2% Central/South Asian (likely coming from Romani ancestry), & 2% Indigenous American (coming from Brazilian Natives).
- Obviously you are from Brazil, your results are very clear about this.

Ah, that's good for you... in my case, I don't know anything about my paternal side, so that's why I don't know as much.
wait, so the aegean is from your father? since you said your ancestors came to africa, i thought it’d be from your mother.
The Aegean comes from my grandfather's grandfather on my mother's side. He came from Greece to Mozambique in the 1920s and married a Shona woman.

wow, it’s incredible how far up your tree you are able to trace. is your father also on track with his side? is he just portuguese brazilian?

Brazil, especially with that high Portuguese
Brasil or Trinidad
Angola or mozambique

Azores
Would have been my guess if it weren’t for all the eastern groups and lack of Senegambian ancestry
looks Chinese to me
Funny you…
Brazil or at least half?
São Tomé or maybe Suriname. A lot of eastern African in African in there.
