Ancestry DNA Results Puerto Rican

[@MD-iw9te]

if you're 17% then this means one of your grandparents was full Taino or 3 quarters, Puerto Ricans need to rewrite their history on Tainos because they clearly weren't wiped out 500 years like they teach us in schools, You should so this DNA test on some of the older people like a grandma or grandpa who looks more indigenous

[@AdrianaRiveraprhistory]

Soto N interesting. Yes I agree that history needs to be updated. It's sad that history gets to be written by the colonizers and that makes for a lot of innacuracies.

[@MsTomas086]

Its just means they kept mixing the genes over and over again.

It truly is nice to see a Latina very proud of all her heritage! Don't listen to the people who want you to be all white so badly.

So, be proud of the very thing that makes us Boricua, which is the world!

[@seximexipapasito5587]

17% is not a lot and it is less than a 5th. usually Puerto ricans have 3% to 9% and it is usually lower then African ancestry. If you want more African in you all you need to do is get an Afro Puerto rican boyfriend or husband or Dominican or African or even Caribbean because the history of the Caribbean the Taino were wiped out which they were. Only a small percentage of Taino ancestry remains in Puerto rico genetic makeup and it is from the maternal side. Most Puerto ricans have more African DNA from 25% upward to 100%. It is not like Mexico where their are more then 30 Million full indigenous Native Amerindian people and most Mexicans have 40% to 100% Amerindian ancestry.

Melanesians are people that look African but are more genetically before Polynesian. They may have made to the Americas first and were replaced by the influx of the American Indian people coming out of Russia or the Bering Strait.

[@katiebishop1907]

I've noticed that Puerto Ricans have higher European DNA than say Mexicans but tend to look darker and more ethnic. That's probably because their 2nd biggest portion is usually africa while the Mexicans is Native, and the latter is lighter/softer complexions so gives an overall more european look.

[@ditocerto]

BiG PaPI8 NO! PR has a pretty big African/black population.

[@ditocerto]

CJ Carrión Acevedo I know what is pale. I live in Europe. Thank you. Puerto Rican is a nationality. Anybody born in PR is practically Puerto Rican/american. That does not define your ancestry. So you will never only be seen as Puerto rican.

[@ditocerto]

BiG PaPI8 Censuses from the 1950s have not included ethnicity and it is difficult to quantify Afro-Puerto Ricans as a percentage of the population. Estimates range from 22 per cent to 65 per cent. Afro-Puerto Ricans were among the first non-indigenous people to arrive on the shores of Puerto Rico and can therefore look back to a more that 500-year presence however long enduring prejudices still affect their lives. An understanding of how the Afro-Puerto Rican presence is perceived can be gathered from the treatment meted out to illegal Dominican migrants. Puerto Ricans tend to represent Dominicans as being darker-skinned than themselves, and emphasize their African influenced facial features and hair texture. In Puerto Rico Dominicans often experience the intense stigmatization, stereotyping, prejudice, discrimination, and exclusion to which all people of African origin are subjected in that country. minorityrights.org/minorities/afro-puerto-ricans/

[@ditocerto]

CJ Carrión Acevedo and again, I'd rather do some research or talk to african Puerto ricans, about the subject. They know best.

Native Iberians do score a lot of Italy/Greece and some Great Britain (among others) so you should really see your Europe score (+ West Asia + Africa North) as your total Spaniard ancestry, so around 72%+ Spaniard. The very small % are usually what is called "noise", especially if they don't make any sense historically (here Pacific Islander for instance). The 2% Indian needs to be investigated though.

Johannes Hügel no need to be rude- would you care to explain why the majority people of Puerto Rico have Italian/Greek and other European DNA, besides IBerian, without having any significant migration from any of those countries.

French colonies, Mexico, British Colonies, Dutch etc. I had no idea of all the different ethnicities in PR until my DNA results did not make any sense to me.

What is your genetic community?

[@reysserpais5272]

Good Evening Ms. Adry River please if you permit me to make a respectful , polite comment if it's ok with you. This is your page, your presentation, your story and I don't mean to intrude or presume but I have to make a small comment in response to Mr. Chris and his reference to the Puerto Rican lady who looks white. From a physical anthropologists perspective this lady with 85% European, 10% Native American and 5% African genetic content is point of fact a Caucasian white woman due to her overwhelming 85% European component (very, very little mixture there) very likely of the Proper or Atlanto-Mediterranean physical type typical in Spain and the Canary Islands and the predominant Caucasian phenotype in the white populations of Cuba and Puerto Rico. The population of Puerto Rico is a uni ethnic but mixed-multiracial population composed of three distinct morphological groups according to the census - whites, mulattos-mestizos and blacks. Whites actually constitute the majority of the population on the island of Puerto Rico(not the U.S Puerto Ricans though) as well as Cuba being Cuba the one with the strongest European component of all the Caribbean islands due to the fact that in Latin American it was the country that received after Argentina the most Spanish immigrants. The notion exists that the only two countries to receive real European immigration in the Americas were the US and Canada and this is not correct. The US and Canada have mostly whites of the Nordic Central European racial types whites while through Latin America whites are more of the Southern Mediterranean racial type, that is the difference. Nonetheless as you said Ms. River, yes we do have a strong admixture in our genetic make up of Afro-iberian-taino elements. Ms. River you are really more within the physiological spectrum of a mestiza due to your physical traits and genetic composition. Please forgive me Ms. Adry if I am intrusive or overwhelming and thank you. With much respect from the sister island of Cuba.

So stop with that gigantic LIE! There is not much diversity in Japan!!! And Japanese culture is special! There is very little diversity in many countries, whites, blacks countries....You are mixed, so talk about yourself!!! But don’t think you know more than the people in PR!!! The vast majority of people in PR said very loud and clear in the last census, they are white!!! Not a myth, just a reality!

@@mbrower3304 Actually, genius, if most people in PR say they are white, is because they are! They are the only ones that know their own history, heritage and family trees! It is not you or your delusional ideas abut race!!!

From The Arabic peninsula and North Africa.If you are Hispanic you might have it from your ancestors from Spain.

I think that the india part might indicate gypsy ancestry, since Spain, especially the south has a lot of Roma-Spanish dependent populations. Flamenco, Fandagos De Huelva, Sevillanas, Bulerias etc are all inspired by gitanos where Andalucia is the main haven for this music and culture. There is also a town called Paterna De Rivera in Cadiz region. My surname is Rivera Molina so it gets interesting to know that.

Spain saved Italy from the Ottoman Empire. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Castelnuovo en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Lepanto The Battle of Pavia (1525) marked the beginning of Spanish dominance in Italy. Spain's claims to Naples and Sicily in southern Italy dated back to the 15th century, but had been marred by rival claims until the mid-16th century. While Venice, the Papal States, Este, and Savoy retained their independence, the rest of the Italian Peninsula either became part of the Spanish Empire or looked to it for protection. There would be no Italian revolts against Spanish rule until 1647. The death of the Ottoman emperor Suleiman the Magnificent in 1566 and the naval victory over the Ottoman Empire at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571 gave Spain a claim to be the greatest power not just in Europe but also in the world. The Spanish Empire comprised territories and colonies of the Spanish Monarch in the Americas, Asia (Philippines), Europe and some territories in Africa and Oceania.

[@quecomadridgarciagarcia7078]

the percentages of "Italian / Greek" correspond to the period of the Roman Empire in Hispania (-219 to 476); the Scandinavian (Germanic in general), corresponds to the Germanic invasions of Hispania in the fifth century ... That is why all this genetic inheritance together with the Iberian indigenous people constitute Spanish blood and it refers to Spanish ancestors in all safety ... I am Spanish and I have 14% of Scandinavian ... I do not have anything of Moor nor Arab like 75% of the Spaniards ... then the remaining 25% can have a low percentage no greater than 10% ...

Hello Adriana! I came across your video while looking for dna results videos like yours. Come to find out, we are 4-6 cousins. You resemble another cousin I/we have in common. My mother's side of the family are from Ciales and Manati. :)

[@AdrianaRiveraprhistory]

Tony Lazania wow really? How are we related?

[@tonylazania1235]

I'm not sure. I'm trying to figure that out. Based on our DNA match and family trees, It might be through our Pagan or Rodriguez lineage.

[@figtowers1194]

Tony Lazania Hi Omg I am from Morovis and have Pagan also. In seaeching for my tree There is Pagan all over... early 1800s Pagan Colon, Torres Pagan, Pagan Torres, Rosario Pagan Most my side were in Barahona, Morovis, and some branches ended up in other Barrios.

Nah. Some are just white and they're proud of it. Trust me.

[@mecontadmanboy7959]

Great that you're proud of your african heritage even with only 10% ! Africa is the future. You seem to be a very down to earth human being. Take care 😉

[@innertruth4206]

No olvidemos tambien que la peninsula Iberica fue invadida por Fenicios y Griegos mucho antes de la era cristiana. Los verdaderos autoctonos Ibericos fueron los Iberos y Celtas, despues llegaron los Romanos y por fin los arabes...que linda mixtura somos, no?. Un saludo de un Iberico desde Europa.

India would probably be from gitano blood that's where they originate.
