I just want to be clear (perhaps my fault for cutting a lot out of the vid for time) I'm fully aware of Jamaicans being of African descent and that being a result of slavery that's particularly why I wanted to find my roots in Africa (and is the case for many PoC) because our records only go so far.. When I said I thought I would have 'indigenous Caribbean' I was referring to taino/arawak purely because of the afore mentioned 'maroon' heritage my mum was told of (some maroons were mix of taino and african slaves)- now I have been made aware this would come under native american in the testing. I don't have any native which doesn't bother me I just assumed it would show up and thought it would show as 'Caribbean' not native american. Yes modern day Caribbean people are mainly African but I thought there would still be some lineage left and perhaps show in me

+ZigAndStuff Hi! My family is from Jamaica as well and my maternal grandmother also had maroon blood. I took the 23 and Me test and Native American ancestry showed up for me which I believe is from my grandmother. From what I understand from some of the Ancestry DNA and 23 and Me tutorials I've watched on Native Americans, most of these tests are not able to detect which native tribes people may have originated from. So once you know you have native blood, its ends up being more on your end to figure out the tribe~~ But these tests are fun! :)

Ancestry have a video that explains that some heritage does not come up only because it goes too far back to detect. So you may indeed have arawak but through time the influence on your dna is not that great. Also when 2 people have a kid not all the dna is transferred. Siblings can end up with different mixes of their parents dna. SO don't worry about it.

Congratulations! I'm Jamaican too (raised in the US) and had very similar results to yours. I read that those of us from the British Caribbean tend to have a higher percentage of our African Ancestry from Benin/Togo (more than Blacks from the US and other parts of the diaspora). This is so fascinating! Also, the Maroons of Jamaica were predominantly West African (unlike Maroons from other countries who were more mixed with Indigenous people). They defeated the British, escaped slavery and created their own society which still maintains much of its African origins. Unlike other parts of the Caribbean, very few Jamaicans today actually have Arawak/Carib ancestry.

You were probably wondering why you did not get Native American ancestry from the Carribean. I wondered the same thing. But I did paint my Chromosomes on GEDmatch, and I see it in trace amounts. However, I have read ancestry does not count anything below 0.5% So if you had a grandparent who was 25%, sometimes you will not even get that DNA as what we inherit from each side is random. I am also going to take the 23andMe test because I am curious, and I do hear some of their results are a bit more accurate.

Also, if you have Jewish ancestry that is also a possibility of where your Middle Eastern DNA came from.

My PhD research is based on maroons. What I will say is that there isn't as much mixing of maroons with Caribs/arawaks as you think. The African slaves that the Spanish brought over mixed more with the Amerindian population. When the English invaded in 1660 those slaves fought with the Spanish and lost. Some of those slaves fled to what is now known as the Windward maroon area (so some of those maroons may have traces - but I do mean traces of Amerindian genes). But certainly the Leeward maroons certainly would be less likely to have any traces than the rest of the general population of Jamaica. With the white people that had to be stationed in each of the maroon areas as part of he treaties it's more likely that European genes can be found in maroon genes. Hope this helps.

Jenna Alcala If I'm not mistaken East Asia does not cover "Native America" at all and many nearly purely indigenous people of the Americas do not have any "East Asia" DNA markers. If she has any East Asian DNA markers it is because she has an ancestor from the subcontinent of India which would make sense as East Asians were brought to the island in the mid-late 1800s.

Scotland is included in GB. It's a shame they aren't able to desperate that. I'm Scottish and desperate to take this test but I'd have loved to know how much actual Scottish I have in me. They can tell the difference between Russia/Ukraine etc but not Scottish/English. I think it's because of the mass migration between England and Scotland but chances are if you have Irish then a chunk of the GB will be Scottish since they're closely linked with Ireland as there was more migration between Ireland&Scotland that Scotland&England. Anyway. I loved this video. I'm so tempted to do one of these kits. I'm yet to find a Scottish person on YT doing this type of video and very few Brits in general x

Omg your video is so similar to mine and I also asked people to guess. I would have guessed 80% African (Ghana mostly), 20% European like I did for myself. I'm Jamaican btw and I think we got some similar hits! When you say "indiginous Caribbean" Jamaica is a part of the Americas and was inhabited by Awaraks (Tainos) from South America, most of them died before the Africans came so you'd see that mostly in Hispanics (Cuba, Pourto Rico), it would show up as America/Native American. Oh check out my video!

I've never seen Caribbean as a result but I think it's because Caribbean is made up of different races and isn't a race on it's self. But this was an awesome results video :) I love seeing how/what people react to their results. I did mine not to long ago and it was crazy seeing my breakdown.

My Ancestry DNA result Benin Togo 33% range of 32-33% more Benin Nigeria on the graph and Congo 32%..Mali 14%...Ivory Coast/Ghana 12% mostly Ivory Coast on the graph..... I think Mali is the Fulani... Ivory&Ghana ??? 23&Me 47% Nigeria. Could this mean Yoruba ancestry? African Americans are very mixed so many Africans ancestry. DNA tribe have me top 3 San people, Khiosan, Xhoisa. West Africa coatal.. African Ancestry DNA is Yoruba/Fulani, Mbundu of Angola. I uploaded on GEDMatch and DNALand. Take all try to make sense.

My pre-watch guess of your heritage: U.K. accent, part of the African Diaspora; either 1st generation Brit? Parents: one parent African/or Afro Caribbean, and the other European? So, 60% African, 38% European, 2% Native American/Asian? Mostly, African: Nigerian, Ghanaian, Cameroon/Congolese & little Benin/Togo; European: British, Nordic(Scandinavian/Finnish), Western Europe

Wondering how anybody could tell Irish from Scottish (in terms of genes I mean - LOL) - same source peoples and same Viking raiders. Waiting for my results that superficially should be 1/4 Irish, 1/2 Scottish, 1/4 English. Hoping for some surprises. :]
