How do you download your stuff from Ancestry in order to upload to GEDMatch?

@Akan/Igbo

How do you download your stuff from Ancestry in order to upload to GEDMatch?

Ancestry should offer your DNA raw data and you transfer that in GEDMatch. All instructions is on the website for gedmatch

@Akan I finally uploaded my results to gedmatch which one is a more accurate admixture text to use for African Americans. The results seem all over the place.

@Akan I finally uploaded my results to gedmatch which one is a more accurate admixture text to use for African Americans. The results seem all over the place.

Mine are too. Some of the calculators lean towards certain ethnic groups. I mainly look at HarappaWorld and the PuntDNAL calculators. On the PuntDNAL I use the K12 Modern and the K8 African Only. They seem fairly close to my overall reading from Ancestry.com. I am almost convinced that Ancesty uses something like an average of the mixed mode from the HarappaWorld test to arrive at the percentage of DNA from various regions. Those tests seem kind of close, but I could be wrong.

Some of of the other calculators may be way off, because they may be testing for Europeans; South Asians (India and Pakistan); or Far Easterners (Russians and Chinese).

My Ancestry percentages were:

38% Cameroon/Congo (Also covers Chad)
32% Ivory Coast/Ghana
7% Nigeria
3% Togo/Benin
2% Mali
2% Senegal
1% North Africa

From my PuntDNAL K8 African only I got the following score:

1. Mali_Mandinka 15.59
2. Chad_Kaba 17.83
3. DRC_Kongo 18.29
4. Nigeria_Hausa 18.48
5. Cameroon_Bamoun 20.26
6. Nigeria_Igbo 20.35
7. Cameroon_Fang 23.13
8. Nigeria_Fulani 23.52
9. SA_Nguni 24.27
10. Cameroon_Mada 24.35
11. Ghana_Brong 24.96
12. Nigeria_Yoruba 25.09
13. Kenyan_Bantu 25.69
14. SA_Pedi 25.8
15. Mali_Bambaran 26.37
16. SA_Bantu 29.7
17. SA_Sotho/Tswana 30.28
18. SA_Xhosa 33.76
19. Chad_Bulala 40.3
20. DRC_Hema 41.16


I can tell right away that my Ivory Coast/Ghana; Mali and Senegal (scores are solid with my Gedmatch scores which lean heavily towards the Mande, and Fulani people from the Kingdom of Mali and the Akan people from Ghana. The Fulani are migratory; while they are listed in Nigeria on this test, they are actually all over West Africa especially in and around the Mande people.

You can clearly see that I am also heavily Bantu; with matching groups in Central and South Africa, which is what the Ancestry test also showed.

My HarappaWorld scores are a little more slanted; showing more New World numbers, but still pretty accurate. Still showing a heavy Mande, Bantu and Akan influence. The Dogon are also from Mali.

20 bantukenya (hgdp) 29.03


I find it interesting that these test to a certain extent mirror the slaving records. My family originiated in America in Virginia and North Carolina; and to a lesser extent South Carolina. That is where a lot of Mande people were bought in first and then a lot of Congo and Angola (Gullah) (Bantu people) were brought in later. Slave tales and records show that that happened and now my DNA mirrors it.

You don't show your Ancestry scores, but you look to be mostly from Nigeria and Cameroon/Congo; with some heavy North African or Southen European influence.

Just looking at the scores I don't know how much Bantu, Tikar and Nigerian you are; but it looks like you seem to be mostly from Nigeria, Cameroon/Congo; with very little Mande or Akan influence. Wow you show no traces of Yoruba or Igbo; but you show heavy Tikar people (Bamoun), which is in line with the Hausa, Fulani and Bamoun people in Cameroon. So your profile looks very much from the Sahel, North African and Kongo, which is Hausa, Fulani and Berber people; as well as Bantu.

Yes they do, because the Fulani were everywhere, but they are prevalent in, Nigeria, Cameroon, Guinea, Senegal and Mali. The Fulani always lived near the Mande people; so some of your scores go right back to the Fulani people who were enslaved with the Mande people in and around the Kingdom of Mali (Ivory Coast, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Gambia and Mali).

Not only that but the Hausa people were long distance traders traveled form Hausaland to Mali. The Hausa people are important traders that also settle in places like Northern Benin and Togo. In Nigeria the Fulani people went on a Jihad against the Hausa people; now they are just known as Hausa-Fulani in Nigeria. The Fulani are also in Togo and Benin.

Your Bantu scores are not that high; but I would almost peg you as straight up Fulani. If you are African American; then you are proof that a great number of Fulani people were captured in the slave trade along with the Mande. I have Fulani too, but not as high as yours. I am more Mande.

Btw, don't get to caught up on the name of the current countries; because those are artificial boundaries imposed by Europeans. You should look as Ivory/Coast and Ghana as a region; because they were not countries but instead where regions of similar genetic people.
