AncestrybyDNA Testing

November 17, 2010

Do you want to discover more about your ancestors and ultimately, what makes you uniquely you? Uncover your full ancestry mix through this exciting and unique new test, AncestrybyDNA™.

How does the test work?

Your DNA contains information on your family’s history. The AncestrybyDNA™ test reveals your family’s history, detailing where your ancestors originated from.

The ancient world had large numbers of migrations — modern humans originated in East Africa roughly 200,000 years ago, and moved through the Fertile Crescent in the Middle East to populate Europe, Asia, and the rest of the world. We’re the creation of both ancient and recent migrations. You can learn about these influences through the AncestrybyDNA™ test, offered in partnership with DNA Diagnostics Centre in the UK.

The AncestrybyDNA™ test analyses 176 locations in your DNA to establish your biogeographical profile. It details how much of the four founding populations can be found in your own DNA, listing percentages for European, East Asian, Sub-Saharan African, and Native American. These are defined as:

  • European: includes Europeans, South Asians and Middle Easterners
  • East Asian: includes the Chinese, Koreans, Japanese and Islands from the Pacific region.
  • African: includes people with roots in the Sub-Saharan area of Africa.
  • Native American: comprises of people who migrated to occupy North, South and Central America.
