I wanted to know how much ancestry I have considering the Bronze / Iron Age. Below is the best model I made, with p-value of 0.173 , low SE, all z > 2 (statistically supported).

Before I’ve tried to reconstruct the two Indo-European waves into Iberia separately, the Bell Beaker in the Bronze Age and the Celts in the Iron Age. I try to make some models with Portugal_BA and several Central European populations like Halberstadt (Urnfield) , Knoviz , Hallstatt or La Tene, but they sit on a shared cline and create instability, high SE and not good p-values.
When the sources sit on a shared cline that creates collinearity, qpAdm struggles because left and right are similar. That doesn’t mean the model is invalid, it means that the proportions become unstable, the SEs inflate and the interpretation becomes muddy.

By the Iron Age, Iberia already had a stabilized Bell Beaker-derived gene pool with continental interaction embedded in it. Here I use an already admixed historical Iberian population, this is statistically cleaner and historically more realistic. This model avoids the earlier collinearity problem because Spain_IA_Celt already includes Iberian Bronze Age substrate with some steppe ancestry (via Bell Beaker) and Iron Age continental input. Here I’m no longer trying to separate gene flows from the Bronze Age vs flows from the Iron Age, I collapsed them into a single historical population, that removes artificial dimensionality.

This model says that my ancestry is statistically consistent with being primarily derived from the genetic profile of Celtiberian-like Iron Age Iberia, with a modest eastern Mediterranean–related component and a small North African component.
It does not mean that I’m 80% Celtiberian, it means that my ancestry fits within that Iron Age Iberian genetic structure. That it is statistically compatible with that genetic profile. The Italy_Imperial_oAnatoliaCaucasus component is not equivalent to “Roman ancestry”, it is a proxy for Eastern Mediterranean / Anatolian-shifted drift. This could reflect Punic-era or Roman/post-Roman-era gene flow. This model is statistically stable, historically coherent, not overparameterized and avoids collinearity.
Spain_IA_Celt represents three individuals from La Hoya in northern Spain.

The model works well also for some samples of Spain_IA, that occupy the same position on the PCA than Spain_IA_Celt.

The Italy_Imperial_oAnatoliaCaucasus component is the responsible for my slight shift toward Anatolia Chalcolithic in the PCA, that may represent a slightly more eastern Mediterranean farmer ancestry. So, I revised my basal ancestry model to include Greece Nea Nikomedeia EN, instead of Barcin. Nea Nikomedeia has a predominantly Barcin Anatolia Neolithic ancestry, but also additional Central Anatolian Neolithic, Tepecik-Çiftlik related, and is slightly more CHG shifted.

In this two-dimension PCA the sample most close to me is Hungary MBA Vatya RISE480. Not because any direct ancestral relationship, we have independent historical admixture events, but because in the PC1 / PC2 axis she should have similar proportions of "basal" ancestry (Barcin, Yamnaya,….).​

That is the same phenomen occurring between some modern northern Italians and some modern Iberians isn't it?

The people of the Vatya culture did not migrate to Iberia, nor did they participate in the ethnogenesis of the Iberian peoples, but they share “basal” ancestry, ancestral components or deep ancestry components related to ANF + WHG + Steppe.
Between Northern Italy and Iberia, the same proportional effect is observed in the PCA (similar deep ancestry ratios), but they also share some historical migrations, like the Cardial Neolithic expansion, Bronze/Iron Age migrations (Ligurians ?), Roman-era mobility.​

I can be modeled as a single-source left with Early Medieval Tuscany and Lazio.

In the spirit of St. Patrick's day I modeled myself as 100% Medieval Irish:

What do you guys think about these outgroups. I used to use Estonia_BA.SG to as a Slavic outgroup, but that shared too much drift with Slavs. So I decided to use BHG and EHG instead

I pooled these 2 samples together

I separated Kartal_A from Kartal_B as it is done in the study, Penske et al. 2023.

This demonstrates the high-steppe admixed population that mixed with the local farmers in the Balkens during the Copper age.

This serves as a good proxy for the Trans-Adriatic Steppe-enriched Balkan populations that were formative in Apulia.

I can be modeled completely as an Upper Paleolithic Caucasian. This is a core West Eurasian ancestry, and was seminal to the majority of WHG.

This sample comes from Allentoft et al. 2024

Wonder how you can model han chinese and Australian aboriginals. Those are two groups I’d like to look up origins on.

I wonder why the model passed because you definitely need some ANE to account for steppe ancestry. It should be UP Caucasian+ANE for most West Eurasians.

It is probably just a fluke. Frankly, I wouldn't trust the results of this model... TBH, I am not sure what kind of outgroups would be optimal for such a distal Left pop.
