Who has taken DNA tests?

What was the break up?
Has any one ever got having Turkish genes?

The ottomans were instrumental in the survival of Adal empire so at least their should be a turkish admixture.

The Ottoman Empire was mutliethnic

The Turkishness of Ottoman elites and/or Ottoman state polices favoring Turkic ethnicities/tribes wildly exaggerated.

Out of the hundreds (~500) of Somalis on 23andMe, I have only seen 1 guy with 2% Greek-Balkan percentage.

It is incredibly rare.

Yemeni Arab and Southeastern Bantu are the two most common foreign admixtures in Somalis. Rarely anything else. Third most common is Indian (from India) (rare). Afterwards other stuff become extremely rare.

23andMe is the best when it comes to price and value of information.

23andme plus Y-DNA and mtDNA tests from Yfull is the way to go if someone has the cash. Then download your 23andme raw data and play around a bit with stuff like nMonte and Global25 from Eurogenes. All you will ever really need.

Yeah, but for the newbs I advise starting out with 23andMe only.

YFull / FTDNA etc is more for ancestry geeks.

I wish 23andMe would just do whole genome sequencing at this point, it is 2021. When 23andMe does whole genome sequencing it could lead to a massive growth in the haplogroup trees.

To be honest, I'd say the most common "foreign" admixture is "Ethiopian". Before 23andme overly expanded their Somali component a lot of Somalis turned up with 3-10% Ethiopian/Eritrean including myself and I think this was real in a lot of cases because with me if I use R on my computer or Vahaduo with my G25 coordinates I never fit as 100% Somali but turn up as like 5-10% or so some form of Highland Ethiopian. Mainly Beta Israel for me. You get a lot of Somalis showing some Wolayta/Oromo type elements too. Drobbah has for the longest time.

Yemeni and SE African Bantu is extremely rare in comparison to this pretty ubiquitous Ethiopian stuff. And that's without even counting the possible theory that all Somalis have substantial Highland admixture which is likely the source of our 5-10% South-Arabian.
 
My heritage is fake

Myheritage did not update their dna algorithms/ formula, also they are a Jewish focused so it more suitable for people of jewish background. Some elements are true, like everyone gets somali percentage at a different rate, the rest is always a suprise. Its a complete waste of money and i would not recommend to anyone
