A focused population profile of Afro-Colombian, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Afro-Colombian is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Afro-Colombian with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Afro-Colombian.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Afro-Colombian is Afro-Uruguayan. Other nearby references include Afro-Costa Rican, Afro-Venezuelan, Narragansett (SSA+European-Mixed), and Afro-Puerto Rican. This gives the Afro-Colombian profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Afro-Colombian average. It should be read as a model of deep ancestry components, while the closest-match table is the better guide to which modern populations are most similar in G25 space.
The heatmap gives the Afro-Colombian profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Afro-Colombian average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Afro-Uruguayan. Other nearby references include Afro-Costa Rican, Afro-Venezuelan, Narragansett (SSA+European-Mixed), and Afro-Puerto Rican.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Afro-Uruguayan is the closest listed match to the Afro-Colombian average after removing Afro-Colombian itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Afro-Colombian G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
