A focused population profile of Anakalangu people, their Sumbanese and eastern Indonesian background, closest modern genetic matches, ancestry model, and World Genetics G25 heatmap.
The Anakalangu are a population from Sumba in eastern Indonesia, part of the Lesser Sunda Islands. Sumba sits in a maritime zone linking eastern Indonesian, Austronesian, Papuan-related, Timorese, Flores, and broader Island Southeast Asian histories.
Anakalangu is a local Sumbanese language, while Indonesian is widely used nationally and in education. This reference is useful for understanding Sumbanese genetic variation and its relationship to nearby islands and Oceanian-adjacent populations.
As a genetic reference, Anakalangu is useful for comparison with Kambera Wunga, Kambera Rindi, Manggarai Rampasasa, Mฤori, Tongan, Hawaiian, Bajo, Tahitian, Tongan European-mixed, and Samoan.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Anakalangu is Kambera Wunga. Other nearby references include Kambera Rindi, Manggarai Rampasasa, Manggarai Bere, and Manggarai Cibal. This gives the Anakalangu profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestry breakdown gives deeper component proportions, while closest matches show modern similarity. Anakalangu is best interpreted as a Sumbanese/eastern Indonesian profile, close to other Sumba and Flores-region references and more broadly connected to Austronesian and Oceanian comparison groups.
The heatmap should emphasize Sumba, eastern Indonesia, Flores, the Lesser Sunda Islands, Bajo maritime regions, Polynesian comparison points, and wider Austronesian/Oceanian zones.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Kambera Wunga. Other nearby references include Kambera Rindi, Manggarai Rampasasa, Manggarai Bere, and Manggarai Cibal.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Kambera Wunga is the closest listed match to the Anakalangu average after removing Anakalangu itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Anakalangu G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
