Explore the ancient reference Bulgaria MCA, its closest modern genetic matches, ancestry models, and genetic distance heatmap.
Bulgaria MCA is a reference in the World Genetics ancient G25 dataset. This page compares its coordinates with modern and ancient references. Labels may identify a sampled group, archaeological context, individual, or simulation; they do not necessarily describe an entire ancient population.
The map shows similarity to present-day reference populations, not the historical territory of this ancient group. Genetic similarity alone does not establish direct descent.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Bulgaria MCA is Italian Sardinia Sulcis-Iglesiente (Sardinian). Other nearby references include Italian Sardinia Benetutti (Sardinian), Italian Sardinia (Sardinian), Italian Sardinia North (Sardinian), and Corsican Corse-du-Sud. This gives the Bulgaria MCA profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Bulgaria MCA 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 Bulgaria MCA profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Bulgaria MCA average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Italian Sardinia Sulcis-Iglesiente (Sardinian). Other nearby references include Italian Sardinia Benetutti (Sardinian), Italian Sardinia (Sardinian), Italian Sardinia North (Sardinian), and Corsican Corse-du-Sud.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Italian Sardinia Sulcis-Iglesiente (Sardinian) is the closest listed match to the Bulgaria MCA average after removing Bulgaria MCA itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Bulgaria MCA G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
