About Croatia MLBA Velim-Kosa
Croatia MLBA Velim-Kosa 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.
What is Croatia MLBA Velim-Kosa DNA closest to?
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Croatia MLBA Velim-Kosa is Spanish Catalonia Penedès (Catalan). Other nearby references include Spanish Catalonia Lleida (Catalan), Italian Piedmont Cuneo (Occitan or Piedmontese), French Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Puy-de-Dôme, and Spanish Catalonia Camp de Tarragona (Catalan). This gives the Croatia MLBA Velim-Kosa profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.
