About Ireland Mesolithic

Ireland Mesolithic 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 Ireland Mesolithic DNA closest to?

In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Ireland Mesolithic is Lithuanian North Žemaitija. Other nearby references include Lithuanian West Žemaitija, Lithuanian South Žemaitija, Estonian, and Lithuanian. This gives the Ireland Mesolithic profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.
