Explore the ancient reference Israel IA Megiddo, its closest modern genetic matches, ancestry models, and genetic distance heatmap.
Israel IA Megiddo 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 Israel IA Megiddo is Samaritan. Other nearby references include Jordanian Arab Christian, Lebanese Arab Christian Greek Orthodox Zgharta, Lebanese Arab Christian Greek Orthodox, and Palestinian Arab Christian. This gives the Israel IA Megiddo profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Israel IA Megiddo 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 Israel IA Megiddo profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Israel IA Megiddo average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Samaritan. Other nearby references include Jordanian Arab Christian, Lebanese Arab Christian Greek Orthodox Zgharta, Lebanese Arab Christian Greek Orthodox, and Palestinian Arab Christian.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Samaritan is the closest listed match to the Israel IA Megiddo average after removing Israel IA Megiddo itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Israel IA Megiddo G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
