About Kenya Pastoral IA
Kenya Pastoral IA 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 Kenya Pastoral IA DNA closest to?
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Kenya Pastoral IA is Datog. Other nearby references include Elmolo, Masai Kenya, Ogiek Kenya, and Tutsi. This gives the Kenya Pastoral IA profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.
