Explore the ancient reference North Macedonia LBA, its closest modern genetic matches, ancestry models, and genetic distance heatmap.
North Macedonia LBA 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 North Macedonia LBA is Albanian Gheg. Other nearby references include Greek Central Greece Phocis, Albanian Tosk Cham Greece, Albanian Tosk, and Albanian Gheg Kosovo. This gives the North Macedonia LBA profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the North Macedonia LBA 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 North Macedonia LBA profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the North Macedonia LBA average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Albanian Gheg. Other nearby references include Greek Central Greece Phocis, Albanian Tosk Cham Greece, Albanian Tosk, and Albanian Gheg Kosovo.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Albanian Gheg is the closest listed match to the North Macedonia LBA average after removing North Macedonia LBA itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the North Macedonia LBA G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
