Explore the ancient reference Vanuatu c. 550 BC, its closest modern genetic matches, ancestry models, and genetic distance heatmap.
Vanuatu c. 550 BC 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 Vanuatu c. 550 BC is Ni-Vanuatu. Other nearby references include Australian Aboriginal, Nasioi, Baining, and Ni-Vanuatu (European-Mixed). This gives the Vanuatu c. 550 BC profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Vanuatu c. 550 BC 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 Vanuatu c. 550 BC profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Vanuatu c. 550 BC average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Ni-Vanuatu. Other nearby references include Australian Aboriginal, Nasioi, Baining, and Ni-Vanuatu (European-Mixed).
In the current modern G25 reference set, Ni-Vanuatu is the closest listed match to the Vanuatu c. 550 BC average after removing Vanuatu c. 550 BC itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Vanuatu c. 550 BC G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
