A focused population profile of Northwest Navarre Basques, their Spanish Basque borderland background, closest modern genetic matches, ancestry model, and World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Northwest Navarre Basques are associated with northwestern Navarre, close to Gipuzkoa, Lower Navarre, and the western Pyrenean Basque borderlands.
Basque and Spanish are both important. The region's position near Gipuzkoa and the French Basque Country explains why it is one of the tightest Basque-cluster references in the database.
As a genetic reference, Basque Spain Navarre Northwest is useful for comparison with Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Southwest, Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Tolosa, Basque France Lower Navarre, broad Basque Spain, Basque Spain Biscay, Basque Spain Navarre Roncal, Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Central, Basque France Soule, Basque France Labourd, Basque Spain Navarre Central-West, broad Basque France, and French Nouvelle-Aquitaine Landes Chalosse.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Basque Spain Navarre Northwest is Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Southwest. Other nearby references include Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Tolosa, Basque France Lower Navarre, Basque Spain, and Basque Spain Biscay. This gives the Basque Spain Navarre Northwest profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestry breakdown gives deeper component proportions, while closest matches show modern similarity. Northwest Navarre Basque ancestry is best interpreted as core Basque and western Pyrenean, close to Gipuzkoa, Lower Navarre, Biscay, Roncal, Labourd, Soule, and Central-West Navarre.
The heatmap should emphasize northwestern Navarre, Gipuzkoa, Tolosa, Lower Navarre, Biscay, Roncal, Labourd, Soule, and the western Pyrenees.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Southwest. Other nearby references include Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Tolosa, Basque France Lower Navarre, Basque Spain, and Basque Spain Biscay.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Basque Spain Gipuzkoa Southwest is the closest listed match to the Basque Spain Navarre Northwest average after removing Basque Spain Navarre Northwest itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Basque Spain Navarre Northwest G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
