A focused population profile of Egyptian Jew, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Egyptian Jew is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Egyptian Jew with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Egyptian Jew.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Egyptian Jew is Romaniote (Yevanic Jew). Other nearby references include Sephardic Jew Turkey, Italki (Italian Jew), Sephardic Jew Greece, and Ashkenazi Jew France. This gives the Egyptian Jew profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Egyptian Jew 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 Egyptian Jew profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Egyptian Jew average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Romaniote (Yevanic Jew). Other nearby references include Sephardic Jew Turkey, Italki (Italian Jew), Sephardic Jew Greece, and Ashkenazi Jew France.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Romaniote (Yevanic Jew) is the closest listed match to the Egyptian Jew average after removing Egyptian Jew itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Egyptian Jew G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
