A focused population profile of Greeks from Argolis, their eastern Peloponnesian background, closest modern genetic matches, ancestry model, and World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Greeks from Argolis come from the eastern Peloponnese, including Argos, Nafplio, Epidaurus, and surrounding coastal and inland areas. Argolis has ancient Mycenaean and classical Greek history, Byzantine and Frankish layers, Venetian and Ottoman periods, and a central role in modern Greek state formation.
Greek is the main language. Argolis should be read as an eastern Peloponnesian reference, related to Achaea, Corinthia, Arcadia, Elis, Messenia, Laconia, Euboea, and central Greece.
As a genetic reference, Greek Peloponnese Argolis is useful for comparison with Euboea Chalcis South, Arcadia, Elis, Achaea, Corinthia, Messenia, Laconia Vardounia/East Taygetos, Phocis, Euboea, and Laconia Eurotas.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Greek Peloponnese Argolis is Greek Euboea Chalcis (South Euboea Profile). Other nearby references include Greek Peloponnese Arcadia, Greek Peloponnese Elis, Greek Peloponnese Achaea, and Greek Peloponnese Corinthia. This gives the Greek Peloponnese Argolis profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestry breakdown gives deeper component proportions, while closest matches show modern similarity. Argolid Greek is best interpreted as an eastern Peloponnesian profile, close to Arcadia, Elis, Achaea, Corinthia, Messenia, Laconia, Phocis, and Euboea.
The heatmap should emphasize Argolis, Nafplio, Argos, Arcadia, Achaea, Corinthia, Elis, Messenia, Laconia, Phocis, and Euboea.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Greek Euboea Chalcis (South Euboea Profile). Other nearby references include Greek Peloponnese Arcadia, Greek Peloponnese Elis, Greek Peloponnese Achaea, and Greek Peloponnese Corinthia.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Greek Euboea Chalcis (South Euboea Profile) is the closest listed match to the Greek Peloponnese Argolis average after removing Greek Peloponnese Argolis itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Greek Peloponnese Argolis G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
