A focused population profile of Itelmen, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Itelmen is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Itelmen 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 Itelmen.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Itelmen is Koryak. Other nearby references include Chukchi, Yupik Chaplin, Yupik Sireniki, and Yukaghir Tundra. This gives the Itelmen profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Itelmen 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 Itelmen profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Itelmen average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Koryak. Other nearby references include Chukchi, Yupik Chaplin, Yupik Sireniki, and Yukaghir Tundra.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Koryak is the closest listed match to the Itelmen average after removing Itelmen itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Itelmen G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
