A focused population profile of Maba, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Maba is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Maba 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 Maba.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Maba is Daju Nyala (Gemar). Other nearby references include Dangaleat, Nuba, Nuba Koalib, and Shilluk. This gives the Maba profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Maba 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 Maba profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Maba average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Daju Nyala (Gemar). Other nearby references include Dangaleat, Nuba, Nuba Koalib, and Shilluk.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Daju Nyala (Gemar) is the closest listed match to the Maba average after removing Maba itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Maba G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
