A focused population profile of Mixtec, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Mixtec is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Mixtec 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 Mixtec.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Mixtec is Zapotec. Other nearby references include Maya, Totonac, Nahua, and Luiseno. This gives the Mixtec profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

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