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

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