A focused population profile of Mwani, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Mwani is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Mwani 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 Mwani.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Mwani is Makhuwa. Other nearby references include Sena, Yao, Chewa Malawi, and Tumbuka Malawi. This gives the Mwani profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

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