A focused population profile of Ovambo Namibia, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Ovambo Namibia is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Ovambo Namibia 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 Ovambo Namibia.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Ovambo Namibia is Nyaneka. Other nearby references include Kwangali Namibia, Umbundu, Ganguela, and Cameroonian Bantu. This gives the Ovambo Namibia profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

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