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

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