Reveal your ethnic origins
Your MyHeritage DNA test results include an Ethnicity Estimate: a percentage breakdown of your ancestral background, showing your ancestors’ origins from among 42 ethnicities, including Japanese, Irish, Italian, Jewish and many others. You will find a list of the regions your ancestors — from both sides of your family — came from, as well as the percentage of your DNA that comes from each area.

The Founder Populations Project
MyHeritage has identified unique founder populations, people who have lived in the same place for many generations. We sent DNA kits to these people from all over the globe from Uzbekistan to Fiji and from Greenland to South Africa, who were selected on the basis of their backgrounds as genetically representative of their geographic region. This project — the largest of its kind ever conducted — enables MyHeritage to feature many more ethnicities than any other major DNA testing service.
