A birds-eye view of admixture in human populations

We performed a three-population test for admixture (Reich et al., 2009) on 103 worldwide populations. Circles show the approximate current geographic locations of all tested populations (except for populations in the Americas, which are not plotted for ease of display). Filled circles represent populations identified as admixed, and the colors represent the current geographic labels of the inferred admixing populations. Empty circles represent populations with no statistically-significant evidence for admixture in this test.
