Hi Mary,
Both my uncle and I are showing Hazda......small %'s. Me slightly higher than
his. Within the Ethio helix k10 for middle east admixture, my Hazda is 1.28%
and Uncle John is 1.15%. Very interesting that you've met this group!
These admixture charts fascinate me!

I have indicators showing some North African DNA. What was interesting to me
was the Hazda people in the population list.
There are no indications that I have that DNA, but I happened to visit these
hunter gatherers when I was in Tanzania a few years ago. A very interesting
people whose language includes click sounds. I'm glad to see this population
has been studied. Rhey are losing their territory to other uses.
We also visited the Iraqw. They are supposed to be more closely related to (or
descended from) more northerly people. I think DNA study is going to answer a
lot of questions and pose many more.
Sorry if this is off topic.
Mary

Your welcome,
On Gedmatch I have looked at my mothers East African that myorigins assigns her
it isn't all East African some is West African although she has more East
African the same with my daughter she has both but in her case slightly more
West African. I think some of the East African is likely admixture from Jewish
ancestry that myorigins isn't able to pick up yet I expect that to change when
they have their Sephardic Jewish Diaspora ready. Ftdna is testing Sephardic
Jews in Israel that were from Salonika Greece and Izmir Turkey two communities
that received a substantial amount of New Christians from Portugal(forcibly
converted Jews) in the 1600's these people converted back to Judaism in Greece
and Turkey. It is possible some may also come from Ethiopia there was a huge
effort by the Portuguese to convert the Coptic Christians there into
Catholicism with many Portuguese missionaries also there was mixed community
there started with about 200 Portuguese soldiers marrying Ethiopian women
likely from the Tigray tribe. Those people at one point were kicked out the
mtDNA M1 haplogroups in the Azores group look like they may be from there.
