Advanced Ancestry Analysis
I just found out I’m 95.1% African and mostly Esan in Nigeria. I also discovered I’m 1% Mexican from CRI Genetics.
We have combined cutting-edge genetic research with the anthropological history of the human race to create your Advanced Ancestry Report. This report is an analysis that dates back thousands of years, well beyond your last 5 generations and most recent ancestry.
The team at CRI compared your DNA to reference populations that have been discovered and genotyped from all over the world. We factor in the known history of human migration patterns over the last several thousand years before assigning them to your report. This process allows us to link you, through your ancestral lines, to vast regions that span well across the planet.
The results you see below reflect the “oldest” ancestries in your family history. Populations of men and women that lived thousands of years before most current nations, such as Germany or Britain, even existed. However, your report will still include these country and region names, in order to best help you identify which geographic location your genetic makeup arose from.
Recent Ancestry Analysis
Based on the latest genetic research available, this Recent Ancestry Report represents your last 5 generations. This analysis is based on the genetic makeup currently found most abundant in each of the specific geographic regions. This report should closely match what your parents and grandparents may have told you about your heritage.

The Yoruba are an African ethnic group that originated in what is now Nigeria. There are about 44 million Yoruba, making them one of the largest ethnic groups on the continent. They are renowned for their sculptures and cuisine. Traditional beliefs follow a pantheon of different gods sent by a creator god, Olorun. For Yoruba Christians and Muslims, the name Olorun is used to signify Yahweh or Allah.
The Yoruba people maintain a long oral tradition of their history. The first documents written about them date back to the 17th century CE, from the Oyo Empire. The first archaeological evidence for the Yoruba stems from the 4th century BCE, at Ile-Ife. The Yoruba claim that the gods descended from the heavens at Ile-Ife. According to legend, the gods started their civilization there. Archaeologists have uncovered advanced structures in Ile-Ife dating to the 12th century CE. This was right around the time that the Oyo Empire began.
The Oyo Empire held substantial power during the 17th and 18th centuries, and was able to assert influence over its neighbors. It maintained its power by trading with Portugese merchants. They exchanged goods and slaves for Portugese guns. The Oyo Empire served as a middleman for the Transatlantic slave trade. They sold criminals, captives, and subjugated people to Europeans.
But the Oyo Empire grew complacent, and fell into civil war in 1793. This civil war led to its demise in 1835. What remained of the Oyo Empire was obliterated by the Fulani Empire in 1836. The British came along later to colonize the region in the early 1900s and formed what is now Nigeria.
The Yoruba people have seen two major diasporas. The first diaspora was during the Transatlantic slave trade. Many Yoruba captives and criminals were sold to Europeans for transport to the New World during the 17th and 18th centuries. The second diaspora came after political upheaval in the 1960s and '80s in Nigeria. This diaspora largely went to the United Kingdom and the United States. In the US, this group settled in Maryland, New York, and New Jersey.
