In this article, I will lay out general ancestry trends of 150+ groups from the Indian subcontinent. And try to make it make sense to a lay audience.
Before I present the data table, there are some important caveats:
1. The purpose of the table is to concurrently compare the ancestry trends for 100+ groups of the Indian subcontinent. If the chosen sources are incorrect, they will be incorrect for all the groups but will still allow us to compare ancestry % across groups and make some conclusions. The fit (distance %) is not too relevant, and the distances of some groups will indeed be bad (>3%). However, that does not take away from our purpose of finding broad trends within the data.
