Irish1986 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 You can see the origin of someone by something called the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) when people have organ transplants you have to match these up if not the organ will be rejected (Its called HLA typing). bit about HLA on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_leukocyte_antigen Doesn't mention about showing peoples origin but I have a friend who is an HLA typer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 If you have dark hair you're probably descended from the Normans; if red or blonde, you likely have some Viking blood in you. Beyond that, I can't help. The Normans were themselves descended from the Vikings, the name Normans itself originates from old Latin or French or a combination of both to mean Scandinavian or Viking.

Twiglet Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Have a look here http://www.genetrack.co.uk/dna_ancestry_testing.php I wouldn't recommend using any commercial service for this type of DNA work. Even when used forensically this is still very much an experimental field and requires bespoke research doing; having read the vague information provided on that link the information you get for £59 is essentially meaningless.

Rich Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 What does it matter? I personally don't care whether anyone's black, white or a budgie, it's what they're like as a person that matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
