how it works?
Embedded within our DNA lies a collection of markers that hold invaluable insights into our ancestral heritage. These remarkable indicators, passed down through generations, weave a captivating narrative of our origins and illuminate our profound ties to contemporary Africa.
Your DNA
The PatriClan analysis examines the Y chromosome passed down from fathers to sons. To initiate the process, a simple swab from inside your cheek is all that's required.
Your Family Tree
The genetic information we extract remains consistent throughout every branch of your family tree, creating an unbroken connection that spans generations. Essentially, we unveil the unique imprint that you share with your ancestors, tracing back from parents and grandparents to great-grandparents and beyond, along a single lineage.
Your History
By harnessing groundbreaking genetic scientific methods, we delve deep into the secrets of your ancestry. Our meticulous search for markers and mutations reveals the precise origins of your lineage across the globe. If Africa emerges from your genetic makeup, we embark on a thrilling journey, comparing your genes to the vast repository of African lineages. The result? We unveil the present-day African country and ethnic group with whom you share a remarkable maternal or paternal heritage.
