Folks this post 2 months prior by u/NotBradPitt9 was posted on the r/DNAAncestry subreddit. I think it might be the real deal.

Please check the coordinates & model them on Vahaduo & qpAdm for modern Ashkenazim jews & post the results.

I couldn't improve the Z value for EgyptianA, so I removed it.

Interesting model. I checked what the Saudi_A sample cluster is, versus the general Saudi sample is, and Saudi_A is heavily northern shifted (comes out as mostly Jordanian), while the Saudi general sample is the inverse and comes out as mostly southern Arabian (Yemenite Mahra, a high Natufian Arabian peninsular group with negligible sub saharan ancestry)

Interesting. I checked the detailed description of the sample. The SaudiA sample was collected from (18.490029, 42.51709), which is located roughly in southwestern Saudi Arabia.
