When I did my first genetic test I expected to be 50% southasian. Doug McDonald to me I am 25% and I was like "wow my family are part gypsies and I thought they are full". They always looked very southasian to me but I guess genotype is not the same as phenotype in ethnic groups who are formed 2000 years ago like gypsies it can distibute various in phenotype I guess. Like some sicilians look straight up gulf arab but are only 10% modern middle eastern. Here is Coons classification on gypsies before genetic tests were available he classified some gypsies as very pure and very eastern and noticed their dark skin.
