A: Ancient DNA HubTM offers the first and only genetic tests that employ ancient DNA from real ancient people, ranging from the Paleolithic to the mid-19th century. Our tests report your genetic relationships with ancient individuals and cultures from all over the world, like Paleolithic Americans, Icelandic Vikings, or the legendary Tribes of the Biblical Israelites (before their exile).
A: Providers will typically compare your DNA to the DNA of modern people, such as yourself. They cannot teach you about the ancient past. We provide a comprehensive collection of cultures and report your genetic identity at the level of ancient individuals. We also provide genetic, historical, and archeological information about ancient people and cultures at low-cost prices.
A: With our tests, you will go far beyond the inventions of photography and paper and discover new connections with ancient people that, thus far, existed only in stories and legends.
A: Ancient DNA HubTM tests combine paleogenetics, population genetics, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to compare your DNA with ancient individuals and populations. Our validation studies have shown accuracy of up to 95%, depending on the test and available reference data.
A: Ancient DNA HubTM was launched by geneticist Dr. Eran Elhaik, who has more than two decades of experience developing genetic ancestry methods and DNA tests. Dr. Elhaik earned his PhD from the University of Houston and completed two postdoctoral fellowships at Johns Hopkins University. He is currently an Associate Professor at Lund University and the founder of two biotechnology companies, Anath Genomic Consultants AB and Microdentify Sweden AB.
Dr. Elhaik is one of the founders of genetic genealogy and has developed genetic ancestry technologies used around the world. He designed GenoChip 2.0 for National Geographic's Genographic Project and its accompanying ancestry analyses, developed the DREAM microarray and GPS Origins for HomeDNA, and created numerous genetic ancestry tests for GenePlaza and other companies.
As founder and scientific lead of Ancient DNA HubTM, Dr. Elhaik brings together his work in ancient DNA, population genetics, computational biology, and artificial intelligence to develop a new generation of ancient ancestry tests. In 2026, Dr. Elhaik received recognition through the Swedish IVA-List for his innovative work.
