Join us on this remarkable journey to connect with your past and discover the stories that shaped the world.

What tests are included in this compendium?
This test combines four of our existing tests available on our website: "The Assyrian Empire: Founders of Assur", "The Assyrian Empire: Assyrian Merchants", "The Assyrian Empire: Assyrian Conquerors", and "The Assyrian Empire: Assyrian Emperors".

Together, these tests comprehensively cover all the significant Assyrian eras, including the Early Assyrians, the Middle Assyrians (both early and late periods), and the Neo-Assyrians. Each of these periods represents a distinct chapter in the rich history of the Assyrian civilization, showcasing their evolution in culture, governance, and military prowess.

The Early Assyrians laid the foundational aspects of society and trade, while the Middle Assyrians advanced military organization and administrative sophistication, contributing to the expansion of their territories. The Neo-Assyrians, known for their formidable empire, brought about remarkable achievements in architecture, literature, and governance, leaving a lasting impact on the ancient world.

By participating in these tests, you can explore your ancestral connections to each of these influential periods and gain a deeper understanding of how the Assyrian legacy continues to resonate today. Embrace the opportunity to connect with the remarkable history of the Assyrians and discover how your roots may intertwine with this extraordinary civilization.

What will you receive?
The tests provide a detailed historical, archaeological, and paleogenetic background on each of the ancient people, including their daily life, religious practices, mysticism, interactions with others, and notable deeds. A comprehensive profile is available for every ancient tribe member, offering deep insights into their world.

Why take this test

Up until 2010, reading the DNA of ancient people was a dream. Since then, the DNA of a Neanderthal who lived over 30,000 years ago has been sequenced. After that reading, the DNA of ancient people who lived from 15,000 BC to 1,800 AD all over the world became the main object of paleogenomic research. This leap forward in technology allowed the creation of a new type of DNA test — tests that do not use modern-day populations as stand-ins for the ancient tribes but rather go right to the source and study these ancient peoples themselves.

The Ancient DNA Origins DNA test is the first next-generation DNA test. It is designed solely using the DNA of ancient people throughout history using our novel technologies.

With this test, you will receive a precise ancient ethnicity estimate with far greater geographical details than you could imagine. You will make new connections with historical people and places where your ancestors lived, walked, battled, created, and dreamed thousands of years ago. Using the genetic data and evidence from history and archeology, we can revive the past and allow you to take part in this story at the most personal level.
