What's included in Ancient DNA Hub?
- This Ancient DNA Hub DNA test collection provides powerful, innovative, and interactive DNA-based tools to help you find your ancient ancestors, trace your prehistorical lineages, and explore humanity’s most enduring origin stories.
-
Find out how related you are to the peoples associated with the era remembered across cultures as the age of the Great Flood, including:
Canaanites: People of Noah’s Grandson Elam (3165 – 2550 BC) found at two sites in ancient Elam (modern Iran),
The Hittite Empire: Sons of Heth (1625 – 1517 BC) found at four sites in Anatolia (modern Turkey), and
Witnesses of the Great Flood (3173 – 850 BC) found at twenty-nine sites in the Armenian Highlands from the following sites - Receive a detailed breakdown of your ancient geographical origins, ancient ancestry maps showing where your ancestors lived and migrated, and your exact genetic similarity to each reconstructed ancient individual.
- Compare your results with over 50 worldwide ancient and modern populations.
- After more than four millennia, you can reconnect with populations associated with one of humanity’s most powerful shared memories—the age of the Flood—at a deeper level than ever imagined.
- Be a part of this effort to reconstruct the earliest chapters of Near Eastern history using the power of genetics.
- Meet the people who lived at the dawn of civilization, whose stories inspired flood traditions across the ancient world — their story could be your story.
- Basic test includes 15 ancient individuals.
- Advanced test includes 46 ancient individuals
About the test
Across civilizations, continents, and millennia, one story appears again and again: a great flood that reshaped the world and marked the boundary between myth and history. From Mesopotamia to the Armenian Highlands, from the Bible to earlier Near Eastern traditions, this memory is not confined to a single culture—it is shared human heritage.
The Generation of the Flood compendium brings you closer than ever before to the people who lived during this pivotal era. Using ancient DNA recovered from key archaeological sites, this test reconstructs the genetic legacy of populations whose lives unfolded during the centuries traditionally associated with the Flood narratives and their aftermath.
This is not theology. This is biology, archaeology, and history combined—allowing you to explore whether your own DNA carries echoes of the people behind these ancient stories.
What tests are included in this compendium?
This collection unites three powerful ancient DNA reconstructions, each representing a crucial strand of the Flood-era world:
-
Canaanites: People of Noah’s Grandson Elam (3165 – 2550 BC)
Journey to ancient Elam, east of Mesopotamia, where early Canaanite-related populations flourished in the generations remembered in biblical genealogies. This test explores communities traditionally linked to Noah’s descendants—people who helped repopulate and rebuild the ancient world after catastrophe. -
The Hittite Empire: Sons of Heth (1625 – 1517 BC)
Trace ancestry to the Hittites, one of the great Bronze Age powers of Anatolia. Biblically remembered as descendants of Heth, these people bridged mythic ancestry and historical empire, leaving a deep genetic and cultural imprint on the Near East. -
Witnesses of the Great Flood (3173 – 850 BC)
Explore the Armenian Highlands—long proposed as a geographic heartland of Flood traditions. Spanning nearly two and a half millennia, this test captures populations whose continuity may preserve biological echoes of the era that inspired humanity’s most enduring cataclysmic narratives.
You will receive an immersive ancestral profile that integrates ancient DNA, archaeology, geography, and historical interpretation. High-resolution ancestry maps, haplogroup breakdowns, and population comparisons allow you to see how your genetic signature aligns with people who lived at the dawn of recorded civilization.
This compendium offers a rare opportunity to step into humanity’s shared origin story—not as a legend, but as a genetic journey. If you have ever felt drawn to the story of the Flood, the genealogies of Genesis, or the earliest civilizations of the Near East, this test allows you to explore whether your DNA still carries traces of the people who lived through the world’s most powerful remembered transformation.
Why take this test
Before 2010, reading the DNA of ancient people was a distant dream. That changed when scientists sequenced the DNA of a Neanderthal who lived over 30,000 years ago. This breakthrough unlocked the secrets of ancient genomes from people who lived between 15,000 BC and 1800 AD, spreading paleogenomic research across time and continents. Now, a new generation of DNA testing no longer relies on modern populations as stand-ins for ancient tribes. Instead, it goes right to the source, using the DNA of the ancients themselves.
Ancient DNA Hub’s Tests are the first of their kind, crafted solely from the DNA of ancient peoples through our pioneering technology. With our tests, you will receive a uniquely detailed ancient ancestry report, pinpointing specific regions and tribal connections more accurately than ever. Imagine discovering lands, tribes, and empires where your ancestors lived, fought, created, and dreamed millennia ago. By merging genetic data with the knowledge of history and archaeology, Ancient DNA Hub brings the past to life—helping you connect to your heritage on the most personal level.
