About the test
Did you ever visit the Great Pyramids and feel a strange connection? Have you imagined standing in the sands of Egypt as Queen Cleopatra and Mark Antony faced off against Octavian’s legions?
This test brings that history closer than ever — through the real DNA of ancient Egyptians whose lives shaped one of the world’s greatest civilizations.
We obtained the DNA of ancient Egyptians from mummies discovered at the Abusir el-Meleq archaeological site — a burial ground used from around 3250 BC to the Roman period.
The individuals sequenced lived between 826 and 52 BC, spanning the pre-Ptolemaic through the Roman eras.
This test offers:
- A detailed historical and genetic overview of the ancient Egyptians from the Ptolemaic to Roman periods
- Breakdown of haplogroups, population affinities, and interactions with other ancient peoples
- Insights into their daily lives, religious beliefs, cultic practices, and mysticism
- Individual DNA profiles of each mummy, combining genetics with archaeology to reconstruct their story
Whether you have Egyptian ancestry, a family tale that draws you to the Nile, or simply a fascination with ancient history, this test lets you connect with the lives of real people who once walked the streets of Thebes, Memphis, and Alexandria.
