The Levite tribe by Ancient DNA Hub

Ancient DNA Hub tests provide a powerful, innovative, and interactive way to help you find your ancient ancestors, trace your prehistorical lineages, and determine your ancient tribal origins.

With our latest test, you can find out how related you are to members of the Levi tribe (1250-1170 BC). You will receive a detailed breakdown of your ancient geographical origins, ancient ancestry maps showing where your ancestors lived and traveled, and your exact genetic similarity to each member of your ancient tribe. You can compare your results with over 50 worldwide ancient and modern populations. With this test, you can finally meet the people who led the ancient Israelites and developed the Jewish laws.

Two tests are available:
- Basic test, which includes 5 ancient Levites.
- Advanced test, which includes 15 ancient Levites.

You can use discount code: adoal15-2223a to get 15% discount on all membership plans and tests.

i’m african american but i got 11% levi and have genetic matches with some “biblical characters” what does this mean.?

[insomnicats]

I took the test out of curiosity and no known Israelite connections that i was aware of. In a 44% match to Sered in the Tribe of levi. I had a good% for the rest of the samples the lowest was 10%.
I've taken a few tests from here and just love it.

I’m black American and matched 5% to the tribe of Levi, I am also haplogroup L1.

Approximately 300, 000 men around the globe self-identify as Ashkenazi Levites, of whom two thirds were previously shown to descend from a single male. The paucity of whole Y-chromosome sequences precluded conclusive identification of this ancestor’s age, geographic origin and migration patterns. Here, we report the variation of 486 Y-chromosomes within the Ashkenazi and non-Ashkenazi Levite R1a clade, other Ashkenazi Jewish paternal lineages, as well as non-Levite Jewish and non-Jewish R1a samples. Cumulatively, the emerging profile is of a Middle Eastern ancestor, self-affiliating as Levite, and carrying the highly resolved R1a-Y2619 lineage, which was likely a minor haplogroup among the Hebrews. A star-like phylogeny, coalescing similarly to other Ashkenazi paternal lineages, ~1, 743 ybp, suggests it to be one of the Ashkenazi paternal founders; to have expanded as part of the overall Ashkenazi demographic expansion, without special relation to the Levite affiliation; and to have subsequently spread to non-Ashkenazi Levites.

So what Y DNA did you find for the Levites?

[HOWMUSICTV]

Waiting on my Big Y 700 From the Christian Nubians to the High frequency of aDNA in Israel. I did your Naphtali test and got 17% and 28% overall Israelite it was allot of fun. Can you share you discount code with me again

[Steven-jd]

the H-M82 haplogroup, an identical 8-microsatellite Y chromoome haplotype is shared by nearly 30% of Gypsy men, anastonishing degree of preservation of a highly differentiatedlineage, previously described only in Jewish priests

[TheLionFarm]

Oh but what haplogroups are the confirmed iron age Levite? Let alone original bronze age ones... Did you find haplogroups of Ancient Levi sons.. if so what are they?

[hansfrankfurter]

Is there any evidence that the Levites actually existed?

[FirstNationsPride]

I am a 41% match to Hofni from 1170 BC in Egypt of the Tribe of Levi. Is this the confirmed Hophni the Son of Eli the brother of Phinehas in the Bible. If so I thought he died in Israel when He was slaughtered by the Philistines? Or perhaps a relative of Hophni while they were still in Egypt?

[joshuamartinpryce]

A son of God is made in the image of Jesus.

[absofsteele]

I am a Levi, we are nothing special. We are just a conduit for the people who choose to believe in the God of Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Moshe, and Yoshua aka Jesus.
