For admixture f3 analyses, aimed to test for evidence of admixture in a target population, we computed the f3 statistic using all pairs of population from Europe (including Turkey/Greece, Italian peninsula and Iberian peninsula), Caucasus, Middle East, North Africa, and Subsaharan Africa (Table S7). For the outgroup f3 analyses, aimed to estimate the amount of shared drift between a pair of populations, we computed the f3 statistics between a Sardinian (Arzana or Cagliari) and another mainland population, while using the Mbuti individuals as the outgroup. Both f3 and D statistics were calculated using Admixtools v3.0 (ref. 62). Statistical significance was assessed using the default blocked jackknife implementation in Admixtools. Results were displayed geographically using ‘nps’ set of maps available through the OpenStreetMap package in R.
