Bejeezus you are right about the middle eastern. Honduras and El Salvador recieved a large wave of Christian Arabs at the start of 1900s and continued during the century after the fall of the Ottoman Empire and other civil wars in Palestine Territory and from what is now called Syria, Lebanon which where territories created by the U.N. Brits and U.S. Im from Honduras and my great grandmother came from Bethelem, Palestine in the early 1900s. In El Salvador the current San Salvador Mayor Neyib Bukele is of Arab Descent from his fathers side. Just in Honduras there is at least a community of 250,000 to 400,000 arab descendents. Im not so sure about in El Salvador.

+J Molina I forgot to go more in depth about Middle Eastern influence in Latin America. I get mistaken for Middle Eastern all the time. One of our past presidents in El Salvador, Antonio Saca is of middle eastern background, and Shafik Handal, a politician as well, is from where your great grandmother came from, Bethelem, Palestine. So middle eastern is comparable to Honduras. I have many cousins on 23andme and Ancestry from Honduras as well. South America has it big time as well. They are really successful people. Even other Salvadorans say I look Musulman, not indigenous looking. They are surprised when I speak Spanish and tell them.

Also it can be from the Spanish Conquistadors because Spain was ruled by Muslims from North Africa and the Middle East for almost 800 years.

It depends on what you want to do. You'll get more dna matches with Ancestrydna and it'll help you find ancestors better. 23andme might be more accurate and give you specific locations your ancestors might have lived. Myheritage is just cheaper than both and it's the third major company, but less accurate. I did Ancestrydna first.

Salvadoreña by blood, would love to check my ancestry! My great grandfather was half Italian/Greek and hence our family has Italian surname ever since arriving to El Salvador. My other half of family were very "Spanish" with their blue/green eyes, blonde hair, fair, wealthy property owners back in the day. Would love to know how much native I have too, so cool! My kids would be super interesting too! Spanish, salvadoren, Greek, Italian from my side, and German, English, Italian, Ukranian from their fathers side! 🤪
