Visualization of genetic distances, part n

Zack Ajmal has been taking his Reference 3 data set for a stroll over at the Harappa Ancestry Project. Or, more accurately, he's been driving his computer to crunch up ADMIXTURE results ascending up a later of K's. Because it is the Harappa Ancestry Project Zack's populations are overloaded a touch on South Asians. He managed to get a hold of the data set from Reconstructing Indian History. If you will recall this paper showed that the South Asian component which falls out of ancestry structure inference algorithms may actually be a stabilized hybrid of two ancient populations, "Ancestral North Indian" (ANI) and "Ancestral South Indian" (ASI).
