Heres a dna test of Antioquia 69% euro, 25% native, 6% african

Source you aboviously have no Idea of what your talking about because you've been wrong about everything you said so far.
And the test on PR I showed you is actualy pretty accurate, and theres no way you disprove that test And so far I've brought plenty of evidence to back up what I'm saying, you have not.
yeah, antioquia is very castizo.

Well said, I've even gave him multiple limks proving him wrong,

links like this
Dna test of PR shownig Pr's to be very tri racial around 63% euro, 21% afro, 15% Native.

Dna test on Antioquia, showing them to be mainly Euro predominant mestizo or castizo, 69% euro, 25% native and only 6% afro.

Colombia's ethic groups. This proves the Mestizo majority and the afro minority were pretty much isolated from each other, one in the mountains and one on the coasts.

-70%like I said, the average colombian mestizo is about 40-50% native american, 50-60% euro, and around 1-10% african. Afro colombians vary. some can be pure or predominantly african, but most are of mixed euro or indian blood or even multiracial. whites/castizos are around 65 70% euro 25-30% native american 1-10% african

Agreed, This test shows Medellin at 65% euro, 25% native and 9% african, also shows other Colombian cities as well that show even more of a mestizo mix.

See table s2

It's no use arguing with him he's obviously delusional.

Anyways, so your Puerto rican and Colombian mixed?, Where in PR and Colombia are both sides are of your family from?
