Get Your Results
We'll extract your DNA and analyze it against the world's largest database of African DNA to determine your ancestry. This process takes approximately 8-12 weeks. Once your results are ready, you can access them through your account.
Explore Your Ancestry
Now that you know where you're from, you can study the people and the country, travel, adopt a new name, or incorporate new traditions into your family. Then, you can engage other family members to take an African Ancestry test and learn about more of your roots.
