  1. * - Great circle distances calculated from the three alternatives for their origin
  2. ** - Based on the 14 populations (excluding Ethiopian Jews) in the autosomal matrix
  3. *** - Based on the 10 populations (excluding Ethiopian Jews) common to all 4 matrices
  4. **** - When the Italians are removed, the correlation still remains very high, 0.904.
