  • Excellently helpful. I hadn't considered I may be one of the Latins.

    • You do not need to be tested to find out your family history. They have places you can pay to track down your descendants and your family tree. I am not sure where to find them or how much you have to pay though.

    • You would need to be genetically tested to find out. Please keep in mind that because a person was a Roman citizen, it does not necessarily mean that they were from the Latin / Etruscan tribes.
      As previously stated, you are most likely to be predominantly an admixture of various Celtic tribes.
      So, I would recommend describing yourself in this way,
      Caucasoid, Celtic (be more specific should you be certain, if you like), and then list any admixtures that you are certain of.
      Who knows, however, your lineage might be predominantly from a different tribe (one or more of the Germanic tribes, for instance).
