Yemaek or Yamaek (Korean pronunciation: [jemɛk]) was an ancient tribal group in the northern Korean Peninsula and Manchuria who are regarded by many scholars as the ancestors of modern Koreans.[1][2][3][4] According to iGENEA, a leading European genealogy service, their current research suggests that "modern Koreans are descended from the Yemaek people."[5] The Yemaek had ancestral ties to various Korean kingdoms including Gojoseon, Buyeo, Goguryeo, and tribes including Okjeo, Dongye (Ye), Yangmaek (양맥; 梁貊) and Sosumaek (소수맥; 小水貊).[6]
