Question: Could somebody have 1/3 ancesters of the nobility? In other words, could there be a individual whos ancesters are in one thirds of nobile descent?

1/3 is 2/6 is 4/12.

The formular for the largest possible number of ancesters is
2^n

While n is the number of generations backward. You have one father and one mother, because n=1 2^1=2.
You have, I hope, 4 different grand-parents 2^2=4.
The serie of this numbers go: 1,2,4,8,16.
No room for a 12. Bad luck?
Not necessarly because 2^4 is the generation of the grand-grand-partens.

Could it possible, what somebody lose 4 different grand-grand-partens due to merriage of cousins?
Yes it could, if it happend two times, right?

So, by abstract thinking, we came to the conclusion that it could be possible that one person is of 1/3 nobility descent.

In this way, you would lost 4/16 = 25% of your potential ancesters 4 Generations ago by cousin marriage.

Please note that there is a different explaination what happend to Gilgamesh by Dr. Irving Finkel:
https://youtu.be/zNNaZ110ee4?t=343

He talked about ghosts but it is clear that the same conceptional relation can be tranfered to Gods or Goddes and mortal humans.

What do you think?

For the context, within the Gilgamesh-Epic, there is the claim that Gilgamesh is 2/3 human and 1/3 God.
That was my startpoint of reasoning about this matter.

There are a limited number of genes, so yes, due to random chance you could end up 1/3 nobel
If you mean via cultural norms then no, because there isn't a set standard

>There are a limited number of genes, so yes, due to random chance you could end up 1/3 nobel

But nobility has nothing to do with genes as such but with the genealogical lineage.
It can be possible, by random chance, that any gen of the initial nobility has disappeared while the predicate of nobility is still hold by the family, by the virtue of the family history, the lineage.
