I think we should at least have mappings between the two (I can help with this).
But I think it would be useful to have more background documentation on the hancestro page: http://obofoundry.org/ontology/hancestro - what are the relevant advantages of one over the other? Is hANCESTOR only intended for GWAS? Why?

https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols/ontologies/ncit/terms?iri=http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.obolibrary.org%2Fobo%2FNCIT_C17049
[aside: I think the name of the root class in NCIT is problematic, see https://github.com/NCI-Thesaurus/thesaurus-obo-edition/issues/60]

This might help other communities trying to find a vocabulary to use for concepts such as ethnicity: https://github.com/GenomicsStandardsConsortium/mixs/issues/59
