If you have Native American ancestry on your direct paternal side (father<father<father<father etc) without any influence from females at all, Y-DNA tests can detect those origins. If you have maternal Native American ancestry or non-direct paternal Native American ancestry, autosomal tests like Family Finder MAY be able to detect it if it is not more than six generations back.
