  • What is your subclade though???

  • I have a question.

    How did you determine which Haplogroup you genetically correspond to? What service did you use?

  • @AlberikAlf I used Ancestry's service. I think next time I would go with Family Tree DNA though, as they have a larger database for comparisons.

  • I am from Kazakhstan & there are alot of people with european or indoeuropean DNA here... almost 40% of population... but I think I have C3 haplogroup... haplogroup of mongolian warriors

  • My Y-DNA Haplogroup is I

    My mtDNA Haplogroup is H

    European on both counts; however, my grandchildren are very mixed.

  • E3A or E1b1a

  • @SudanCarib Same here.. predominately north african & mediterranean.

  • @FriedChkn4Eva We are of north african descent? Oh i did not know that. i thought we are of sahelian west african descent .lol

  • I'm Haplogroup W...I can find very little information about my haplogroup.

  • Comment removed

  • I'm J1

  • Im haplogroup K I just found out today...It did surprise me...

  • my Y-DNA is I1, my mtDNA is J1a1a1b, my father's mtDNA is J2b.

  • my y chromosome haplogroup is r1b1a2a1a1b3 and my mtdna haplogroup is J.

    my y chromsome result surprised me since it apparently originates in the alps (france, north italy, etc.) while my farthest paternal ancestor comes from ireland.

  • I am haplogroup H3c which is a subgroup of H3 which is a subgroup of H. So hey there cousin! :D Anyway, no I am not surprised at my haplogroup. I knew it would be European. And wow...I can't believe some of the idiotic comments I see on here!

  • that is the same with my kids, I am Greek and their dad is Chinese, Greek people say they look Chinese and Chinese people say they look Greek.

  • 70 % of brits are thought to have haplogroup R1b1a2 and 50 % of europeans

  • I guess the European genetics in her was more dominant then? Whenever asians mix, the asian genetics tend to fade. Blasians (black asian mix) look almost only black, european/asian mostly the same thing. Maybe that shows in her case with the haplo group?

  • People don't seem to get the concept of mixed people. I am mixed too.  My Y haplogroup/subclade is E2b1, and my mitochondria haplogroup/sublcade is J1c.

    BTW...I didn't know that you were Asian. From my first at you, I thought that you were Hispanic. Many Hispanics are mixed with European and Native American. I am a mixture of African,European,Native American, and Ashkenazi Jew..

  • mine is D2

  • Who is better for the mankind Hitler or mahatma gandhi ??

  • I my self saw some little kids in some villages of the eastern indian kashmir they look yellow hair , green eyes and very light red skin , is this possible Scientifically ??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • you look Inuit.=)

  • Comment removed

  • I dont think you like a mongol rapist at all. Looking forward to finding my haplogroup. Have my fingers crossed it would be X, that would be SWEET!

  • General distribution of Y-chromosome haplogroups:

    African: haplogroups A, B, and E

    Middle-Eastern: haplogroups J and E

    South Asian Indian: haplogroups C5,H,L,R2

    East European: haplogroups R1a and N3

    West European: haplogroup R1b

    South European: haplogroups R1b, E, J

    East Asian: haplogroups C1, C3, D1, D2, D3, O1, O2, O3, N1, Q1a1

    Native American: haplogroups Q1a3a, C3b

  • @TheXanian can you give me your scientific source or your scientific reference please ?

  • @TheXanian some of your haplogroups are extremely wrong. Haplogroups R* did evolved somewhere in the Middle East so how is it to be European? This is my choice

    African: A, B and E

    Near Eastern: J, E, G, R1a, R1b, R2, I and T

    South Asian: H, L, R2, R1a, J, T, G and C

    West European: R1b, G

    East European: R1a, R2, N, I and J

    South European: R1b, E, J, G and T

  • @TheXanian Placing haplogroup by geography is so stupid ..

  • My haplogroup is I1 north europe (scandinavia)

  • My haplogroup is A.

  • Comment removed

  • haplogroup O3 here I'm

  • I just found my female line test. I'm haplogroup U2. I'm kind of proud that it's not the most common European group. I haven't found out much about it yet, but it's said to be Northeastern European. Some in N India and ancient Egypt had it.

    The only ancestry I know of is Northwestern Europe, mostly English. I know as far back as the wife of the minister on the Mayflower. 13 generations. I must have the same MCDNA as a lot of people in the US.

  • @melora72

    That's interesting. mtDNA U2 is mostly common in South Asia, it's presence there has to do with the expansion of hunter-gathers from Southern European Russia.

  • Hmmm i see alot of people here don't know the difference from maternal haplogroup and paternal haplogroup. Like she said her maternal haplogroup is h which belong to her mother.

    I recently got my test back from nationalgenographic and my Y-DNA is C3(M217) which was a surprise to me. Both my parents are from china and then migrated to Vietnam which where I was born. I assume they where of southern chinese decent since they speak cantonese, Didn't expect a C3 from the test was expecting a O3

  • @SuperAlienkiller

    Y-DNA H highest frequencies: Romani people & populations of South Asia

    ''is believed to have arisen in India between 20,000 and 30,000 years ago and represents the main Y-haplogroup of the indigenous paleolithic inhabitants of India, because it is the most frequent Y-haplogroup of tribal populations (25-35%). On the other hand, its presence in upper castes is quite rare (ca. 10%).''

  • @SuperAlienkiller

    Don't get confused. There's a big difference between Y-DNA H (paternal) and mtDNA H (maternal).

    Y-DNA H is a paternal lineage marker which originates from the Indian Subcontinent, and outside of India, is found dominant among the Romani gypsies.

    mtDNA H is a maternal lineage marker which is a European marker. It is not common in the Middle East or in India. Most Europeans belong to mtDNA H.

    The woman in this video looks more like a Central Asian (Mongolian/Uzbek).

  • Is there a way you can find out without purchasing one of those Kits? A free way? Cheers if you can help.

  • I don't look European because I am only HALF European. HALF Chinese.

  • @climbyourtree

    2 smart races.

  • @climbyourtree

    I want to marry a mix chinese!  pick me! Doi doi doi!

  • mtdna: H

    y-dna: Q

    Nationality: Norwegian

    Both parents norwegian, some roots in Denmark/Germany on mothers side. Figure this goes back to mammoth hunters a ridiculous amount of time ago..

  • Someone ( WHITE ) said the future of the glob is for the Asian race , the physically pride is for the Negro race , the nirvanic life is for the middle Indian type ( Sanskrit ) , the south indian type is as the only mini race in the world and history , the monotheism culture is 4 the Hebrew culture and the only respectable nation in the shit middle east is the nation of the state of ARMENIA ,,, but 4 euro or WHITE race nothing except racism , Nazism , Apartheid and Debauched and pornism LOL

  • @RealPinkDreams Yeah whilst all throughout Asia & Africa you have a culture of rape, cannibalism, barbarianism, corruption, greed & poverty. We got past that over 1500 years ago in Europe, love.

  • @NewAccountFFS the first civilizations found ONLyyyyyyyyyyy in asia , nile valley and mexico with peru but nothing found in the lovely Europe . KISS

  • erm.... i checkt haplogroup H ... it isnt European n u dont look like european

  • @AsiaUnitAsia The Hunchback of Notre-Dame was pure european lol

  • H7a1 here. I haven't been able to trace my direct-maternal line out of my home-state though. I am English,French,German,Irish, Scottish, Scots-Irish, Swiss,and Welsh.

  • @Ataralas Fuck me you're a right mix! When you say Irish, if your family is Protestant then they would be of English/Scottish descent most likely, due to colonialism.

  • I'll have the reults in 4 to 6 weeks from Genebase.

  • MtDNA: Hsomthing

    Alot of Italian, Turkish, Morrocan, and Lebanese haha :D

  • I2a2.........

  • y-dna: haplogroup q

    ethnicity: norwegian

    Marker of siberian origin. Made me read up on history as there's a theory that the vikings came from Russia around the black sea - and that is the homeland of Odin

  • I have a feeling that i belong to a master race, i'm the only left though... I think i'm the only one left from atlantis. God i love drugs!

  • My Y Haplogroup is R1A1 and my MTDNA haplogroup is L3D.

    My Y hap has a lot of matches in England and Scotland which they say is linked to the Normans and Vikings and my MTDNA hap has matches in Cameroon and Senegal primarily Fulani.

  • I had mine tested through the National Geographic Genographic project. I found out that my mtDNA is from haplogroup H too. I'm not really surprised by the results since I can trace my mothers line back to a woman in New York in 1799 with the last name Woods. Woods is probably an English surname but since I was never able to find her parents I didn't know for sure. I plan on having my brothers Y DNA tested someday to find out about that side.

  • Y haplogroup- E1b1b1, which is surprising since my paternal side comes from Scotland.

    MtDna haplogroup -H, I had a high resolution match with 1.3% of the people tested from Wales so I guess my maternal line is from the ancient Britons.

    My maternal great grandfather's Y chromosome was tested (through a cousin) and he had haplogroup I which is a little surprising since he was English, I guess he must be descended from the viking raiders or Normans.

  • @RaynauddeChatillon Or the actual English peoples? You know the Anglo-Saxons.. or one of the "Celtic" tribes that were absorbed by the Anglo-Saxons?

  • @NewAccountFFS

    Could be, that line gets traced back to Hampshire, which I believe was ancient Wessex. I don't know what the typical Y chromosome for people from ancient Saxony was, I assume it would be whatever is most common in some place like central England.

  • @RaynauddeChatillon Yep, Hampshire falls within the borders of Wessex (West Saxons) who were the most powerful Kingdom in England before the Unification. I'll remind you, though, that the Teutonic (Or Germanic, whichever you prefer) tribe known as the Saxons didn't originate from modern-day Saxony. The 3 main Germanic (Not the same as German) tribes that came to England were Angles (Who we're named after), Saxons & Jutes.. there were a few more as well ;D But Best of luck looking further into it

  • I'm East Indian my Y-Dna Haplogroup is R1a and my Mt-Dna is M awesome findings R1a is a Major European Haplogroup found in Europe and India, M is a major Indian Mtdna Haplogroup found in the Middle East SOuth Europe India China Malaysia Phillipines

  • me too via natgeo

  • hi i got my results today both paternal and maternal my paternal is haplogroup e my maternal is haplogroup c and on the maternal side their are 4 mutations which are haplo group cz haplogroup h haplogroup hvo and haplogroup v ive always identified as black so this now informs me that there are various nationalities cultures and races that share the same haplogroups and the term black when it comes to race can mean many things.females can only test their moms side so they will need their brother

  • I read some where that British are Haplogroup R. They are closely related to the Basque of south-western France and north-east Spain.

  • @Thudothwacker

    Haplogroup R has different types.

    British people are normally R1b, while East europeans and Russians are dominant R1a, same as in central Asia and India.

  • @xxxJezebelxxx Well R1b has been found in Scotland & Police, more-so than England & Wales.

  • @NewAccountFFS

    Yeah, as I said, R1b is the common Y-marker of Western Europe, it's frequency decreases further into Eastern Europe/Middle East. R1a is the most common one in the Indian subcontinent, it makes up over 50% of the Y-lineages there, which is similar to the frequencies seen in Russia, Ukraine & Poland.

    Both R1a and R1b originate from a common ancestor somewhere in the Middle East approx 30, 000 kya.

  • @xxxJezebelxxx Yeah, when I said Police I meant Poland.. don't even ask how I managed that xD.

  • H Haplogroup originated from Southwest Asia Via Middle east . Check it on wikipedia. I have haplogroup I .

  • Hi

    I'm from haplogroup H too. No sudden shock here , most of my ancestors are from western europe.

  • Can you find out anything about your father's side DNA? It looks like your father is not European because of your looks, so would your DNA show that too? Females get two x chromosomes so how can Scientists differentiate the two sides?

  • Hi, I'm wondering what you can tell me about my haplogroup G m201other the what I've already know from the genome project report. Being a Puerto Rican from NY. Mother mentioned her folks came from Spain. Not sure about my dad other then he was from P.R as well. But what I was wondering because of a new interest in Separdic Jews if you would be aware of a connection of any kind. Thanks . You can see a pic of me on facebook.find joe roman

  • Oh never mind mtDNA not Y-chromosome.

  • Haplogroup how do you have Haplogroup H?? I read it originated in India 25,000-30,000 years ago but can be found in Roma people in Europe..

  • mtDNA haplogroup = W

    Ancestral homeland: north India (Punjab)

    I can't seem to find much info on the W clan, other than the fact that it originated somewhere near Iran and is western Eurasian, but not really found in India except for regions like Kashmir, Gujarat & Punjab...there's not much info on how it got into India and when.. any info on this would appreciated thnx

  • @xxxJezebelxxx

    W and X is often south Caucasian, with Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Iran, little in Pakistan and in India, nonexistent of course in Europe, it seems to be linked in Y dna G and F.

  • @polarisreseau

    Thanks.

    But are you sure haplo W is nonexistent in Europe??? On familytreeDNA project there are a lot of Europeans from all over Europe with hg W. I got matches with people from Italy all the way to Finland/Scandinavia!!

  • @polarisreseau

    WX is originairSe of the South Caucasus, I am germanic T1a Baltic Sea Prussia by my grandmother (Russian German). It was MT dna of the female of ancient slavonic

  • @polarisreseau

    My dads paternal haplogroup came back as R1a and his mtDNA is also W, like me. He is from the Punjab region but lived in Delhi before emigrating to Canada.

  • @Abduhi Interesting observation. My mother has light brown hair and blue eyes. Pale skin. I've traced her family tree extensively and she is mostly of English descent, with a little bit of German. I guess I take after my father, who is Chinese. Chinese will tell me that I look very European. So I feel I'm a mix of both.

  • @Abduhi look at some portuguese people. they can look like this.

  • @Abduhi She definitely looks half white.. wouldnt have guessed she's half Chinese though.

  • @Abduhi

    Are you some sort of idiot ? what is your answer supposed to mean ?

  • Well, as the lady says on the video this DNA tests reveal only a really tiny part of someones DNA information-

  • Comment removed

  • What sub group of H are you from H1,H2 etc, If your H1 one that make up 40% of haplogroup H, some of which can be found in the middle east and more so north africa.

  • well a lot of people have european in them they went all around the world.

  • Just got mt mtdna test results in & I am also haplogroup H . Hey cousin lol

  • Correction. As a biologist/chemist myself with a Masters in Public Health, I can firmly say there were no people in Europe 20k to 30k years ago. Europe was under 2 miles of ice. This can be confirmed by googling the last ice age of Europe . This ice age did not recede until 15k to 18k years ago which, according to Mitochondrial Dna, is about the time the Caucasian race (a 6k to 12k year old race) began to walk.

  • my Y-DNA is E3b1 im from Somalia

    I don't know about my MtDNA.

  • My haplogroup (mtDNA) is also Haplogroup H, I tested with Genographic. I am predicted to belong to sub-clade H5a1.

    This is really suprising, as I am a fullblooded Somali and didn't expect to have European roots thousands of years ago. Pretty cool video by the way :)

  • My haplogroup is also H, I tested with Genographic. Predicted to be H5a1

    I was really shocked by it as I am fullblood Somali (East Africa) and didn't expect to have European roots thousands of years ago. Pretty cool video by the way. :)

  • Mine is L3D I was born in Morocco in north Africa but I do have a lot of matches in Spain, Portugal and of course Africa. I am an Arab but I do also have a Jewish conection. I was gonna ask you about the markers. I got 12, 25, 37 and 67. I have people on my list sharing these markers except the 37. I would like to know more about markers. Thanks

  • OMG british are our family, the eternal enemy IS MY BROTHER, hahahaa

  • Hello climbyourtree, do you know igenea? Its the daughter company of familytreedna of europe.

  • My father Y haplogroup is C3(m217)

    My mother mtDNA is D

    Homeland:Russia(Siberia)

    Ethnicity:Buryat-Mongolian

    Can someone give me more info on my haplogroups other that I can find on NatGeo Genealogy.

  • @Balaganow

    C3 is the Mongolian group is also at Indian of Andes and Central America more precisely, in the north of America they find so copiously Q and sometimes accompanied with R1. QR groups native to Central Asia

  • I had mtDNA haplogroup HV.

  • @Tamar1973

    HV is the old haplogroupe Indo-European is often in the country basques and in Germany, but possible partoiut in Europe, it accompanies DNA R1b Y.

  • H is a down stream lineage of HV which downstream of R0 which downstream of R which downstream of N which is down stream of L3

    L3 --------- East Africa

    N ---------- Near East

    R ---------- Anatolia

    R0 -------- South Arabia

    HV -------- North Arabia

    H --------- Europe

  • My Y-DNA is Haplogroup I (M170)

    It is said it has links to the Vikings (my dad has blue eyes) and can be found in other areas like southern France and some Celtic population. I am of Irish descent (mostly).

  • I-M170 means you belong to the native Europid race, today its a minority but it used to be the majority of Europe before the R1 Eurasid invasion that came down on EUrope from Central Asia

  • Thanks

  • @thestrongtiger82

    I for Y DNA it is aborigine of Europe (Scandinavia, Finland, Yugoslavia and little to basques, brittons and Sardinia. Woman for I Y ADN are UK mt ADN(group d ' Ötzi).

    The majority of Indo-Europeans are R1 (basques-celtes-germains-slave­s)

  • You mentioned that haplogroup H started in Europe. That cannot be proven.

  • Where can you go to find out about the haplogroup? I am very curious. All I know, is my father and mother both have Korean blood and Japanese blood of Yamato Japanese and Ainu Eskimo. It is funny, I turned out to look like I was Japanese, Korean, and Native American.

  • You can get your haplogroup tested through a genetic testing service. One that seems to be popular is FamilyTree DNA. I tested using ancestry recently but next time will probably use FamilyTree DNA since their database of testers is larger. I would like the ability to find potential "matches" or genetic cousins. I'd be interested in hearing your results if you do decide to test!

  • Wow, your really pretty. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.

  • my Y-DNA Haplogroup is I1

    my mtDNA Haplogroup is L3

    Homeland: USA

    What can you determine about my Haplogroup?

  • Interesting. So if I'm not mistaken, Y-DNA I1 is currently found mostly in Scandinavia and mtDNA L3 mostly in East Africa. Did the results surprise you or were they what you expected? Do you have recent, known Scandinavian and East African ancestry or was this heritage a surprise?

  • I am African American with verbal history pertaining to Native American ancestry. I never expected the Scandinavian (Viking) Y-DNA results. I read that the I in I1 stands for Invaders. L3 is also found in West Africa also.

  • you must be a black person with a white ancestor? Or half white and black?

    It could be your decended from an afrcian slave and some where along the line they mated with a white man

  • @videosRfun I1? your blood is partly the same as mine, again, another "lost" brother mixed with other blood and cultures. Not a bad thing, but good.

  • i dont care your pretty marry me

  • You're the first person in East Asia posting I think! Interesting results!

  • @climbyourtree hey i must say that you're very beautiful young lady and can not believe that you're an european ! if you were walking in Mongolia,i'd think that you're one of us !

    Anyways... i belong to C3 which is known for Genghis Khan's.

  • 1st vanished religion from india , 1st Vn dynasty from egypt , 1st Va civilized ppl from iraq , 1st civilized race is chinese so wht da euro ppl gave to da world ? nothin just ww1 n ww2 n porn movies

  • who cares what f*** haplogroup you are? Identity crisis management or what?

  • mtDNA Haplogroup X2 here. I match mostly folks from north Africa and the middle east but my known ancestors are from southern Germany.

  • I'm a Chinese guy and I never tested my haplogroup,but I think that my haplogroup is O2 or O3.

  • Let me know what you find out. I may have my dad tested (he is Chinese).  I'm curious as to what his y- and mtDna haplogroups will be.

  • @VivalaChina

    he can also be R or C with strong risks and a bit N

    Q=Pékin, R=tocharian (bashkyr, uigur), (Siberian) C=MONGOL, N=JAPON (AÏNU), Korea

    To amérindiens the same groups, Eurasian meet

  • My y-dna haplogroup is j2a4b and my mtdna haplogroup is v1. My ancestry is German and Scottish.

  • I had my Y-Chromosome done and came out I1* (with no further mutations to place me in any subgroup, essentially a direct descendant of the original I1) I also had the Oppenheimer "Origins of the British" Clan test done on those results and came out I1a-7b "Ian" Supposedly descended from Pre-Roman colonists in the Northumbria area from Schleiswig-Holstein / Frisia around 2000 BC.

  • That's an interesting one... Are you yourself in the UK? If your ancestor(s) were pre-Roman colonists in the British isles, does that make group them with the Celts somehow or am I lumping together unrelated groups?

    Ancient British history is so interesting... and confusing... :)

  • No not Celtic, they are R1b. The Northumbria area (near York) was populated by Angles from Southern Denmark, and coastal areas down to the Netherlands (Angeln to Friesland directly across the N. Sea from that part of the UK). York was originally Jorvik. The same Angles that came later with the Anglo-Saxons but was an earlier Pre Roman colonization rather than the later Viking Raiders but the same people geneticly. Britain was NOT all Celtic before the Romans & Vikings.

  • Oh and No we've been in America since the late 1600's but came from the UK. Royalists supporters from York who left after loosing the English Civil War. As were most of the original Virginia Colonists. Anti royals went to New England.

  • @skyshark75

    there is two R1b: R-ht15 (basque-celte-saxon) and R-ht35 (tocharien, tcherkesses, dacien)

    Rht15 gives two also P312 (Celtic-Basque) U106 (Saxon, Dutch)

  • @skyshark75

    it is amusing because I have the haplogroupe Y dna R1b who corresponds to the invader Indo-Europeans of the Holstein (Saxon). But I am blended with pout Greek the mother of my father and with Prussian and Basque, what sounds an indo-european mt adn T1a (baltic).

    But I am French without the single drop of standard French blood.

    We would be ancient neighbours!; - D

  • Tested my Y chromosome and belong to Haplogroup R1b1b2 sub tree. Also a long lineage who lived in Europe thousands of years.

  • @dutch2man

    R1b1b2 =(basque-celte-saxon)

    .eupedia com/europe/origins

  • My haplogroup mtdna was K ,K is not a common group but it's mainly found in europe around italy ,austria ,well lets just say around the alps ,but it also found in the british isles to which did not surprise me because my mother has irish roots,also it is found to a lesser extent in north Africa

  • My mtdna haplogroup is also K. Also here in Finland the H and U are the more common haplogroups and only small minority has K. Maybe the haplogroup K could explain why I look more mediterranean than a normal Finn, although my Y-dna was N which is very common in Finn males. Well I am still little skeptical, even though that was a reason for the whole test for myself anyway.

  • Cool we are very distantly related lol.yeah k is a scattered group  certainly not found to much in finland ,but i have not did my y yet but since my origins seem to be western european on my fathers fathers side i expect it to be R1B becuase this is very common in western europe lke in spain,england,wales etc etc,but than again who knows i did not expect k mtdna ,but you being from finland k was even more unexpected

  • @finlanderxx

    Y dna R1b vith mt DNA HV (basque-celte-saxon) IE

    Y dna R1a and mt DNA JT (slavonic, baltic) IE

    Y dna I with mt DNA UK (baltic, finn, francia, yugoslavia) aborigen

  • @0TheSeeker

    the ancient haplogroupe K is aborigen of Europe.

    the European méga haplogroupe mt R has 3 branches

    Scandinavian UK=aborigène, yugoslav), JT=indo-européen (aryan, baltic), HV=indo-européen (celte-basque-saxons, Caucasian)

  • i will do the test...

  • r1b1b2 scots irish here and likely from norway before that.This is all very interesting and confusing too.

  • My y-dna haplogroup is J2a4 and mt-dna haplogroup K (predicted K1a).

  • I tested my mtDNA and it was Haplogroup A, which was extremely surprising, since we're Jewish..raised in Sephardic Jewish customs..my dad's Paternal DNA is R1b1b2 and his Maternal DNA is Haplogroup C. Which I was pleased to find out that most Maya from Guatemala have that haplogroup. It was a shock to discover that his paternal is R1... that's like in England, no?

  • Interesting results! I looked up R1b1b2 and this is what Wikipedia has to say: R1b1b2 frequency reaches 10% in Algerian Arabs.[22]. R1b1b2-M269 has been found at a frequency of 15.2% in a sample of 33 individuals from northern Iran, and 6.0% in a sample of 117 people from southern Iran.[23]"

    It would be interesting to get several of your distant cousins to take the tests and see what kind of results they get. Or, join a yDNA group surrounding your surname and see how your results compare!

  • Well off course you will have R1b, what did you expect? If you are a Sephardic Jew?

  • @trinket01

    I think that it is of origin Spanish because it is the South America, Spanishes and English are very close cousins genetically, and basques, Irish and Scottish are brothers (R1b-SRY2627).

  • I turned out Haplogroup G (Y-DNA) which surprised me a bit. Because I am of Palestinian Arab decent and Haplogroup G is more common in non-Semitic speaking regions in the Near East like Iran, Turkey, Armenia and the Caucasus region.

  • That must have been an interesting discovery! Since my mtDNA was not a surprise, I'm sort of hoping that when I have a brother or my father do the Y-DNA test, that we find something really unexpected. Certainly makes things more interesting. :)

  • Yep, the result amused me a bit. I have a subgroup of G that is most frequent in Anatolia.

  • @Wabe28

    find G, G3 or R1b or J1; J2 in this region is normally the predominant haplogroupes and it is very banal!!!

    R1b=romain, Palestinian, J=juif, Arabic, G=turc, Caucasian

  • You are from India. Check the map Dny haplogroups. I have R1a haplogroup (Slav).

  • your asian haplogroup

  • Im Haplogroup H

  • You're the first other H I've heard from. I'm sure there are a ton of us though.

  • Oops. Actually there's another H'er up above!

  • where is a good place to send off for testing?

  • I think it really depends on what you're hoping to find and for what purpose. I can share my results from Ancestry DNA with you so you can get a look at what you would receive from them. Just PM me your email address. Next time I think I would use FamilyTree DNA as I believe the database is bigger and I'm interested in finding possible genetic cousins. I'll probably do that for my dad's side and get him or a brother to take the Y-DNA test.

  • My Y-Haplogroup is R1b1b2 and my MT-Haplogroup are J2. I come from Germany and my ancrestal were Teutons of both lines.

  • So these were results you were expecting?

  • No I  didi not expect those results.

  • Mine is N1c middle east.

  • Haplogroup N (Y-DNA)

  • Cool... I read that this is the ancestral haplogroup to most other haplogroups in existence!

  • It is an Siberian haplogroup

  • Oops. I confused it with the mtDNA group. Still cool though!

  • Great video. I am haplogroup Mtdna U6B.

    I was very surprised because my maternal side is from India.
