Native American DNA or Y-DNA Haplogroup Q
Y-DNA HAPLOGROUP Q (M242) Haplogroup Q (M242) is one of the two branches of P1 (M45). The sister haplogroup is R (M207). This haplogroup is believed to have originated around the Altai Mountains, South Central Siberia region area approximately 17,000 to 31,700 years ago. This haplogroup has over a dozen major subclades, identified in modern […]

Y-DNA Haplogroup D – Tibet , Japan , Andaman Islands
Haplogroup D (M174) is a Y-chromosome haplogroup. Both D and E have their lineages exhibiting the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) M168, present in all Y-chromosome haplogroups with an exception of haplogroup A and B. The origins of Haplogroup D is believed to be Asia some 60,000 years ago and while they possess a distinct polymorphism with […]

Papua New Guinea – Haplogroups M-P256 and S-M230
When Homo Sapiens decided to leave Africa ….OK, let’s skip around 40-50 thousand years of a journey and talk about Haplogroup K2 (K-M526), who ended up in southeast Asia around 47,000-55,000 years BP . Let’s call a guy, who’s gene mutated somewhere in SE Asia and belonged to Haplogroup K2 – Kadumba. This Kadumba guy […]

Haplogroup E1b1 or Mediterenean and Sub-Saharan DNA Comparison
Y- HAPLOGROUP E1b1 (E-P2) E1b1 (E-P2) the most dominant Y-chromosome haploid in Africa. E-P2 is likely to have originated in the Ethiopian highlands of East Africa, as this is the place with the high frequency of ancestral sub-clades of this haplogroup. E-P2 diverged into two predominant sub-clades; E1b1a (E-V38) and E1b1b (E-M215) approximately 24-27,000 years […]
