There was no I* found in mesolithic Sweden. The two samples that weren't I2 were simply I. They did not test any of the SNPs phyloequivalent to M253, none of the SNPs that define I2, I2a, I2b, or I2c; nor did they test all of the I-defining SNPs.
The I2-M423 individuals were subsequently...
That farming arrived in Scandinavia from continental Europe at the same time I1 begins to expand from continental Europe, I think, is no coincidence. Scandinavia was likely sparsely populated then, which would for the relatively high frequency of I1 there today. You're sick about arguing the...
It looks like all the major haplogroups in Europe underwent rapid neolithic expansion, not just I1, which I think is consistent with a change in lifestyle or better farming and pastoralism, not necessarily better reproductive fitness or extermination of other groups. These haplogroups just...
It is my understanding that the linguistic datings of the fracturing of PIE into its subsequent daughter languages and such is really the major constraint in our understanding of the people of Europe - one which places the greatest constraints on dates. So I must ask, how exactly do you date...
L22 did not expand from Scandinavia but rather into it and subsequently into western Finland. Scandinavian I1 has a bias toward L22, but not necessarily the converse.
I'd also love to see a citation for an age estimate of proto-Germanic of 4 kybp. Your conjectures are just awful.
You still...
How exactly are you able to claim that in northern India, everyone is pretty much German or Polish? I've not seen any such claim previously, nor have I seen data or analyses to support such a claim. This is ludicrous.
I'm not sure how you arrived at 15% for the frequency of I1 in the US...
I think it's very important to emphasize here that L22 is not Scandinavian, nor is Scandinavian I1 wholly L22+. When I look at the data available at the FTDNA I1 project, a bit over half of Swedish I1 is L22+; a tad less than half in Norway is L22+, and about one third of Danish I1 is L22+...
Refer to pp 245-249 for STR values.
Haplogroup "Y1" is predicted to be I2b.
Haplogroup "Y2" is predicted to be I2b.
Haplogroup "Y3" is predicted to be R1b.
Haplogroup "Y5" is predicted to be R1a.
Haplogroup "Y6" is predicted to be I2b.
Haplogroup "Y4" is likely I2b but has a whopping 5 STRs...
I really wish you would quit asserting such statements as fact. They aren't. Not even close. I shall henceforth insist that L11 is a marker of trisomy. Why? Because it is.
We're talking about a dispersal and expansion millennia before these Germanic tribes came into existence. I1-bearing people may well have played a role in their formation and identity, but so did others. To say XX tribe == ZZ haplogroup is pointless. By the time we see various identifiable...
I'd say these tribes formed in situ, which means that "Goths" would be I1, I2, R1a, R1b, etc. Most I1 would then not be Gothic, having expanded millennia earlier; and Goths therefore need not be I1.
There were no Goths or Aestii 5000 years ago. The expansion from a south Baltic or more central European locus would have occurred far in advance of the formation of these tribal identities. These tribes most certainly contained numerous paternal and maternal lineages.
Your opinion is wrong. What I am inferring from is the current distribution of I1's clades and their relationships to each other (e.g., CTS6364* is strongly distributed in Poland and from CTS6364 we come to L22 which has a strong northern bias from which you get to Z74 which is essentially a...
If IJ represent a separate hominid lineage, then F must represent some very archaic hominid, and A and B must be, what, australopithecus? So K then is the only homo sapiens branch? Yeah, that makes sense.
On a separate note, you can plug many of those rs SNPs into your 23andme data and get...
