Hello,
I received my results for the basic 23andme test and have two questions.
The last Y-DNA mutation I can see is M423 which is a marker for the Group I2a1b.
Does it mean that this is really the last muattion of my Y-DNA type or can I check my raw data to go deeper?
I found out that there are three further possible branches beign L161.1, L162 and L41.2 and am curious if I belong to one of these.
My other markers are:
I2a defining mutations - P37.2
I2 defining mutations - M438
I defining mutations - U179, M258
Can this information be used for an estimation of a more detailed Y-DNA analysis?
P37.2 is more common for north east Germany but M423 is marker most common in todays Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia. So how does this fit?
After all its all based on probablities and we build our assumptions on very little archeological data, I understand this, but non the less I have great fun with thinking about my quite distant genetic ancestors and imagine where they lived. The last 3 generations of my relatives are from todays Poland and Lithuania.
Any comments would be welcome as I am very new to this.
