HAPLOGROUP F comprises the vast majority of Y-DNA in the world (practically ALL OF THE WORLD MEN besides Africans)
This macrohaplogroup expanded 48000-42000 years ago and has changed susprisingly less (relative to this aforementioned population boom in Prehistory).
I estimated this limit dates through the dates of the 1st branching in the F geneologic tree (haplogroup G 48000 ya) and the youngest TMRCA of any branch (in this case haplogroup IJ 42000 ya).
This DATE COINCIDES with the estimate date of ORIGIN of FEMALE haplogroup U'2'3'4'7'8'9 (48000-42000 ya).
This shouldn't surprise any of us, haplogroup U has always been related to the origins of a lot of haplogroups:
-I and U5
-R1a and U5a, U2e and U4.
-J1 and K3 and U1 in the Caucasus.
-J2 exists in the same land as U7
-Finland (haplogroups N and I1) are 36% haplo U as per the '1000 genomes project'. Only Iran or Israel come close to that figure.
-The common ancestor of Q and R (P) was found in Yana site (Lake Baikal in eastern Siberia) with an unknown clade.
-The Jordan bedouins are high in U3, the Jews in K (both J1).
-U9 exists in Ethiopia,YEMEN and Pakistan (which suggests J1 too)
Even haplogroup E1b1 picked up U6 before expanding.
What surprises me is how little U there's is in the world compared to F.
It's like 85% F (declining) to 5% U (also declining).
A 1 to 17 proportion!!!
