Its a nice idea for a thread, everyone can share their theories on why they descend from their maternal line, what cultures, events, and migrations lead to your result ?
Mine is T2e1, it has a European Mediterranean, East Meditteranean, and North European distribution, low levels from 0-3%. In Europe, the oldest occurrence is Neolithic farmers.
Some age estimates for T2e are 10000 to 8000 years ago, well within the context of the Neolithic age, given its association with European farmers, its presence in the Levant, Egypt, and Arabia is due to the southern movement of Anatolian farmer ancestry to the Natufians, combining with them to form PPNB ancestry.
It also has a lesser distribution in Iran, Pakistan, and Central Asia, we know from the recent south Asian paper that Anatolian farmer ancestry reached this far into Asia.
