I counted only four T1a2 like us in the y T ancient list, some cool Romans, ... and even a Viking ...
You need to take care as some scientific papers call T1a2 ...as T1a1b...like below ( T1a1 is T1a1a in these papers ).....difference is either a or b
I3403 ( 147 ± 92 yBP )
Y-DNA: T1a1b1a1b-Y21207
mtDNA: X2d
This sample is your R39 as per above
another example below of a T1a2 noted as T1a1b
CL23 ( 1310 -1380 yBP )
Phase: I
Y-DNA: T1a1b1a1-CTS6071 (x Y21207, CTS7303)
mtDNA: H
.................................
this below is now noted as T1a2
[h=3]Tepe Hissar C ( 4100 yBP - Bronze Age ) Tepe Hissar Culture[/h]I2512 ( 4265 ± 25 yBP / 4846 yBP )
with this summary
While the original I haplogroups appear to go back to the Magis of Zarathustra and BMAC culture, the latter T1a2 haplogroup must hail back to the Median Magi from the West. T1a2 or (T L131) has been found as far East as the Volga-Ural region of Russia and Xinjiang in north-west China. T1a2 penetrated into the Pontic-Caspian Steppe of Eurasia during the Neolithic, and became integrated to the indigenous R1a peoples (Proto Indo Iranians) before their expansion to Central Asia during the Bronze Age.
To me , it looks like around the Caspian sea originates or group ..............i always thought it was on the eastern side near the Aral sea
