From my research, U5b1b1 is an uncommon haplogroup. I know researches are also baffled at its distribution across Europe and North Africa. It continues to pop up randomly so it doesn't surprise me...

I am U5b1b1-T16192C as well, and my maternal line is from western Ukraine. The spread of U5b1b1 is very strange to me. Its wide range across Europe and North Africa is interesting.

I wonder if the Younger Dryas 11,600 kya to 12,800 kya specifically, has anything to do with the astonishing spread of U5b1b1.

So I tried getting more information on another forum so I will try my luck here. I am wondering if there are any details or even an educated guess on what group of people these may belong to that...
