I always copy my answer as I write it, if it's longer than 2 lines, just in case.



I'm not convinced, but it seems to make a lot of sense given the dominant Arab haplogroups (always under J1),...

Unless you can prove that a significant number of genes determining facial appearance are on the Y chromosome, I think any seeming resemblance between G2a is the result of cognitive bias.

Several DNA projects you can find online of Qureish descendants seem to confirm that (just Google "Quraysh DNA project").



J1 is a Middle Eastern Y-haplogroup, and it originated more than 20000...

I don't like the subdivision on FTDNA but here you go:
North Africa: 83%
Southern Europe: 9%
East Middle East: 3%
East Central Africa: 2%
West Africa : 2%

Not necessarily. Many ethnicities are not associated with a single paternal haplogroup. While E-M81 is the most dominating Amazigh haplogroup, indicating an old massive migration into the region from...

I'm T1a from Morocco. My maternal ancestors are from the Middle Atlas.

Salut, vărul meu!
Yes, it's just the paternal line. But over a whole population it gives you a good idea about its origins and migration path. This how we know for example that the Arabization of...

Hey guys! So my brother did the test on 23andme, and confirmed 100% that we are on the G-L91 line.



Hey Cousin!
Most of my father's cousins still live in Tafilalt as well. I would be...

It seems that it's common in Austria, Switzerland and Germany, and present in the UK and France. I think you'll learn more if you search for the parent subclade G-L497, which seemingly arose in...

Again, there are a few of us Moroccans (or North Africans in general) who could easily blend among Europeans. You will find individuals with very light skin, hair and eye color, especially among some...

E1b1b is quite prevalent in Morocco (more than 80%), but typical Moroccans are brown-skinned, with some individuals having darker or lighter skin. I don't think the skin tone or color has much or...

Hi guys! I have received my DNA test results a few months ago from AncestryDNA and, using a method detailed on Genetic Genealogist blog, managed to obtain my Y-DNA haplogroup from my raw DNA file...
