Wow, who's the imbecil that made that map by the way? How is it sure that F took place in central Iran? (Most studies place it's origins near northern/central Saudi Arabia and southern Iraq. How is it sure that the DE mutation took place outside of Africa in southern Iraq (Lol) and then E re-entered Africa (who said the E3a men ever left for sure?). Also, I seriously doubt IJ originated near the Iran/Afghanistan Central Asia region. I would give it a more conservative origin in the Middle East proper.

It is confirmed that the nimrod, isaaq etc. clans that entered the Somalia region descended from one "Shaykh Ishaq ibn Ahmad al-Hashimi from Arabia, a descendant of one of the Prophet Muhammad's early followers". The key word is Hashimi, and he was a Hashemite Arab from the Mecca region of Saudi Arabia. Anything linked to Quraysh or Hashemites I would link to hg T; Hashemite countries are Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iraq, Jordan etc.
