Definition of Haplogroup J1

[Goga]

That's an old article. The sample was not representative of the entire population of the country/region but it was a biased sample directed towards J1's in some populations. All J1's SNPs and subclades are 458.2, so it can be considered as a kind of general J1 SNP and usually 458.2 is recognized as a J1 marker.

Thanks for explaining this to me.

Y-DNA lineage = Race or Sub race ,

culture (mainly language or religion ) = identity like : Arabs , Kurds , Berber, Turks, Persian , Greeks , Jews etc they are all cultural identity Not Racial lineages .

" Their ancestors spoke deferent languages & belonged to deferent cultures (i.e. identities-ethnic group ) as a result of historical circumstances they left there previous identity's & assimilated and adopted the new one language and new cultural identity that’s how all the large ethnic groups in the world were crated"

for example : J1 lineage is a Sub race of J lineage wish is a Sub race of IJ etc.. and all the human-race are the descendent of Y-DNA Adam lineage .Race has nothing to do with Phenotype such as skin color , face etc…. Genetic components are responsible for Phenotypes wish is changeable as a result of admixture or mutation .


example of Some Arabians Phenotypes :

it should be noted that Modern day Kurdistan is part of the home of J1 before there was such thing as "Kurdistan" or "Kurds " or "Arabs" etc.............

Under the Phylogeny of J1 it reads in part "ZS223 comprises the Cohen Modal Haplotype. In the Hebrew Bible, the common ancestor of all Cohens is identified as Aaron, the brother of Moses. Roughly half of all Cohanim belong to J1-ZS223. The Cohanim haplotype (YCAII=22-22) of ZS223 matches the Z18271 deep clade."

Shouldn't that be ZS227 rather than ZS223?
