"About 15% of the Balkars belong to the haplogroup R1b, subclade Y20750 (mainly Chegem ethnic group of Balkars).
These are such clans as the Aqbolat, Akkay, Bittir, Barasbiy, Gaza (Chegem), Janatay, Jañuraz, Janika, Jurtubay, Bittu, Malqaruq, Makka, Gelâstan, Tram, Tappashan, Etez, Makit, Mızı, Muraça, Sotta (Chegem) etc.
The age of this branch (Y91288) is about 1450 years. Of the other peoples in this group are Karachays (Hubiy, Qağıy), Ossetian (Nigkoy), Georgian (Longurashvili), Astrakhan Nogay (Kasay), Kumyk Botaş from Botaş-Aul village. But for them all we can consume the Balkar origin, due to geographical proximity with the Balkars.
Now, a distant relative has appeared outside the Caucasus - a German (Boschert). The Boschert Clan is from Westphalia. Between Boschert and the Balkars is about 1500-1700 years, which is pretty close in terms of DNA distance. For example, other people from Y20750 subclade (Tatars, Teleuts, etc.) stand from the Balkars at a distance of 5700 years.
Today the German Boschert clan is the first close and only relative of the Balkar branch. With some caution, we can assume its Hun origin."( also copied from others).
