=====

In addition to what that article says, there are also some more news about Piast Dynasty Y-DNA haplogroup:

1) A solid majority of all Piasts belong to the same Y-DNA subclade, there are only a few exceptions and not too consistent (exceptions belong to various clades), they can be explained as either due to mixed bones from other individuals, or Non-Parental-Events within the dynasty.

2) Exact subclade has been established (very downstream) so it will be possible to check who is closely related to the Piasts.

3) There is no indication that the Piast Dynasty Y-DNA subclade is of Germanic origin (= Norse origins hypothesis is dead).

=====

That's all.

There is no info so far if R1b - previously detected in 2 Mazovian Piasts - has been confirmed for the majority of Piasts, or not.
