Very interesting discussion around VK202! Speaking of Lara Cassidy, she is featured in this Irish documentary which may be of interest to anyone who hasn't seen it. :) [

Thanks for this Neil (again). I would also really like to confirm the status of CT14 with Lara Cassidy. In her thesis he was typed as R1b1a1a2a1a2c1a3a2(a1d*). The asterisk I think indicates some

Neil, I met Lara a couple of years ago at Genetic Genealogy Ireland a couple of years ago - she was very approachable. And I ticktacked with her thereafter by email, initially to find out when her

Many thanks for this Neil. No, you have not misrepresented my speculations ?! This is a seriously complex period of history and our ability to tease apart the various strands of this complexity is

Well, it was nice try, no cigar. I'll certainly note the subtlety between 'no coverage and 'not positive for' for future reference. FTDNA agree with your analysis. They report no match at all to any

For what it’s worth VK202 is actually pretty good for an ancient sample. Here’s the tail of the Y-Report: He doesn’t share any downstream mutations with the 11 A151 men I have BAMs for. James

Thanks James for the screenshot - OK, fully understood – it is ancient DNA after all, though some samples such as VK25 have produced more stellar results – others remain high upstream. Logically,

No coverage means exactly that with NGS tests. There are no reads with which you can make a call. While I have the sample, it’s not currently available to review for some time. The BAMs are on the

Neil, John met Lara at GGI in Dublin and has been in correspondence in the past. I will let him explain further. E Sent: 08 September 2021 12:03 To: [email protected] Subject: Re:

Neil, whoever it was who responded to you said ‘(A151 has no coverage)’. That is not the same as being negative for the mutation. No coverage means that the primers used to ‘read’ the bases at

Further to below, if FTDNA are correct, and VK202 is not a match for A151, this means that the A151 snip block has split and the tree potentially looks like this:- [cid:image006.png@...]

Did the project try approaching Lara Cassidy directly? The embargo period is the choice of the thesis author. In our collections policy that can embargo up to 5 years, after which time the thesis is

Elizabeth, I had no luck finding an ENA number for the late Iron Age Claristown inhumation CT14 included in Lara Cassidy's thesis. It may have been embargoed like her thesis ?. I don't recall

Elizabeth, You asked whether Stout indicated if the whole island was affected? What he says is '*pollen analysis tells not only about vegetation but also about the progress of agriculture and

The only knowledge for me until now of ‘pukka’ was a line of herbal teas… Nigel, I agree with your sentiments as well. Sharon is currently working towards an article about the Seven Septs in

Cheers for all that wrote:

As a co-founder of this R1b-CTS4466 Plus Project (with Finbar O Mahony and Elizabeth), it is heartening to see such thorough scholarship of some its members (ref. the message below), but let’s

More and more Ogham stones have been documented since the 1940s, and more continue to be discovered. It is thought that there are about 400 in Britain and Ireland, the majority (330) are found in

From data on ancient bones (haplotree.info - ancientdna.info) I suggest the age of DF13 is looking like somewhere near 2400 B.C., and from mutation rate considerations for SNPs PLUS STR mutations, the

Unfortunately it looks like the embargo has increased ( http://www.tara.tcd.ie/handle/2262/82960 ) and it will now not be released until early May 2023. It would be amazing if she would share the raw
