Cheddar Man from a Y-dna perspective

 


Hi all,
Great that we have a new list!
To fuel the fire and start some activity I post a link to my recent citizen science paper "Cheddar Man from a Y-dna perspective".
It think it will interest all those focussing on I2: https://www.academia.edu/people/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=cheddar+man
Comments are welcome :-)
Hans


Re: Cheddar Man from a Y-dna perspective

 

I am testing a link shortener to see if the link will be active, eliminating the need to copy and paste.



There is also a direct link to the paper.

Haplogroup I1 Ancient Samples Map

 

Since we have a first post on the list from Hans, then we can say the list is active. Thanks Hans!

Not sure if any of the material will migrate from Rootsweb, and in case it doesn't, I'll share the link to my map of ancient samples that have been designated Haplogroup I1. Also including some samples that are pre-I1/I* (on the map with black skull and crossbones) - they have derived SNPs on the I1 branch that are phyloequivalent with M253 (312 SNPs on the current YFull tree) but also have ancestral SNPs on that level, as well as including cases where the analysis isn't comprehensive enough to give a clear answer either way (brown with question mark). Divided the rest of the I1 samples into I-Z2336 and downstream (red), I-Z58 and downstream (green), I-Z63 and downstream (yellow) and blue for everything else (I-DF29 that don't fit into I-Z2336, I-Z58, I-Z63; as well as I1 subclades that are negative for DF29).?

The map can be found here?

Click on pins on the map to bring up a side window with more information - eg. archaeological context, dating (radiocarbon if available), SNP calls from BAM file, link to the relevant paper where the sample is described. Or click on the sample name on the left hand list. Map currently has 131 ancient samples and will be updated as new results come in.?


Z382-project at FTDNA

 

Over at the z382-project on FTDNA we are doing alot of work trying to map out?I-M253 > DF29 > Z58 > Z59 > Z2041 > Z2040 > Z382?including some custom made applications. Sometimes we expand our perspective to include clades upstream of ”ours”, in attempt to get a better picture, and here is an example of what the output can look like:

You are very welcome. Everyone, invite your friends. It is nice being on a reliable system. Let's hope it lasts for a long, long time. I will look into copying the archives from the RootsWeb list.

Historic Migration Patterns Are Written in Americans’ DNA

Historic Migration Patterns Are Written in Americans’ DNA

“Studies of DNA from ancient human fossils have helped scientists to trace human migration routes around the world thousands of years ago. But can modern DNA tell us anything about more recent movements, especially in an ancestrally diverse melting pot like the United States?”



“Understanding the genetic structure of the US is important because it helps illuminate distinctions between populations that studies might not otherwise account for. If we want genetic technologies to benefit everyone, we need to rethink our current approach for genetic studies because at the moment, they typically miss a huge swath of American diversity.”

“Some findings caught the researchers by surprise. For instance, their analysis revealed a striking diversity in the geographic origins of participants who identified as Hispanic or Latino. The genetic patterns of these participants indicated a complex mixture of European, African, and Native American ancestries that varied widely depending on where participants lived, whether they were in California, Texas or Florida, for example.”



New member from old list

 

Hello all,
Just looked at my back-log of gmail messages and saw that the new list was created here so joined up.

Hope you are all well and staying safe from the COVID-19 Pandemic in your area/country.

Y-DNA Haplogroup I-M223 (sub-clade I-Y4722)


Re: Haplogroup I1 Ancient Samples Map

 

Thanks for this reference, Simon. I found two samples that match, at least to a degree, my own Y-haplogroup. Sample VK297 in Denmark is I1-Y4051, which is also my terminal SNP at present, and sample VK549 in Estonia is I1-P109, which is the SNP I was "stuck at" for so long, until I took the Big-Y test. There is also one sample which matches my mt-haplogroup.

I-Z58

 

Just learned that one of my cousins is?I-Z58+. This is from the 23andMe database. I, unfortunately, tested years ago, long before this subclade was discovered. Anyone know of any resources for this group?

Hi Aaron,

?? By the way, I'm in Harris Group 4 and I tested positive for Z63 but negative for Z58.? Downstream SNP results:

M21-, ?M227-, ??M253+, P109-, P259-, P30+, L22-, L338-, Z63+, Z131-, Z58-, L840+, DF29+, L1243-, L1237+, CTS7416-, L1439+

A close match in the Family Tree DNA database is?I-A5734+.


Ken Nordtvedt

 

I have looked for archived copies of Ken's site, which is now offline, but without much success. Anyone know of people who have saved material from his old site? I am particularly interested in this document,?.

I found a page on Google Docs (?) Groups (?), headed by Bernie Cullen and Zdenko Markovic, but most Nordtvedt links failed, and even worse, I failed to bookmark it. They work in mainly I2 and most of my work is in I1, but I wish I had saved the link to provide here. ?Instead, I saved some files locally, but they were quite old and do not seem to pertain to your question. If I stumble on it again, I will post here.

I don't have a file with that specific name, but found these two from a group thread. One by Ken and the other from Julie Frame Falk.

Re: I-Z58

Hi Keith, Aaron,

My father’s FTDNA results are Z63 [but not Z58], with the terminal at I-BY40648.

His results are unusual, lacking in non-surname matches (a known cousin is 35/37 match). There are zero matches to his terminal SNP.

I don’t have a good understanding of the haplogroup trees, but I had hoped through to identify a geographic region of origin for my male line. After looking at the results, it’s my understanding that the identification of regions associated with a haplogroup are based on the information provided by people who have tested. If that’s true, I would expect to find errors (due to incorrect family documentation) and large gaps (due to lack of participants) in the knowledge base. France, for instance is seriously under-represented in genetic test results.

Can anyone suggest the implications of zero matches at the terminal SNP?

I would also appreciate an insight in understanding how people from the UK would be downstream of a Native American. It flows like this, downstream of I-Z63:?
I-Y6375 Amerindian ancestry >?I-Y13945?UK ancestry >?I-BY40648 (my father)

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or suggestions!

Best,
Eileen

Re: I-Z58

A rather simple explanation for the I-Y6375 amerindian part is that one person hasn’t the heritage he thinks, Somewhere in his line is an European ancestor. That is always the case when using user submitted information. The best with this is that the user now see that this is probably not right ?
