Y chromosome (paternal line)

Haplogroup E-M84

E›E-M215 / E-M35›E-M123 / E-M34›E-M84

The main sub-branch of E-M34 (YFull: E-M84). Frequent in Ethiopia and Eritrea, the Levant, Arabia and Anatolia; one of the characteristic lineages of Jewish communities from all three main diasporas; sporadic in Southern Europe.

How gnomancer finds it

The Y haplogroup is called from the Y-chromosome sites on your chip by yhaplo (ISOGG tree) with a second opinion from Yleaf on the current YFull, FamilyTreeDNA and ISOGG trees. Arrays type a few thousand Y sites, so the call stops at roughly this depth; Y sequencing (e.g. Big Y-700) is needed for a terminal subclade.
