What are Haplogroups and does it matter?

  • Haplogroups don’t constitute a large part of the genome but they do tell us about a few of our ancient ancestors. Can r1a and r1b haplogroups tell us anything about the proto-indo-Europeans and the corded ware and yamnaya? This video also shows how Y-DNA haplogroups correspond with ancient patrilineal traditions.

    Haplogroup is only one line (either father to father or mother to mother). Therefore 6 out of your 8 grand parents will be not be represented in your haplogroups. So on an individual level haplogroups are limited. However, on a population level they are not. If 80% of men in population are R1b then that is significant.

It's really sad that our line is almost entirely extinct. We are pretty rare. Almost my entire genetic makeup is strictly European, but realizing what happened to my paternal line all those years ago makes me uneasy.

      Same. Once when I was a kid, my neighborhood friends and I were all going over our ethnicity, well everyone but myself. They all wanted to tell me I'm just English, but that struck me as being wrong for some reason. For the first time ever I deeply thought about my origins, and literally fjords and cold weather blew through my mind. I told them that I thought we might be something close to German, but they didn't really respond positively or at all to that. Many years later I found out that, after having a lifelong affinity for (but no notions of relation to) Norse culture, that our paternal line traces back 1000 years to a Norman knight who fought under William the Conqueror. Now, I haven't proved that he himself was the descendant of Norsemen instead of Carolingians or some other group belonging to Williams army, but we do get anywhere from 2-22% Scandinavian and will get a high match to Normandy families. I still feel like the originators of my family name were Norse, and have had nothing but confirmation through the facts i've uncovered about my family but all in all I do think that theres something deep within us that we have yet to fully understand that is locked within our male and female ancestral lines.
      On the same thought I always had an oddly strong affinity for the Middle East, and my maternal haplogroup ended up being HV which is very common among people from Iraq.

      joey dediashvili definitely agree with you on that. It's true we are all family. I just got really curious in my genetics because I'm mixed race and wanted to know more about both sides. It turns out my Ydna is r1a z93, with my dad having roots from Poland and east Germany. While my moms mtdna is j1 with roots in Israel and morroco. My autosomal DNA showed a lot of Arab west Asian North African and also small sub Saharan African on my moms side, and pretty much all European on my dads side, but 2% central Asian. I'm thinking it's maybe from having r1a z93 haplogroup which seems common in Central Asia but not Europe.

      I know this genetic research is super interesting, believe me, but you have to be careful with it. I'm an archaeology MA student currently and wanted to do my dissertation on similar themes, regarding evidence for female hypergamy (by looking at which haplo groups become predominant after cultural contacts and which men were being chosen) to discern the social dominance of a new group over another, specifically the success of the Neolithic farmers over the mesolithic hunter-gatherers in Britain.
      I've been told by multiple professors that my dissertation idea, while interesting, is not possible to do at this time due to this field still being deep in its infancy, and if i remember correctly, altogether from the holocene to the end of the prehistoric era, (10,000 years), there are 50-60 genetic samples in total (from europe). This means, while we can look at what modern populations have, to ascribe certain links to genetic populations is currently extremely tenuous, and the strictest of parsimony is required.
      We have the technology but the data currently is really lacking to be able to make firm conclusions.

    • @Survivethejive
      @Survivethejive  6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Both haplogroup and ancient autosomal DNA evidence are very useful for understanding European origins. In terms of the latter, although there may be a limited amount of ancient samples available, there are many modern samples and all the constituent parts of modern Europeans are now accounted for in ancient populations. When even older samples are found, we can find out about even older populations who founded the ones we currently know about, but for your professors to dismiss genetic archaeology in this way is hasty.

    • @sacredsoma
      @sacredsoma 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Correct me if I am wrong about this, but 50 -60 samples in total in Europe, as mentioned by eRoN means that all that is needed for these speculations about what the Yamnaya looked like or the western hunter gatherers etc. is just an additional 3 to 5 remains which would be different, the assumption that what has remained is representative doesn't seem sound.

As for R1b yes it is probably connected to the spread of indo European languages including the develoment of germanic in northen europe based on the population studies that have come out, but i won’t make any definitive statements and claims to we have more data on it.

It is responsible for the neolithic cultures from Cucuteni, Cri ș-Starcevo, Gumelnița, Boian etc. I think I may share this haplogroup along with the indo-european r1b, brought here by the thracians ( but also later by the slavs ).

      So then your entire argument hinges off the fact that you' personally are unfamiliar with Africa, which is why you think they're all the same. Of course you're more familiar with Europe than Africa as someone who probably grew up in the west and was constantly exposed to western culture, but that's just your perception. Even many Americans can't distinguish between Scottish and Irish culture lol.

    As a woman, I don’t know my paternal haplogroup and my father passed away so unless I can convince my uncle to do genetic testing, I’ll likely never know. But interestingly, my maternal haplogroup is a bit uncommon and the second most common place it’s found is also where I know my maternal grandmother’s heritage comes from. And looking into her maiden name, I found many others who immigrated to the US from the same town in Scotland within 30 years of one of my own ancestors. All that said, it’s just cool to confirm historical information with this genetic information and tells me my maternal ancestry must have a long history in at least the British isles.

    • @TotalFreedomTTT-pk9st

      Hopefully without refuting the purpose of the video - Scotland is basically composed of R1b (70%) and I1 and R1a (30%) and essentially you are mostly that - good chance your Dad was one of those 3 (most likely R1b) and yes - women of different Haplogroups mated in with R1b and I1 and R1a but how much ? You 'look' Scottish ... or Welsh or English or Irish or ....but could be Danish or Estonian etc Seems to me that all of us should carry some type of identifier from the very beginning - like why does 'nature' throw out the male haplogroup when you (chemically) became a girl vs boy - or me (as a guy) would not 'carry' the mitochondrial DNA even though I became a guy - so the sperm hits the egg and where does all that information go ? and what determines guy or girl ? if once determined does the 'body' just delete the male or female info ? My point is maybe you actually have the 'male haplogroup' still stored in a genetic file from your Dad's sperm

Yes, a lot of warfare, violence and some depopulation did happen, but modern Turks are overwhelmingly (at least 80%) descendants of the same individuals who already lived in Anatolia before the Turks established their sultanates there.

    His father was Anchises, cousin of Troy's king Priam, and his mother was Aphrodite, Venus for the Romans.
    The epic poem was written to sustain the divine descent of Augustus, a way to legitimize his power and glorify his predestination to be emperor.

In other words looking like a caucasian or white person, of course the North African would mostly look like a North African.

There is also much evidence for I and its subclades being present in mesolithic Europe pre-agriculture. Meanwhile, most samples that I am aware of in the Near East at the time belonged to E1b. The sister clade J seems present in the Caucasus region around that time though. Perhaps a pre-farming movement of people from the Balkans or northern Caucasus deeper into Europe during this time?

    Hi. I'm thinking that mitochondria, driving every cell of the body, has a much more significant effect on the individual than you describe...

    Haplogroups can give us some clues to likely admixture especially when used with additional informations.

      a clue, but a potentially misleading one.

    Very interesting. I agree with your point about haplogroups most importantly telling us about ancient migration patterns. I see it that a new group is created with isolation from another group through migration, i.e. embarking on a new path. This would predominantly have to do with following a new food source which could arise from climate change, the invention of a new technology etc. This is probably simplistic but as you said the R group spread with the mammoth hunters. Did the N haplogroup spread with the reindeer hunters, R1b with the goat herders, C with the coastal raft people, the I group with the cro magnon hunters, and E with the neolithic farmers?

    I just loved this video!! I am very interested in genetics, specially through a historical point of view. Even though I have read about it, I mistakenly thought that haplogroups traced from the mitocondrial DNA, in other words, from one’s mother’s side. Thank you from clearing that! Please make more videos on genetics.

    A haplogroup tells only something about a single ancestry line, either the patrilineal (Y-DNA) or matrilineal (mtDNA) one, but not about all the other ancestry lines and our overall genetic makeup.
    For example, we have four grandparents, that is, four different families from which we inherit our traits in equal parts. However, the haplogroups can tell only something about two of these four lines of ancestry (the father-side grandfather and the mother-side grandmother).
    If we go back 10 generations (250 years), then we have 2^10=1024 ancestors, that is, 1024 distinct lines of ancestry. Again, the haplogroups tell only something about two out of all these 1024 lines of ancestry that contribute to our genetic makeup.
    The matrilineal and patrilineal lines are basically arbitrary among all the ancestry lines. They have biologically not more significance in defining who we are than the thousands of other ancestry lines that we have. Unless you attribute, for whatever reasons, a special importance to the purely patrilineal or matrilineal lines, as explained in the video, but this is completely arbitrary and ideological.
    In contrast to haplogroups, an autosomal DNA (atDNA) test takes into account all ancestry lines, and thus gives a picture of our overall genetic setup. This can be used, for example, to estimate where certain percentages of our ancestors came from.
    But all this has been explained well in the video, especially that haplogroups don't tell much about our overall genetic makeup (but can be used for other purposes).

    Weird but interesting note, we kind of look alike. I have quite a bit of English DNA as well as German, with a bit of Norwegian. I remember watching a video where doppelgangers tested their dna and found that they really didn't share that much, so I guess it's not all that significant. Still, I always find it quite interesting when I see someone whom I can somewhat see myself in. Sort of eerie, as if your watching an alternate you.

    I was hoping I would have got some information on my haplogroups and rh+/- with my DNA test at Ancestry. Sadly that's not how it works, I would need to buy additional tests. I've found other platforms that can list haplogroups but not the rh factor. In any case Ancestry let's you download a file on your DNA sample, do you know if this information could be found out from that or are new tests the only option?

    I found out recently that the Sovayard region of France has a lot of Germanic Y DNA Haplogroups possible because of the Burgundians settling in that region. Is that because they are only Germanic or is it because the Burgundians most likely mixed in with the native Gallo Roman women?

    Interesting presentation. My mitochondrial haplogroup is X2 which is connected to some strange migrations like the Great Lakes area and were at some point believed to be European a few thousand years ago. I’ll need to get my dad or brothers to do a DNA test to get my Y haplogroup.
