Ethiopia: summary

FamilyTreeDNA holds for Ethiopia: 74 kits with a Y-DNA result and 90 kits with mtDNA. On the paternal line the most common are E-PF2179* — 12%, E-CTS10298* — 11% and J-FGC7638* — 9%. On the maternal line the most common are L3f — 9%, L0a — 8% and L4b — 7%. YFull has 38 samples for Y from the same area, and its mix of major branches is noticeably different.

Detailed pages for each line are linked below the summaries.

Paternal line · Y-DNA

n=74 · 11 branches shown

Main branches of the Y tree. Each branch counts every kit in it and in its sub-branches; sub-branches are indented. Age is how many years ago the branch's common ancestor lived (TMRCA).

Y-DNA · on leaves

share of kits that reached the finest branch of the tree. The rest stopped at a broad branch: their test was not detailed enough.

Big Y

rough share of kits with a Big Y test, a full read of the Y chromosome. It is estimated from the branches where the region's kits sit, so it is an estimate, not a count.
