Honduras: haplogroups

FamilyTreeDNA has 50 kits with a Y-DNA result and 42 kits with mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA). On the paternal line the most common are R1b-P312 — 24%, E-M2 (E1b1a) — 24% and Q-M3 — 16%. For mt that is fewer than 50, so those shares below are a rough guide only.

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).

Migration paths of the characteristic branches #

Paths of the region's main characteristic branches, as modelled by FamilyTreeDNA Discover, on one calendar clock: in each year a branch stands where its ancestral line was. Grey is a stretch of path shared by several branches; the large marker is the branch itself.

The time scale is logarithmic: the closer to the present, the longer a year takes.

Honduras: Y-DNA #

Distinctive branches

Branches found here far more often than worldwide: their share is more than 3× the world share. The multiplier is in brackets. Branches of at least 10 kits are included.

  • E-M4895: 12 kits · 24.0% (95% confidence interval: 14–37%) (×21.3) 9,400 years
  • E-P2: 14 kits · 28.0% (95% confidence interval: 17–42%) (×3.9) 42k years
YFull

The same country on YFull #

The same country at the second company, YFull. Its samples are placed on the FTDNA tree by shared mutations, so the branches are comparable. FTDNA share on the left, YFull on the right, then the difference in percentage points. Republics and other sub-regions are taken out of the country, as at FTDNA. Starred branches are nearly empty at YFull: every test there is whole-genome and reaches the fine branches. Only YFull customers (YF number) are counted, no ancient DNA. YFull data of 2026-11-02.

Y-DNA

YFull has fewer than 30 samples from this country, too few to compare. 3 samples on YFull

mtDNA

YFull has fewer than 30 samples from this country, too few to compare. 8 samples on YFull

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.

New this month #

FTDNA: how much the kit count grew between the tree copies of 2026-10-09 and 2026-11-12. A kit that moved to a new sub-branch after refinement is not counted as new. YFull: samples YFull itself marks as new, in the copy of 2026-11-02; YFull drops the mark after a few weeks.

Native language reported by YFull customers from this country. People from regions with a page of their own (republics, autonomies) are shown there. These are the testers' own answers, not a census.

Ancient samples

From excavations on this territory: 2 samples by Y-DNA and 0 samples by mtDNA. The oldest: 484 CE, Maya civilization.
