Libya: summary
FamilyTreeDNA holds for Libya: 493 kits with a Y-DNA result and 28 kits with mtDNA. On the paternal line the most common are J-FGC1* — 24%, E-PF2546 — 17% and J-FGC5* — 8%. For mt that is fewer than 50, so those shares below are a rough guide only. YFull has 164 samples for Y from the same area, and its mix of major branches is almost the same. The largest gap is E-PF2546: 17% on FTDNA against 34% on YFull.
