J-L24 J2a-L24
J-L24 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 3,276 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. Almost all of its kits sit in a single sub-branch, J-L25, so this branch gets no conclusions of its own. It is most common in these samples: Tunisia (11% of kits), Iraq (Kurdistan) (9.6% of kits), Azerbaijan (8.5% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 14k years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 12k to 16k years ago. YFull has 1,194 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 14k years ago.
Where it is found #

Sub-branches #
Sub-branches that have their own page (50 kits or more). The bar is the kits in the sub-branch with its own sub-branches; the age is when its common ancestor lived.
1 small sub-branch more without a page: 16 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 46 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 112 distinct among 357 kits. FTDNA gives surnames per branch only, with no country attached, so they cannot be split by country.

The same branch on YFull #
YFull builds its tree from the same SNPs; the node is matched by name or by a shared SNP. TMRCA is when the common ancestor of all samples lived, formed is when the branch split from its parent. Intervals are 95%.
J-L24: 1,194 samples. The common ancestor lived 14k years ago (13k–16k); the branch split off 16k years ago (15k–17k).
