J-L862
Equivalent branches, the same kits: J-Z1853 (12,740 kits, 6,900 years)
J-L862 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 12,740 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Saudi Arabia (45% of kits), Jordan (42% of kits), Sudan (39% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 6,100 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 5,400 to 7,000 years ago. The oldest of the equivalent branches, J-Z1853, split off about 6,900 years ago by Discover. YFull has 8,416 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 6,300 years ago.

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.
2 small sub-branches more without a page: 46 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 136 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 203 distinct among 654 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-Z1853: 8,416 samples. The common ancestor lived 6,300 years ago (5,700–6,900); the branch split off 7,200 years ago (6,200–8,300).
