FTDNA Y-tree branch

T-L208

T-L208 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 2,004 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. Almost all of its kits sit in a single sub-branch, T-CTS931, so this branch gets no conclusions of its own. It is most common in these samples: United Arab Emirates (18% of kits), Somalia (15% of kits), Bahrain (10% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 9,200 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 8,000 to 11k years ago. YFull has 846 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 8,300 years ago.

YFull

Most common among these peoples #

From YFull samples that gave a mother tongue: the part of a people's samples that falls into this branch. Peoples with at least 3 samples in the branch are listed.

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.

On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 52 kits.

Surnames #

Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 46 distinct among 114 kits. FTDNA gives surnames per branch only, with no country attached, so they cannot be split by country.

YFull

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%.

T-L208: 846 samples. The common ancestor lived 8,300 years ago (7,500–9,100); the branch split off 12k years ago (11k–14k).
