Samples on a time scale #

A dot is a sample, a line is the range it is dated to, the colour is its culture within the group. A hollow dot: its placement on the tree is uncertain.

Y-DNA

Branches · Y-DNA #

Tree of the ancient samples' branches. Each branch counts every sample in it and in its sub-branches; sub-branches are indented. With so few samples every labelled branch is shown, single samples included; pass-through branches with no side branches are skipped. Age is how many years ago the branch's common ancestor lived (TMRCA), from FTDNA.

Each colour is one of the eight most common macro-haplogroups worldwide (the first letter of the haplogroup, such as R or J). Everything else is grey.RIJENGQTother

Tree of the ancient samples' mt branches, grouped by letter. Each branch counts every sample in it and in its sub-branches; sub-branches are indented. With so few samples every labelled branch is shown, single samples included; pass-through branches with no side branches are skipped. Age is how many years ago the branch's common foremother lived (TMRCA), from FTDNA.
