H1a
H1a is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA mt tree with 2,708 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: France (Alsace) (6.3% of kits), Estonia (5.7% of kits), Finland (5.6% of kits). The branch's common foremother lived about 5,800 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 5,100 to 6,500 years ago. YFull has 1,008 samples in this branch and dates its common foremother to 4,900 years ago.

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 foremother lived.
1 small sub-branch more without a page: 12 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 660 kits.
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%.
H1a: 1,008 samples. The common foremother lived 4,900 years ago (4,800–5,000); the branch split off 8,900 years ago (8,700–9,100).
