T2
T2 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA mt tree with 9,029 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Malta (22% of kits), Iraq (15% of kits), Russia (Republic of Chechnya) (14% of kits). The branch's common foremother lived about 14k years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 13k to 16k years ago. YFull has 4,455 samples in this branch and dates its common foremother to 12k 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 foremother lived.
6 small sub-branches more without a page: 98 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 201 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%.
T2: 4,455 samples. The common foremother lived 12k years ago (12k–13k); the branch split off 20k years ago (20k–20k).
