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%.

U5a2a1: 272 samples. The common foremother lived 4,300 years ago (4,100–4,600); the branch split off 6,800 years ago (4,500–9,900).
