This is the geographical locations of the YFull kits of the interesting branch Q-L804 with closest relatives among the American indians. Non YFull kits gets a highly transparent dot in the predicted branch colour that can show the dencity of Q-L804.
Some how the Q-L804 branch seems to have made it to northern Europe at some point, likely through Siberia. The common origin with native americans is likely in Siberia or Beringia. Papers that shed some light on this migration includes:
Lamnidis, T.C., Majander, K., Jeong, C. et al. Ancient Fennoscandian genomes reveal origin and spread of Siberian ancestry in Europe. Nat Commun. 2018, 9
Clio Der Sarkissian, et al., Mitochondrial Genome Sequencing in Mesolithic North East Europe Unearths a New Sub-Clade within the Broadly Distributed Human Haplogroup C1. PLoS One. 2014, 9(2). This paper discuss the finding of three individuals of the 7500-year-old Mesolithic site of Yuzhnyy Oleni Ostrov that were C1. The connection between northern Europe and the population that colonized America can thus be very old.
The Genographic Project (Geno) kits with Q-L804
Geno stoped collecting samples in August 2019 but have captured some Q-L804. They are listed below but not yet included in the maps. Most are in our traditional areas but one kit is from Slovakia (American tester) and we got two new northern kits in Hammerfest in northern Norway.
