Bigalspal, I think an autosomal (nuclear) DNA test is will tell more about all of your ancestry.

Hi Glenlivet,
That's something I thought of as well.
I took the 2.5 test from AncestrybyDNA. It came back as 99% European & 1% Sub Saharan African. I was told the 1% SSA was probally statistical noise. So, it really didn't help. I'm going to upgrade to the Euro 1.0 test. It will break down the 99% European into subgroups. So maybe I can tell how recent the J2 really is.
Thanks,
Bigalspal

I was told that we could narrow it down to it not being J2e. Which, as you know, is Balkan ancestry. J2e is not strictly speaking exclusively Balkan ancestry, although it is common in the Balkans, and comprises the majority of J2s north of Greece in the Balkans. Recently, for example, J2e (which is now called J2b) of a very early date that is different from the Balkan one was found in Pakistan and India. You belong to the new J2a-M410. The next step is to be tested for either DYS413, defining J2a1, or the old J2f (which is now renamed to J2a1b). Of course even these will not add much more information. Even finer resolution is needed to make meaningful "ethnic" inferences. |
