Tip : You can now access this page by typing directly ydna.eu into your browser.
Human Y-chromosome DNA can be divided in genealogical groups sharing a common ancestor. These are called haplogroups. To know what ancient ethnic group is associated with each haplogroup, please check European Haplogroups : origins, geographic spread and relation to ethnic groups.
Note that figures are only indicative. Several sources were used and
averages recalculated by merging the data available. Being
approximations, numbers were rounded up to 0.5%. Frequencies inferior to
0.25% are indicated as 0%. A non-exhaustive list of the sources used
for this page can be found here.

Turkey is the only country that includes a sizeable percentage
of Asian and African haplogroups not listed in this table (A, ExE1b1b,
C, H, L, O, R2) representing 8.5% of the total. Haplogroup L alone makes
up 4% of the Turkish population.
The Greek regions are divided this way : North = Macedonia
& Thrace; Central = Thessaly, Epirus, Aetolia-Acarnania, Evrytania
& Phthiotis; South = Peloponnese, Attica & Athens.
The division of Italy
is as follows: North Italy is everything as far south as Liguria and
Emilia-Romagna. Central Italy comprises Marche, Umbria, Latium and
Abruzzo. South Italy is everything else to the south, except Sardinia
and Sicily, which have been made into separate categories due to their
specific history and relative geographic isolation.
Our division of Germany was made this way : North Germany
includes the Schleswig-Holstein, Lower Saxony (+ Hamburg and Bremen) and
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. West Germany is the Rhineland, Hesse and
Saarland. South Germany is Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria. East Germany
is composed of Brandenburg, Berlin, Saxony-Anhalt, Saxony and Thuringia.
