My FTDNA mtDNA haplogroup is here

[Yuffayur]

U3 peaks in Jordan, near the Dead sea, it's quite common in Levant (except Druze), Anatolia, Iran, Caucasus and Egypt, and it's not rare in any North African /west Eurasian (1 to 10%) country we are distant Cousins (I'm U6).

wainting for your Y-DNA, I think you might be a G, you look like G carrier.

Plot twist:
Mozabites have 10.59% U3 just after U6 (27.06%) and HV (22.35%)

Interesting that mtDNA U3 was also found in Bronze Age Thracian samples.usually common in Black Sea region

From Dienekes blog:

"We were able to tentatively call mtDNA haplogroups for these samples (Table S1). The two Bulgarian Iron Age individuals (P192-1 and T2G5) fell into haplogroups U3b and HV(16311), respectively. Haplogroup U3 is especially common in the countries surrounding the Black Sea, including Bulgaria, and in the Near East, and HV is also found at low frequencies in Europe and peaks in the Near East."

It looks like we are, lol. How common is U3 in places like Egypt?

0% to 11%

Do they tell you the y-dna when doing this? Or just the mtdna?

Each test is separately purchased, and i only did the Autosomal and mtDNA test. I'll do the Y-DNA one later.

Funny how you have a match in Ghana of all places.

Yeah, and strangely, he is a descendant of King Ludwig of Bavaria.
