where is haplogroup T from?

[Tim O'Brien]

I am of Irish decent, but my Y haplogroup is T, so where is this haplogroup from?:confused:

No one knows for sure, but probably came from near east in ancient times. It's very spread out. Pretty good amounts in italy and andalusia and north africa - might be related to hashimites (muhammed was a hashimite).

I am T, you will find T to have probably originated in Mesopotamia but spread across the world. You can find it in the Caucasus, Crimea, Iberia, Iraq, Iran, and India. It's very high among the Chenchus for example, high among Ossetians, and high among the Bakhtaris of Iran. It's origin was Mesopotamian it's also quite common in Assyrians. You have to find your sub-clad as well to understand where your T comes from. Btw Thomas Jefferson was T as well so it's found in the British Isles but quite rare, some say it was brought by Phoenicians interesting lineage that is.

This is an interesting question! I recently found an ethnic Russian with T1a2b. He is Baltic as shit, likely a Northwestern Russian.
Apparently T can be found in Europe and Northern countries too, albeit in small quantities.

I am also a T of 100% European ancestry (FTDNA says 43% England, Wales, Scotland; 33% Central Europe, 16% Irish, 7% Scandinavian, and 2% West Slavic). I'm having the FTDNA Y37 done right now to narrow it down further (for genealogical purposes). I would guess that it would lead to British Isles (Y8699 or Y14426)

An American from Virginia, 99.5% Northwestern European, with T-CTS2214 (https://www.yfull.com/tree/T-CTS2214/)

My paternal side is from Northeast Germany (Brandenburg/Mecklenburg) and I have T-L446. In autosomal DNA tests (23andme, AncestryDNA) I get 25% Slavic/Eastern European from his side and our last name is a Germanized-Slavic name that comes from Polabian Slavic. I wonder if maybe there was a Slavic ancestor who brought Haplogroup T to the region? The only mention I've ever been able to find of T-L446 being in Germany is from Wikipedia where they say 0.8% of test respondents in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern have it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_T-M184#:~:text=T1a2b%2DL446(xCTS11984)%20DYS437%3D15

We must be of similar stock. Is T-CTS2214 where you stopped or just as far as you have tested?
