For those who're interested in Y-DNA distribution of North Africa, here is a map in which you can see Y-DNA distribution of North Africans, the samples were taken from several DNA projects.

Any impact from the people of Germany and Iberia that had historic moviments to Morroco and Algeria?

Maybe a little bit, we found R1B in several tribes. Also 1 morisco who carries R-U152 (he hasn't tested further but he's going to test for his terminal haplogroup).

Interesting. U152 is found in iberians but to a lesser grade compared to the DF27.

We also found R-L21 in a Riffian tribe, R-L21 is dominated on yfull by anglos/Irish.

So that's why there are some red hair cases... L21 descendants carry at least 1 red hair marker.
Are they ancient samples or modern? L21 is not common in Iberia.

Modern samples. ALL of them are modern samples from people who are active in North African DNA communities.

2 whit I, I2 (Beni Mezouar) near Tanger and I L22 (Bni Itfet tribe) near Al-Hoceima.
Most of R in 3 zones, in NorthWest Morocco, Another around Algiers, and another in North East Tunisia. After those 2 samples near Fes (one of them R Z93) 2 samples in North Algeria separated and one "outlier" in the middle of nowhere in Lybia.
What indicates the difference in colours among J´s and E´s? There is not colour difference between R1A and R1b...
This found is fantastic, thanks.

It is not weird when taking history into consideration, Phoenicians, Romans and so go on they all had free-pass between North Africa and Iberia.

Probably remnants of Roman, Iberian and Anglo incursions in North Africa.

06-30-2020, 09:48 PM
It could also be viking raids, which still had a high proportion of R's. There are more R1b in Norway and Iceland than I1, about the same in Denmark as well for example. No need to go back to Bronze Age, or simply just even more recent colonies remnants..

Also about the red hair, it is not necessarily from these haplogroups that red hair made its intro. Iberomaurusians also carried SNPs responsible for red hair:

Is relative common in North Iberia, but U152 not does not exceed 5% in the peninsula.
Surely the region with the most U152 is Catalonia and that would confirm that the French could have brought it there, I mean because Catalonia was part of the Carolingian Empire and more events with the French.
Who knows. We're here to know and learn.
I don't know exactly how much U152 is in Iberia, but it is old as DF27 in iberian soilds, so we know where does it come from (at least most of them). An user in anthrogenica told me is more common than L21 but still not near like DF27.
Very interesting. The DF27 and U152 are definitely from Iberians probably settling in North Africa not too sure when. Maybe reconquista!

Most logical scenario is that these R carriers were refugees (moriscos) whom settled in North Morocco, most moriscos were R1B carriers.

Maybe just that user told you a theory, because in some websites i saw that U152 doesn't exceet 5%.
Probably most of these haplogroup it's older, around Bell Beaker, Hallstatt & La Tène cultures. But a minority sure they can comes about Iberian conquests or some acconteciment similar. Like conquest of Spain by France in Napoleonic Wars.
Or Spanish Empire conquest Benelux. Remember en Belgium or North France have DF27. It can happened the same but in reverse. I mean.. someone with U152 comes here.
I also viewed that some Germans came for a kind of repopulation in villages, a German man that comes to Iberia can perfectly had U152 haplogroup.
Just are theories, any confirmation, but You know, We want to know more about it. Not only about U152, even all haplogroups here in Iberia.
That user had a big database and was the one to analize my raw data xD not exactly a theory. The rest is speculative for all sides.

This is very interesting actually, 2 R-L21, even more than R-DF27 and R-U152. Were there any brittish explorations to North Africa?
Rocinante

He's told you your subclade? :O
He was the one that analized my raw data, yes, and i learned to do so with him.
U152 is from Central Celtic people from Hallstatt and La Tène culture.
It's like saying that haplogroup U106 is Iberian, when It's Germanic.
The Iberian's haplogroup is DF27 and their subclades.
Celtiberian haplogroup probably..
Yeah I guess. But you also see sizable DF27 in Britain and central as well just way more in Iberia. Probably from iberians moving to those populations?

Arab tribes have managed to kept their tradition, culture and heritage alive in North Africa, also their arrival is very detailed documented by various historians. Most of them mixed with local population though, so autosomalic-wise most of them are between 30% and 10% Peninsular Arab admixed (23andMe).

It's very difficult to associate an haplogroup with a specific ancient people. In the case of U152, it's modern distribution doesn't correlate that well with La Tene:

Its presence in Iberia and given that it peaks in north-central Italy could very well be associated with Roman movements.

Different colours in J samples could be a way to differentiate J subclades who could come from Jewish people and other populations from Levant ?
And same for E different colours, to differentiate more native North Africans subclades and those that could come from SSA?
I ask it only, I don´t know a lot about Haplotypes.

Seems to be that U152 arrived alongside the DF27 with the Bell Beakers, but spreaded in a different way, more trending to the East.

Yeah, in North France or Belgium exist DF27 too cause the Spanish Empire.
So I think that not all haplogroups have to be old, it may also be that you have had them recently.
If there is DF27 in Northern France and Belgium, who doesn't tell you that some U106 or U152 has come to the peninsula because of the Spanish Empire or perhaps also the First French Empire due to the Napoleonic Wars?
For that I think it is better to be more open about it.
It really is fucking complicated to think that from the Bronze Age to the present day a man from that time has always had male children and those children also more male children and so, obviously it is not impossible, however most likely that at one point that be cut. IMHO.

There are several maps, and in all of them it peaks in Italy. But it's all speculation. What i think it's certain is that the peoples that came to Iberia in the Iron Age (all of them) weren't all one haplogroup so it's very difficult to guess which people carried which haplogroup (to Iberia, in this case).
It's also possible that the Iron Age didn't change haplogroups that much in Iberia and the R1b haplogroups being discussed were already here. Sampling is very few so far.

Un francés va a ser un francés, pero si tiene un haplogrupo que mayormente tienen los Ibéricos (no precisamente tiene que ser el mismo subclade) pues eso es por alguna razón, no tenemos una máquina del tiempo para averiguar los acontecimientos. También vete a saber todo lo que la Historia nos ha ocultado.

Dark blue: Indigenous E-M183 subclade
Light blue: Indigenous E-PF2431 subclade
Red color: (foreign) R1b/R1a with their subclades (i will edit this to distinguish r1b from r1a in color)

Actually you might be right, but we have to play with the cards we have right now, and make numbers, % and conclusion with it.
U152 peaks in North Italy (actually every north italian in this forum is U152, including the nordicist savvas), meaning that the movements ¨started¨ there, but i don´t really think it is only a roman haplo, i think it is more italic and gaul, it is my humble opinion, because romans were J2 like most of central italians. Makes sense actually that catalans have the peak in U152 because they have strong affinities with southern frenchs.

Seems to be that is unique for West Iberians (Galicians, Portugueses, Castillians and Asturleoneses). The basque clade would be M153 and the one in East Iberia would be M167.
Z225/Z229 is the best of all.

No of course not, Kutema is an old tribe which was allied to the Fatimid Empire, they became shia and went from Morocco to North Algeria to Egypt. Ottoman Empire had no foothold in Morocco and there has never been a mass migration of Algerians into Morocco (except for Hilali Arabs but they are not considered Algerians and they are majority J1). Atlas Mountain is very isolated and majority there are E-M183.

E-M183 is majority North African and dominated by Berber groups, where is this person from that you mentioned? Some non-N Africans indeed carry this haplogroup but they are a minority.

He is Russian. Possibly distant Jewish, though I'm not sure and it should be 1/8 or less if anything.
