What is your mtDNA Haplogroup

Is mtdna U connected to prehistoric hunter/gatherers in Europe?

I expected an H but more H1 or H3 and I end up with H7.

Only some mtdna U clades and subclades. There were other non-U mtdna too.

Well about 80% of lineages in Europe from the period that have been found in aDNA are U5 & U4 if i remember correctly.

Nobody ever talks about mtdna I. :cry

An 8 word answer. Not even a paragraph! :fhmm:

And no lengthy discussion either. I see now how important (or not) we are in the bigger scheme of things. :tsk:

Well to be honest I think it is simply because there has not been much research done on your haplogroup. Also not much has been found in any ancient remains yet.
