Q is present below 1 % also within Finns, Estonians and Latvians (Lappalainen et al. 2008: Migration waves to the Baltic Sea region). So there is a continuum: from Baltia to Ukraine it's not so long journey, even though the latter may be due to the Turkic expansion: Q is also present within Turkish, Tatars and Altaians.

Q really could be a remnant of some ancient eastern (micro-)migration. It would be much harder to explain these matches outside Norway by the Eskimo influence. And equally hard it is to explain the Baltian and Fennoscandian matches by the Turkic influence...

Inuits have nothing to do with bringing this to Scandinavia. It's obvious Q is one of those haplogroups which made it to Scandinavia and northern Europe through normal migration. Q is also present in western Sweden at rates similar to Norway. It's even suggested and there is diuscussion that men carrying Q may have been an elite bringing with them Asiatic cultiral influences into Scandinavia.
Q is "mongoloid" according to anthroforum logic that's why some wish to see the presence of Q in Scandinavia as a result of slave trade and not a haplogroup among others in the old Norse genepool.

Who does know if the haplogroup Q is present in Denmark, maybe
o,1%?
