Very interesting. The DF27 and U152 are definitely from Iberians probably settling in North Africa not too sure when. Maybe reconquista!

This is very interesting actually, 2 R-L21, even more than R-DF27 and R-U152. Were there any brittish explorations to North Africa?
It's interesting some tribes that consider themselves arab are indeed FGC-11 under J1 which is a true Gulf clade iirc. Good to see that some people managed to remain unmixed over the years.
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.
