Hello everyone, I was just wondering which haplogroups could be the most common in Italy, because it seems really hard to answer.
North and central Italy, R1b predominates.
Southern Italy and Sicily, J2 predominates.

Thank you! Can you explain me what they mean?
It's easy, there are many papers.

Northern and central Italy have strong Italo-Celtic input.
Southern Italy has some affinities to the Levant and Near East.
There is also southern Balkan input (Illyrian/Albanian and Greek) in southern Italy which can be seen in the frequency of haplogroup E1b1b, and its subclades.

^ Yes.. as can be seen the Near Eastern impact is higher in the south, and the Italo-Celtic in the north.
Here are some other Italy maps about various Y-Dna haplogroups:

Seems to be that of the main haplogroups, according the 4 regional division of Italy (North, Central, South & Sardinia), would be this:
R1b: North
R1a: North
I1: North
I2: Sardinia
J1: Central
J2: Central
E1b1: South
R1B is still the most dominant haplogroup in Sicily (south Italy):

Some R1b-U152 subclades
Z56 (Italic)

Z36 (Gaulish)

I don't know who made these maps, if anyone know please tell me so I can properly put their name here

Seems to be that the most italic clade is the Z56, the most gaulish the L2 (is bigger than i thought) and the most germanic would be the Z36.
Also, another curious thing is how much U152 is in bashkirs.

Yes, no doubt Z56 is italic
I think both L2 and Z36 can be associated with gauls.
Why do you think Z36 is germanic? I think it correlates perfectly with the gaulish settlement in Northern Italy, maybe you've got this impression because there's a hotspot near the black forest?
Look at this passage, by Eupedia:
"This is probably the migration that brought the Italic-speaking tribes to Italy, who would have belonged mainly the Z56 clade of R1b-U152. During the Iron Age, the expansion of the La Tène culture from Switzerland is associated with the diffusion of the Z36 branch, which would generate the Belgae around modern Belgium and in the Rhineland, the Gauls in France, and the Cisalpine Celts in Italy."
I guess if Z36 were germanic it would be higher in Triveneto region rather than Piedmont and Lombardy :icon_ask:
I said germanic just to differentiate with the L2 that seems to be very gaulish like, almost all clades are in France, Central Europe, Belgium, etc.
But now i am realizing, a lot of germanic-like last names with L2:
Kevin Costner
Matthew Perry
Grover Cleveland
Abraham Lincoln
Even the Habsburgs are L2 too, curious, seems to be that this L2 is that large that has gaulish clades but also saxon and germanic.
