where is haplogroup T from?

[Tim O'Brien]

I am of Irish decent, but my Y haplogroup is T, so where is this haplogroup from?

No one knows for sure, but probably came from near east in ancient times. It's very spread out. Pretty good amounts in italy and andalusia and north africa - might be related to hashimites (muhammed was a hashimite).

I am T, you will find T to have probably originated in Mesopotamia but spread across the world. You can find it in the Caucasus, Crimea, Iberia, Iraq, Iran, and India. It's very high among the Chenchus for example, high among Ossetians, and high among the Bakhtaris of Iran. It's origin was Mesopotamian it's also quite common in Assyrians. You have to find your sub-clad as well to understand where your T comes from. Btw Thomas Jefferson was T as well so it's found in the British Isles but quite rare, some say it was brought by Phoenicians interesting lineage that is.

This is an interesting question! I recently found an ethnic Russian with T1a2b. He is Baltic as shit, likely a Northwestern Russian.
Apparently T can be found in Europe and Northern countries too, albeit in small quantities.
