What is y-dna E-L677, does it have other names, and where is it common?

It's one of the Snps of E-V22

Probably East Med of some sort

I belong to this haplogroup too, trying to find out more about it. Seems like its found mostly in Southern Euro countries and MENA (especially egypt).

I’ve been able to trace my paternal line to my 6th great-grandfather, Johann Herman Rudolph, born circa 1753 in Hesse-Kassel, Germany (Holy Roman Empire). He was Lutheran, and my autosomal DNA shows 0% Jewish, Middle Eastern or North African. My understanding is that E was a late arrival to Europe, when compared to R, which is the predominate haplogroup in Western Europe, and which is associated with the Proto Indo-Europeans, while E is predominate in ME/NA and has strong connections to Afro-Asiatic/semitic populations. Is this everyone else’s understanding as well?

You got it the other way around. First E entered Europe around 9000 YBP, way before the R (R1a,R1b) populated Europe.

E-V13 first entered Europe through the Balkans from Anatolia around 7000 BC.

E-M34 is a good sign of Farmers from the Near East, E-V13 was most likely before the EEF started migrating. Now these guys also carried lineages such as E-V22, E-V12, G2a, T1a , L and perhaps but not assuredly R-V88.

I’m by no means an expert on genetics and haplogroups, I’m merely going by what I’ve read on Wikipedia and the information provided by 23andMe. Every source I’ve come across online associates haplogroup E with Afro-Asiatic populations and in particular, the Levant. Do you have some sources to corroborate your information about E being older that R in Europe?
