N2 in ethnic Serbs

[Shubotai]

N2-Y6503> subclade N-P189.2
Different than N1 found in Asia and Finno-Ugrics

Found in Europe, mostly ethnic Serbs from Montenegro, Republika Srpska, Vojvodina and Croatia
A basal sample of N* from the Botai culture might belong to N2
Ancestral branches found in Russia

Definitely most interesting Haplo in Europe. I'm imagining how one Siberian came to Balkan and made offsprings with Balkan woman/women during early Neolithic.

Thats how cca 1-2% of Siberian component in our autosomal genetics came here.

It's a very cool and mysterious haplogroup.

Spoiler!

There's a few lone carriers of that haplo in western Europe. I wonder how and when it got there.

[Shubotai]

It is now present in all Balkan peoples also with a low frequency 4% in Serbians from Republika Srpska, 3-4% in Bosnians and Croatians, 2-3% in Serbians, 2% in Albanians, 1% in North Macedonians, 1% Greeks and <0.5% in Bulgarians and Romanians but there is also N1 in Eastern Balkans. The ancestral subclades of N2-Y6516>7310 are from Romania and Rostov Oblast in Russia. And the western European samples are from a subclade parallel to it. And what haplogroup could Milan Stanković be? It would be nice if the Serbian Poreklo DNA project could test him.

what's the source for this?

[Shubotai]

This map is from a topic in the poreklo forum, the discussion is in Serbian.

This is about its distribution, but when searching for its origins we have to rule out Balkan areas that it was spread later like Greece where it probably came with Serbians in the 13th century and try to connect it with an asiatic tribe during the Middle Ages, maybe Avars, some other tribe that went unrecorded or even some persons that came as part of another group in the northern Balkans. The most basal sample of N2* was found in Altai and I think there is a new one from Kazakhstan.

There's an Assyrian from Kirkuk, Iraq that is N-P189.2*, he's on Y-Full. Never thought it would show up among us. His autosomal scores are typical with no recent European.
