What is your mtDNA Haplogroup

[Kelmendasi]

interesting. neolithicness intensifies

Yh lol. T1a was found in Starcevo hehehehe, I heard that maybe some HG could of had it as well as Indo-Europeans, but in majority it seems to be Neolithic

albania north seems to be the closest to early european farmers along with basques and sardinians

Interesting, I would like to see more Tosks get tested so that we can see how much Neolithic admixed they are, so far the majority of Albanians testing are Ghegs mainly from Kosova

Nearly all of T1a1l seems to be from the Balkans:

Damn....
Guess X isn't very common lol.

I'm X2a1b. Just found out recently through Nat Geo's Geno 2.0 (Helix version).

Oddly, I've done both Geno and Ancestry DNA but neither indicate any presence of NA ancestry.

My mother's, mother's family all come from the area in Canada where this Haplogroup is most common. My great grandmother grew up in some place called Iroquois Village. My mother herself has suspected for a long time there might be Iroquois on her mother's side...so while none of my Autosomal DNA backs up her theory....kinda looks like my mtDNA Haplogroup certainly does.

Given I'm Old Stock, WASPy American....none of this is shocking.

As for the rest of the Geno 2.0 Results:

74% NW European
11% NW European
5% E European
3% SW European
7% Asia Minor. On Ancestry this part calculated at about 0-3% from the Caucasus region.

1.5 % Neanderthal

Oh and my top two reference groups, or groups I most resemble genetically speaking came out to be:

1. Danish
2. Norwegian

H11a2a2 for me

[Jana]

H10e. It's most common in northwestern Europe and it was found in Corded Ware ancient sample from Saxony.
Interestingly it was also found in medieval Croatia: ''The number of typed mtDNA from the 10th–12th century contact zone metapopulation13 was enlarged by four 10th century samples from present-day north Croatia. One belonged to a characteristic European H10e haplotype''

H15.

"Eupedia identifies the H15 clade with the Indo-Europeans and specifically yDna R1b. "R1b1b correlates best with mt-haplogroups: H5a, H7, H8, H15, I1a1, J1b1a, K1a3, K1c2, K2a6, U5 and some V subclades (like V15). Minor mt-haplogroups also include U3 and X2."

Goes on to add this about H15, "a rare subclade found in Scotland, Germany, Poland, Austria, Northern Italy, Central Asia (Turkmenistan), Iran and northern India."
