    Well H2a2 originated around Central Asia and expanded into Europe and west Asia with Neolithic farmers. H2a2a1 can be found all over Europe and iirc is most common in Scandinavia.

    The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars ... have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battle-field, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse. But he has no horse, nor proper weapons for battle. Instead of the horse, he has a lance which strikes as lightning, he has spears who's points are full of posion as the sting of hornets, he has also a wooden bow with some arrows. Furthermore, he is stronger than iron ...

    I think it is accurate. James Slick got my mtdna subclade accurate before I had tested with FMS on FTDNA. If you want to find out more about your MTDNA you need to invest in more testing.
    The Irish Brigade's battle cry at Fontenoy, "Cuimhnigí ar Luimneach agus ar feall na Sasanaigh," translates to "Remember Limerick and the treachery of the English." After seeing the devastation caused by the Irish Brigade, the Duke of Cumberland reportedly remarked, "God curse the laws that made those men our enemies".

    James Slick got my subclade right too, when 23andme had just given me H. I later got my mtdna fully sequenced with ftdna and it matched James Slick’s prediction.

    Living DNA also gave me my full subclade in their standard test.

    I am still sceptical. How can mtDna be predicted based on autosomal DNA ? They are not even connected.
