Polish Y-DNA by Voivodeship (2.700 samples)

Very interesting! One should keep in mind though that the sample size is still very small, but I guess it gives a general idea. No voivodeship is under 50% R1A.

Anything under the N-Y6075 subclade (which includes me) is sort of a "Slavic" branch of N.

On your heatmap it doesn't even cover Podlaskie, only Mazovia. In Suwalki region live many Baltic-influenced Poles (besides Lithuanians). This cannot be right as the peak must be further North-East.

Small? What are you talking about? 2,700 samples is a hell of a lot. Show me a study with 2 million samples.

Are you kidding me? That's still only 0.00007% of the total population. Wanna tell me this is a big number? Not my problem that other studies have small sample sizes as well. But actually I made this comment because the study is not just giving averages for the whole of Poland, but breaks those 2700 samples down into 16 subunits with sample sizes from 35 to about 300.

N1c is though Balts-related in Poland.

This is a heatmap for my specific subclade only.

N-Y6075 and anything under it (including my N-Y17696) is associated mostly with Slavs (a few Magyars too

). One theory about this is that a group of Balts migrating south in the 6th or 7th century were assimilated by the Early Slavs, who were expanding from the East (Belarus/NW Ukraine), to the West.

My specific subclade is rare and broke away from the Baltic region probably more than 1,500 years ago.

It (N-Y17696) is not present in today's Balts, only Slavs. And a Magyar or two.
