What's Your Y-DNA Haplogroup?

R1b... boring.

Y-DNA: T

Particular subclad is found among Crimean and Pontic Greeks, despite my paternal ancestry traces to NorthWest Caucasus so probably a Black sea thing.

. I'm curious about my possible pending results.
The closest guy matching me was Gustafsson from Sweden and West from the USA, so possibility of having Z280 negative is high.
If Z284, it would be one of the few "Scandinavians" in Poland. If not Z284 then maybe Z283(like you). My Y-STR results are somewhat unique.

My test for Z284 resulted negative, as expected. It looks like I do belong to a rare paragroup of Z283*. I'm currently awaiting my test for Z282 to be finnished.

Whatever the haplogroup is for North Europe.

Z282? Something recently discovered, I suppose.

Yes, it is. One of the admins at R1a and subclades, Michel, suggests that all Z283* should test the latest Z282 SNP.

Is it true true that it is still not known whether Z282 is an ancestral type to Z283 or not? The scheme indicates two possible directions but it could be out of date.

This is nothing what I know of. According to a Polish guy from another forum, Z282 has not yet been tested with M458.

My best advice is to ask Michel.

R1a1a1g, although this subclade is constantly changing due to new findings. This subclade is most typically associated with the Slavic people, probably originating in modern day Poland, or its surrounds.
