We have the first Big Y result of our " Atlantic Western Iberian" cluster of J1-M365. Kit 373385. Now we can compare my kit 73612, F7S61A Full Genomes Corporation test, a very good one, with the Big Y. In my first analysis we share 99 FGC SNPs of the 188. We also share a first basal SNP FGC6064 with Kitching, English, kit 381875. With Darwish, Persian Gulf, kit M96967, we share 44 SNPs from my sequence: M365, FGC6020, FGC6027, FGC6028, FGC6029, FGC6030, FGC6031, FGC6034, FGC6036, FGC6044, FGC6045, FGC6048, FGC6051, FGC6057, FGC6068, FGC6069, FGC6076, FGC6080, FGC6096, FGC6098, FGC6099, FGC6101, FGC6103, FGC6104, FGC6112, FGC6113, FGC6115, FGC6118, FGC6125, FGC6126, FGC6127, FGC6130, FGC6141, FGC6142, FGC6144, FGC6145, FGC6150, FGC6153, FGC6156, FGC6159, FGC6167, FGC6169, FGC6170, FGC6174. With Sousa Lara, Portuguese, kit 373385 more 55 SNPs from my sequence (add the 44 with M9697, 44+55 = 99 SNPs) : FGC5988, FGC5989, FGC5990, FGC5992, FGC6018, FGC6019, FGC6023, FGC6024, FGC6025, FGC6033, FGC6034, FGC6035, FGC6037, FGC6038, FGC6039, FGC6040, FGC6041, FGC6047, FGC6060, FGC6066, FGC6070, FGC6071, FGC6072, FGC6073, FGC6075, FGC6077, FGC6081, FGC6085, FGC6088, FGC6090, FGC6094, FGC6095, FGC6097, FGC6107, FGC6109, FGC6111, FGC6119, FGC6128, FGC6132, FGC6133, FGC6134, FGC6136, FGC6137, FGC6139, FGC6143, FGC6146, FGC6147, FGC6149, FGC6151, FGC6157, FGC6158, FGC6165, FGC6168, FGC6171, FGC6175. Results will go to YFull as soon as we receive the BAM.file. It looks like geneticists are afraid to investigate J1 from Northern Iran and the Caspian Sea. The last article was "Afghan Hindu Kush: Where Eurasian Sub-Continent Gene Flows Converge". Julie Di Cristofaro et al. PLOS. October 2013. Figure S7 . Iran, Gilan - More than 10% of Gilaki, Caspian Sea is J-M267*(xPage08, xDYS388-13). They refused to test M365 there and Nadia Al-Zahery found another type of M365 positive to P58 in the "footprint of the Sumerians" when we know M365 is negative to P58 because now we have three full sequences. That can be an error or a rare recurrent SNP because no other J1 M365 was found in the entire FTDNA database except our J1-M365 group. FTDNA does not recognize M365 as a terminal SNP in the J1 haplotree, I don't know why ? I have found some relatively close STR matches between our Western Iberian and the Gilakis and I think they can be M365 or any basal SNP downstream of FGC6064 or any other basal SNP from our sequence and they have always been there because they were probably born in that region. We need fossils from Northern iran, like Hotu Cave, Belt Cave (Pinhasi - samples) or Northern Iranian sites from the Mesolithic or Paleolithic and we will be surprised ! I think J1-P58 was born around the Armenian Plateau and they only arrived and conquered the Arabian Plate and the Levant after the neolithisation with new types of arid pastoralism. J1 first developed and probably was born North and East of J2, just observe the Caucasian Eastern locations of J1 and I think some basal types of J1 were born close to the Iranian Plateau and the Caspian Sea. Unfortunately we don't have any NGS study about ancient Iranian J1 types because that's a very sensitive issue in the region and can challenge the established Indo-European and Semitic lobbies. Ancient J1 Near Eastern ancestry was different from the one giving rise to early European farmers and that ancient Near Eastern ancestry was present in the Yamnaya admixture from the steppe and came from the ancient Caspian populations of Iranic origin where types of J1 were born.
