[QUOTE]Originally posted by Calypso: [QB] What is the provenance of E-M78 according to the [b]AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HUMAN GENETICS[/b]: [QUOTE]In conclusion, high-resolution Y-chromosome haplotyping and particular microsatellite associations reveal regional population differentiations, [b]an East Africa homeland for E-M78, and recent gene-flow episodes consistent with the Neolithic in Europe.[/b] In particular, the spatial distributions of J-M172*, J-M267, E-M78, and E-M123 indicate expansions from the Middle East toward Europe [/QUOTE]What about the "CLASSICAL" Greeks? Did the carry East African lineages? Well lets look at what the AM Journal of Human Genetics says. Geneticists wanted to test the hypothesis that Greeks colonized parts of Italy starting around 750BC. They decided that the best way is to test the populations in the relevant regions of Italy for [b]"Greek signature lineages"[/b]. What are these lineages: J and E3B (E-M78) [QUOTE]Southern Italy (Apulia and Calabria) contains sites of the early Neolithic period (Whitehouse 1968), but we know from history that these regions were subsequently colonized by the Greeks (Peloponnesians). [b]To test the relative contribution of Greek colonists versus putative earlier Neolithic settlers, an admixture analysis (Bertorelle and Excoffier 1998) was performed, using E-M78 and J-M172(xM12) as signatures of Greek and Anatolian lineages, respectively.[/b][/QUOTE] http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1181965 [/QB][/QUOTE]
