[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [QB] Points I have noted before, and shall do so here again: The immediate ancestral clade to the U6 clade has not been identified...at least, when I last checked. U6 is not a sub-clade of any well-defined preexisting "Eurasian" clade! So, calling it "Eurasian" has to be more of an emotional affair than science. The more basal U6 clades are primarily found in western Africa, although a few may have made it to the so-called "Near East" but not in Europe (save for the Iberian peninsula--right next to the westernmost Maghreb; also note: "U6b is more frequent in the North whilst U6a is prevalent in the South"), which is essentially neighboring the former, while the more downstream variants are mainly found in eastern Africa, Europe and the so-called "Near East". There are indications that the initial dispersal of U6 may have coincided with that of M1, prior (likely sometime just before the LGM) to another major one likely involving ancestors of "Afro-Asiatic" speakers.
