Group #22 has tested out by the FTDNA and Whit Athey's Haplogroup Predictor as "I1 (M253)" "Adam" -> M168 -> M89 -> M170 -> M258 -> M253 - Previously classified as "I1a" Family Tree DNA now classifies this group as "I-M253" According to the population study by Rootsi, et. al. (2004), the I1 haplotype group is most dense in Norway, and the I haplotype group is most dense in the area of Croatia. (In 2004, the current I1 classification was I1a.) Population density is an indication of origins. From Table 1 in the Rootsi paper, the I1a haplotype ( M253 - now I1 ) is most dense in Norway, South Sweden, Saami, North Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, and France (Low Normandy). NOTE:
Haplotype Groups were re-classified by Family Tree DNA in May, 2008. This affected the following existing groups: R1b1c became R1b1b2 I1a became I1 I1b became I I1c became I2b E3b1a became E1b1b1 |
