My paternal haplogroup is j2b2, maternal is b2b
>J2b has a quite different distribution from J2a.
>Neolithic and Chalcolithic cultures of Southeast Europe.
>Balkans, Central Europe and Italy, with max frequency around Albania, Kosovo, Montenegro and Northwest Greece - the part of the Balkans which best resisted the Slavic invasions in the Early Middle Ages.
>J2b2 and G2a3b1 were two minor lineages spread within an R1a-dominant population during the Indo-Aryan invasions of South Asia approximately 3,500 years ago.
feels good.
Posting genetic makeup. Guess the country my parents are from.

R1b-U106. Germanic. My particular subclade is most common in northern England, particularly Yorkshire. Oldest U106 we have is from southern Sweden, around 4,000 years ago.
K2b. Most common in central/eastern Europe, associated with the spread of Y-R1a.Oldest sample from Andronovo, a likely Indo-Iranian culture.
have no idea, judging from my location I should most likely have either I2a2/R1b/G2a as paternal one and H/U as maternal one, but going by my surname it's more likely R1b or J2 as paternal one
Location and surname aren't really correlated with haplogroups. To the dismay of many, haplogroups are very old, older than civilization. Of course guessing either R1b or J2 are pretty good guesses for an Italian. You'll never know for sure until you do a test.

well they are going to be correlated through the geographical distribution of surnames in part, my surname is very common but is mostly located in north Italian/Tuscany and in those areas R1b and J2 mostly dominate
it's not going to be a strong correlation though, a test is indeed needed

>Probably from either the Xavante or Kayapo people for me.

It appears that J2 appears consistently throughout Greece hovering near 20% for each region, but spikes in Crete with 30%! Hmmm...

Considering the fact that j2b2 first appears from the Balkans, j2b2 must have spread across the globe but either assimilating with the Greeks or staying in the Balkans to form Illyria. J2b2 expanded throughout Europe during the times of Rome.
Who here /Roman/?

You know, other than Iceland and Eastern Britain, that map probably hasn't changed since the bronze age.
