Y-DNA of 129 high quality shotgun ancient samples

The Reich Lab has recently pre-published high quality shotgun sequencing data from 216 ancient individuals within the framework of the Allen Ancient Genome Diversity Project / John Templeton Ancient DNA Atlas. Metadata for the 216 genomes are available here.

Their median coverage is 4.9x, and among them there are 50 high coverage genomes (17-36x), but there are also samples with a coverage similar to the previously published ones.

The FamilyTreeDNA Haplotree team formed by phylogeneticist Michael Sager and Göran Runfeldt from the R&D team has analyzed all 129 males for Y-SNP calls, using – and updating with them – their database of more than 40,000 branches as of March 2021. Of course, the main source of SNP data for their haplotree comes from modern Big Y testers, whose hope is usually to find matches among modern and ancient testers, to expand their genealogical tree or get an idea of the ancestral origins of their patrilines.

NOTE. I am not affiliated to FTDNA in any form, and I cannot help you decide for one or another test. My advice, if you want to get a test for yourself or a family member, would be to join some online group or contact experts online, and if possible wait for one of the various discounts that are offered at different times of the year. I am sure there are a lot of people willing and able to help you with this.

ftdna-y-snp-shotgun-cut
List of shotgunned samples with Y-SNP calls from FTDNA. See full picture.

I have added all new Y-SNP calls with their updated position in the haplotree in the Ancient DNA Dataset. Notice that the new shotgun-sequenced analyses are underlined (Object-ID and responsible-SNP columns), with a reference to SG in the responsible-SNP column. Also, the column for coverage on autosomal targets has been modified if the shotgunned sample has better coverage (green background).

You can find samples visually with the ArcGIS Online Map, and in short also through AncientDna.info. For modern FTDNA testers and their location relative to ancient ones, my advice is to use SNP Tracker. Some specific branches might be still inactive in the Y-DNA Haplotree, but they will probably be updated today.

The following is a list of samples with some highlights and short comments on some of the most interesting findings, as far as I can tell at first sight. Other samples with Y-SNP calls by FTDNA are occasionally listed for comparison (using a smaller font size). Feel free to comment below if you see something else.

    R1b-M269

    R1b-L51

    Recent analyses by FTDNA show among others the following ancient L51:

    I6222R-P310 • Afanasievo Bayankhongor aimag • Bayankhongor aimag, Erdenetsogt sum, Shatar chuluu kurgan 2 (3320-2918 calBCE).

    In the oral communication by David Anthony, he referred to the obvious strict patrilineal society of the Yamnaya, but with a caveat: while almost all males sampled show R1b-L23 subclades, individuals interred in the same or nearby sites were usually not directly related to each other within less than 4 generations.

    One of the most interesting revelations of the year, at least for the confirmation of mainstream linguistic theories concerning PIE, is the finding of IBD sharing among 4 samples closely related to each other, descended from the same individual 5-7 generations before, despite being separated by thousands of km.: Yamnaya males from the Carpathian Basin and Moldova, an Afanasievo male, as well as one Yamnaya female from the Samara region.

    r1b-l51-z2103-yamnaya-bell-beaker-europe
    Distribution of R1b-Z2103 and early or ‘archaic’ R1b-L51 subclades in ancient Yamnaya-related samples from Europe, overlaid over a map of Yamnaya and Bell Beaker migrations. In dark blue, R1b-Z2103. In blue, early R1b-L51 or R1b-L51(xP310). In slate blue, basal R1b-P310*. In violet, early R1b-P310 or R1b-L51(xP312,xU106). In maroon, basal R1b-L151*. In yellow, basal R1b-P312*. Earliest samples are bigger, latest samples are more transparent.

    Since the referred Yamnaya male from Eastern Slovakia is probably one of those L51 with an ancestry intermediate between Yamnaya and Bell Beakers hinted in Szécsényi-Nagy’s oral communication, it would mean that either the three males are all descended from the same basal R-P310* as this Afanasievo individual, or that they are of different (L51 and Z2103) subclades but related through mixed family ties.

    In any case, you could not get a nicer indirect confirmation of the proposed cultural and linguistic origin of all Late Proto-Indo-European dialects in population genomics, even if you planned for it.

    R-L151>A8053

    I7043R-A8053 • proto-Nagyrév • Szigetszentmiklós-Üdülősor (2138-1973 calBCE).

    NOTE. His brother I7041 (P310+) joins him in this haplogroup assignment.

    These samples of the proto-Nagyrév culture – local continuation of the Yamnaya in the Carpathian Basin – who display ca. 40% Yamnaya ancestry were previously believed to be basal L151* (with one ancestral call for A8053). They have turned out to be basal R-A8053*, and as such they are the first (and only) ones of this haplogroup to appear in ancient DNA. This offers further support to the role of the Yamnaya from the Carpathian Basin as the immediate origin of Bell Beakers.

    The presence of known R-L151 branches in the region as Yamnaya-derived locals – before being replaced by intrusive steppe-rich Csepel Bell Beakers of hg. R-Z2103 (with ancestral roots in Moravia) shows how genetic data from the mid-3rd millennium in Central Europe cannot be interpreted without a proper archaeological assessment of the complex population movements in the region.

    This is yet another example of how modern testers can often distort the real picture of ancient DNA. In this case, as in many others, because of the clear overtesting among peoples descended from Northern and North-Western Europeans.

    R-L151>P312

  • SZ42R-P312 • Longobard migration • Szólád, Hungary (412-604 CE).
  • I4073R-P312 • BK_Netherlands_Tui • De Tuithoorn, Oostwoud, Noord-Holland (2197-1897 calBCE).
  • The fact that a basal R-P312* line from Oostwoud is not found in modern descendants, despite the region being well represented among FTDNA customers, suggests that this specific P312 lineage is a dead end.

    R-L151>P312>DF19

  • I5748R-Z302 • BK_Netherlands_Tui • De Tuithoorn, Oostwoud, Noord-Holland (2579-2211 calBCE).
  • Other ancient R-DF19 samples analyzed by FTDNA include the following:

    6DT23R-S4268 • England Roman gladiators • Driffield Terrace (50-350 CE)
    VK333R-Z29034 • Viking Sweden • Oland (772-1014 calCE).

  • I2860R-Z30597 • Scotland_LBA • Covesea Cave 2, Moray, Scotland (969-812 calBCE).
  • Other R-FGC84729 samples analyzed by FTDNA include the following:

    R-L151>P312>Z290>L21>DF13

  • I3132R-S5488 • Scotland_CA_EBA • Covesea Cave 2, Moray, Scotland (2126-1886 calBCE).
  • I2859R-FGC12055 • Scotland_LBA • Covesea Caves, Moray, Scotland (912-808 calBCE).
  • I2445R-BY132302 • BK_England_SOU • Yarnton, Oxfordshire, England (2200-1985 calBCE).
  • There are many ancient R-DF13 tested by FTDNA. The most relevant one for these newly shotgun-sequenced ones is probably a Pict sampled from Orkney (another one is I-Y3712, see below):

    VK203R-BY10450 • Pict Orkney • Orkney (54-668 CE).

    According to the recent talk by David Reich, there is as much as 50% population replacement during the MBA-LBA transition in Great Britain, marked by an increase in EEF-related ancestry, suggesting that Celtic languages started spreading into the British Isles at roughly the same time or slightly later than they spread into Iberia. The survival of Bell Beaker lineages in Scotland might be a key to understand (at least in population genomics) the ethnic background of Picts.

    R-L151>P312>ZZ11>DF27

  • I3123R-Z198 • Sicily_EBA • Sicily, Buffa (2287-2041 calBCE).
  • I6470R-FT10154 • Cogotas I • Virgazal, Tablada de Rudrón, Burgos, Castilla y León (1746-1540 calBCE).
  • I6470 splits the current R-FT9510 branch.

    Of note, one of the earliest radiocarbon-dated R1b-L23 samples available to date in Europe also comes from the Sicily_EBA group, and is probably DF27>Z195, too:

    I11443R-P312 • Sicily_EBA • Sicily, Buffa (2872-2476 calBCE).

    NOTE. Of course, radiocarbon dates cannot be taken out of cultural (and now also genetic) context. In this case, all other Buffa Cave II materials show BBC & Capo Graziano pottery and similar (much later) radiocarbon dates, with a late date of steppe-related intrusion, ergo this sample and its radiometric assessment need to be rechecked or else ignored. We have seen that problem already with the Alexandria sample, with the Hajji Firuz sample, and quite evidently also with those “earliest” Steppe-related Switzerland_LN samples.

    R-L151>P312>ZZ11>U152>L2

  • I4889R-P312(U152+,L2+) • BK_Czech_CZE • Prague 8, Kobylisy, Ke Stírce Street (2284-2056 calBCE).
  • I7249R-L2 • Bell_Beaker_Czech • Brandysek (2138-1973 calBCE).
  • I7278R-L2 • Bell_Beaker_Czech • Brandysek (2462-2298 calBCE).
  • I7212R-L2 • • Radovesice (2454-2201 calBCE).
  • I7286R-L2 • BK_Czech_CZE • Radovesice (2403-2199 calBCE).
  • I7289R-P312(L2+) • BK_Czech_CZE • Radovesice (2456-2209 calBCE).
  • Some of these are basal R-L2*, without a modern relative, which – as in the Netherlands – attests to the mix of dead ends and surviving patrilines in the context of Czech Bell Beakers.

    R-L151>P312>ZZ11>U152>L2>Z46080

  • I4888R-Z46080 • BK_Czech_CZE • Prague 8, Kobylisy, Ke Stírce Street (2195-2027 calBCE).
  • This new L2 subclade is formed together with another sample from (Central-)Western Europe.

    R-L151>P312>ZZ11>U152

  • I5835R-DF110 • BK_Germany_BAV • Irlbach, County of Straubing-Bogen, Bavaria (2500-2000 BCE).

    Another ancient of hg. R-DF110 has been analyzed to date:

    R33R-DF110 • Late Antiquity Rome • Mausoleo di Augusto (300-700 CE).

    This haplogroup is today also prevalent in (North-)Western Europe, as opposed to the likely prevalence in Central(-Eastern) Europe during the expansion of East Bell Beakers.

    R-Z2103

    R-Z2103>M12149>FT406553

  • I3387R-FT406553 • Afanasievo Middle Yenisei • Middle Yenisei region, Afanasieva Gora (2950-2600 BCE).
  • Forms a new branch under R-M12149 with I6712:

    I6712R-FT406553 • Afanasievo Middle Yenisei • Middle Yenisei region, Afanasieva Gora (2857-2501 calBCE )

    R-Z2103>M12149>FTA29814

  • I5279R-FTA29814 • Afanasievo Tyumechin • Lower Tyumechin 1 (3011-2897 calBCE).
  • Apparently forms a new branch under R-M12149 with a modern sample from the Western Balkans.

    R-Z2103>M12149>Z2109

  • I3952R-Z2109 • Afanasievo Karasuk • Altai Mountains, Yenisey River, left bank of Karasuk tributary, Karasuk III (2868-2577 calBCE).
  • I5277R-Z2109 • Afanasievo Elo • Elo Bashi (3092-2923 BCE).
  • I5269R-Z2109 • Afanasievo Elo • Elo 1 (3016-2897 calBCE).
  • I5273R-BY185688 • Afanasievo Tyumechin • Lower Tyumechin 1 (3011-2885 calBCE).
  • I5273 apparently forms a new branch with a modern tester from Italy. Even though three of the samples remain basal – and are as such each one of them potential dead ends relative to modern populations – the number of testers from Asia is comparatively very limited, so it is hard to draw any conclusions about their survival into the present day.

  • I4436R-FTA35785 • Latvia_HG • Zvejnieki (4318-4051 calBCE).
  • Most early North-Eastern European R-M73 samples seem to belong to the FTA35755 subclade, whereas more recent samples of Eastern Europe and Asia (including VK531, from Norway) belong to Y13202. The latter is thus the most successful branch in terms of modern descendants.

    R-PF6323

  • I4916R-FT360000 • Iron_Gates_HG • Hadučka Vodenica (7035-6590 calBCE).

  • I1734R-PF6362 • Ukraine_Mesolithic • Vasil’evka (7451-7056 calBCE).
  • Thanks to these new shotgun versions, apparently, the PF6292 branch has been renamed R-V88 (now evidently including its namesake SNP, V88), whereas the previous V88 branch is now renamed as R-PF6287. For more on the origin and expansion of R-PF6323, see here.

  • NOTE. Some of these form part of Family A (3 members): I6718 is the father of son I3393, who is a 2nd or 3rd degree relative of I3394.

    These basal R-S23592* and downstream R-FGC56408* lineages that split the S23592 trunk and their presence in the Minusinsk Basin – the traditional location of Proto-Samoyed after the demise of the Afanasievo culture – as well their continuation into the Tagar period, offer further support to the nature of the easternmost Cherkaskul expansion as Pre-Proto-Samoyedic, and of the Cherkaskul territory as a whole (where many R-S23592 samples have been found) as representative of the Eastern Uralic expansion. Materials from the Orak burial ground show Fëdorovo and Karasuk traits, which fits with an assumed Cherkaskul context and its continuation into the Early Iron Age.

    Together with the R1a-M198* from Central European Corded Ware and Sintashta, this R1a-YP4141 lineage spreading with Steppe_MLBA ancestry supports that the Proto-Corded Ware community originated in some R1a-rich population of the north Pontic region.
