Talk:Haplogroup L-M20

Untitled

 * Has anyone noticed the eerie phonetic similarity between the names Baluchistan, Balochistan, etc. and the ancient Mesopotamian references to a place in the east called "Meluhha" and the Aryan references to barbarian "Mlecchas" and their ilk? Not to mention the modern ethnonym of the people who speak the Brahui language. Ebizur 21:44, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Link to www.familytreedna.com
I noticed that the link to www.familytreedna.com was broken, but wasn't sure exactly where it originally pointed to. Familytreedna does have a project page on haplogroup L, but I'm not sure anything there supports the statements in the paragraph that are attributed to the link. I redirected the link to the Familytreedna haplogroup L project page, but there are probably better web pages out there to support the contention that European members of haplogroup L likely belong to subclade L2. And actually, my personal experience is that European members are just as likely to belong to no subclade that has yet to be identified as to subclade L2. (These would be designated as L*.)

West Asia section
The West Asia and the Central Asia section could probably be represented better in a table. nihar (talk) 11:36, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I have put a table for West Asia, when I find time I will put one for Central Asia too. Meanwhile if somebody finds time, please go ahead. I will join you. nihar (talk) 05:04, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Who is Yunusbayev and from what areas his Avars?
There are different opinions of different scientists, and you have only one B.Yunusayev. But he isn't Caucasian, and the ethnic turk from turkic Bashkortostan (Ural-region) and came it to Dagestan for the purpose of creation some the Pan-Turkist propaganda myths. In its work isn't present what words for example Avars he investigated, from what villages and areas they were. Other scienist K.Bulayeva instead of Avars investigated Akhvakhs. from the village of Novomekhelta. As far as I know B.Yunusbayev has data from non-avarian inhabitants from Ashilta. It not Avars in general. There are no data of Avars. It everything forgery. Let he will specify from what villages, from what areas are his so called Avars? Instead of Avars these geneticists for some reason use anny the anti-Avarian separatists.I insist on that opinions of other scientists were used. Moreover, in these works it has to be surely specified from what villages, from what areas materials, differently it not science undertook, and charlatanism is simple.37.139.52.40 (talk) 00:26, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Indus Valley Civilisation
There is an obvious, yet unsourced, link with the Indus Valley Civilisation. Does anybody care to find sources for this link? Joshua Jonathan  -  Let's talk!   06:42, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Pakistani origins?
Interesting comment on Sepgupta et al. (2006):
 * "the article isolates three subgroups of haplogroup L. They are characterized as follows: L1 M76, L2 M317, L3 M357 (as explained, the names are now different in ISOGG.). The latter two are novel markers. Interestingly, the Indian sample is predominantly L1, while the Pakistani L's are more or less half L1 and half L3 (plus a couple L2 among the Makrani), which suggest that the haplogroup may have originated in the NW/Pakistan area rather than in Southern India. Unlike some previous papers, the group seems overall more frequent, and more dispersed, in Pakistan than in India."

unclear sentence
"The International Society of Genetic Genealogy (ISOGG) also provides an amateur tree." This is an unclear sentence regarding the meaning of the "also". Please note correctly what you mena!!! 2A02:8108:9640:AC3:6D92:387A:377:A801 (talk) 13:26, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

The para "Bactria–Margiana Archaeological Complex" obviously has been added completely neglecting any context. This is a bad sign for the author.2A02:8108:9640:AC3:6D92:387A:377:A801 (talk) 13:31, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

L-M20
1 person in the United States, Moses, has this Haplogroup, he is part of A00, specifically A-PR291, his current Haplogroup is Q-M242. I'm guessing because of his connection to A-PR291 he has a lot of groups in him. 184.100.50.165 (talk) 19:59, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
