What is the Celtic haplogroup?

R1b-L21 is likely a haplogroup belonging to the Insular Celts (among others), who migrated to Western Europe during the Bronze Age, populating vast regions of what is now Ireland, Great Britain, Northern Spain and northern France.

What race is R1b?

R1b is a subclade within the “macro-haplogroup” K (M9), the most common group of human male lines outside of Africa. K is believed to have originated in Asia (as is the case with an even earlier ancestral haplogroup, F (F-M89).

How old is R1b?

Overall, the age of R1b-DF27 is estimated at ~4,200 years ago, at the transition between the Neolithic and the Bronze Age, when the Y chromosome landscape of W Europe was thoroughly remodeled.

What is the newest haplogroup?

Haplogroup G (M201) originated some 48,000 years ago and its most recent common ancestor likely lived 26,000 years ago in the Middle East.

What kind of haplogroup is R1b1a1a2?

Haplogroup R-M269, also known as R1b1a1a2, is a sub-clade of human Y-chromosome haplogroup R1b . It is of particular interest for the genetic history of Western Europe. It is defined by the presence of SNP marker M269. R M269 has been the subject of intensive research; it was previously also known as R1b1a2…

Where are Bell Beaker artefacts found in Europe?

The Bell Beaker artefacts at least in their early phase are not distributed across a contiguous area as is usual for archaeological cultures, but are found in insular concentrations scattered across Europe. Their presence is not associated with a characteristic type of architecture or of burial customs.

When did the Bell Beaker culture end in Britain?

Arising from around 2800 BC, it lasted in Britain until as late as 1800 BC but in continental Europe only until 2300 BC, when it was succeeded by the Unetice culture.
