This project is a meeting place for users who share the R1b1a2 Y-DNA haplogroup, which means they are related along their paternal lines. Users in this group may want to share their family trees with each other to find overlaps and merge duplicate profiles in order to join or expand the World Family Tree and discover new relatives.
The Y / R1b1a2 haplogroup (ISOGG 2012 notation) is the hierarchical name for the clade characterized by mutations L265, M269, M520, S3, S10, S13, S17. The most commonly used name for the clade is M269.
The origin of the clade is thought to be approx 13500 years before present, or 11500 BC - well before historic times. There are many more subclades identified below this one; anyone who is identified only with this subclade can benefit from further testing.
