I just got back my mtDNA results (I'm a female and that's all I can have done) and am trying to pull as much info as possible from them. My haplogroup is HV1 and from what I've gathered, it is not a common one, from Europe and that some decendant lineages of the "original" group appean in the Near East - which would be where? They say it might be "one of the original mitrochondial haplogroups in Europe and likely pre-dates" farming. Also, what do I interpret that to mean? Meat eaters? Wanderers? Vegetarians? Cave Men? The info seems extraordinarily vague.
Also my sequence has three mutations but I cannot determine through any recsearch I've done so far, what are relevant about the mutations. They are:
16067T, 16183C, 16189C and 16519C.
I know it related to the "pairs" but what is the relevance of the location of the mutation? What do they signify, if anything? Is that an intermarriage with a different haplogroup? Is it a "normal" mutation? Does it signify a specific period of time that can be measured in hundreds or thousands of years?
So far, I got nothing. Anyone with more knowledge, please help.
