New EURO DNA 2.0

J Man,

On what date did you mail in your kit?

J Man,

On what date did you mail in your kit?

I mailed my first kit back in mid July. They then sent me a second kit back near the end of September if I remember correctly. They needed more DNA they said.

[jvance_elliott]

Thanks for the quick response. (More than I can say for EuroDNA 2.0!) I sent my kit in on June 23rd, but I haven't yet been notified about a mailing date. But then, they didn't ask me to send more DNA either. I hope I didn't fall through the cracks...

No problem. Hopefully your results will be mailed to you soon as well. I hope you dodn't fall through he crack either. This test is a good one I think as it is now leading the way in austosomal testing.

Since my results will hopefully be here soon I am speculating about the real meaning of the different European sub groups again.

How about this:

Southeastern European=Neolithic farming/Greek ancestry.
Continental European=Indigenous Northwest European ancestry/Celtic or Germanic
Iberian=Indigenous Iberian ancestry from ancient Iberia
Basque=Indigenous Southwestern European Basque ancestry
Northeastern European=Finno-Ugrian ancestry

ANyone have any comments or speculations about this?

I wonder what Celtic is

Since the Celts are/were Indoeuropeans, that leaves tens of thousands of years of peoples in Western Europe before the Celts got there.

MMMhmmm. I am thinking that the Celtic people were probably majority Continental European. I may be wrong but the evidence in European genetic substructure I think would support that.

[PDHOTLEN]

speculating again...

The way it looks to me, at this point, is that the precursors of the Celts/Kelts arrived from the east, probably up the Danube. I don't know what Y-DNA they were, but it would be one of the currently dominant Y-DNA haplogroups in Western Europe. They probaly eliminated or reduced the earlier populations' males from the breeding pool. But the earlier peoples' females are still well represented, e.g. I would guess haplogroup U5b. Maybe the incoming Celtic females were originally haplogroup H or U5a, or something else such as J. Anyway the Celts are only an overlay onto the earlier established population that they incorporated into their culture and language. That culture was originally centered in the central Rhine region before expanding in various directions. I have a paperback about the Celts, but it doesn't incude DNA analysis.

Any Word Yet From AncestryByDNA?

All,

Has anyone gotten their EuroDNA 2.0 results yet? If not, has anyone inquired recently about the continued delay? I don't know about you guys, but they've had my DNA for at least 22 weeks...

News from DnaPrint

Hello,

I don't have very good news for the ones who are waiting for their EuropeanDNA 2.0 test results.

DnaPrint received my DNA sample 21 weeks ago.

I asked them when I should expected to get my results.

Their answer has been:

< The EuropeanDNA 2.0 test is a one of a kind test and has been delayed due to technical difficulties.This is a new test on a new instrument, and it is taking a longer time than we anticipated in getting our analyses fine tuned. We anticipate that the fine tuning of our analysis process will take us until the end of March, and we hope to get your European 2.0 results to you at that time >
We sincerely apologize for this delay.
Thanks for Your Patience,
Sarah Stephenson

I think that we will have to wait another three months !

I wasn't gonna look at this thread because I don't qualify for DNA Print's Euro 2.0.
A delay of 3 more months for you guys?

There is DNA Tribes Europa report, if anyone is interested in that. That's the one I took.

I thought mtdna U originated in Greece, and that it went north because of the Greek trading colonies.

[PDHOTLEN]

clueless

As for me, I'm just an interested bystander. Haplogroup U is so old that it radiated out and diverged into several strains. The celts and Classical Greeks are from modern times, compared with what went on before, as far as haplogroup U goes.

I'm still trying to figure out my American roots.

I'm sure I must be a mix of all Europe. My ancestors weren't static. I probably have a little of everything. My DNA Tribes reports matches me to almost all of Europe, and then some (I even match North India, Asia Minor, North Africa, Arabian). My maternal grandfather has been to so many places during his life that I may have some unknown cousins, even as far away as the South Pacific. He went to France over a dozen times (with my grandmother). It seems that every generation moves. I moved from where I was born, my parents moved from where they were born, and their parents moved...no... wait, just my mom's parents moved away from where they were born. It's a pattern. I'm not surprised that it was done for thousands of years.
It's the Native American or Central Asian that has me baffled. I'm sure I mentioned that a gazillion times already. AncestryByDna says I'm 17% Native American but they're native American coincides with Cenral Asian
All I know is that my moms score is zero so I must have inherited it from my father. His mothers side was Colonial American, his fathers side was 20th century naturalized American.

oops ...it's past the 15 minute edit limit. i meant 'their' not 'they're'
