But I was predicted R1a1 before.
Now I am R1a1* in FTDNA Terms.
Thats R1a1a* in the latest naming (FTDNA does not use the latest names of the haplogroups)
Your R1a* is also named "R1a1*" now.
It all moved one name forward in 2009. FTDNA hasnt changed that yet.
Thats why one often names Haplogroups by mutations.
I am M17, M198 (Some simply say M17, because, so far, there was not a single one with M17 without M198)
This will never change, while terms like R1a* sometimes do and then everyone is confused.
