Warsaw (capital of Poland) has no haplotype (within its commonest 20
haplotypes) containing DYS392=13 and DYS393=14. It has only one haplotype
with DYS392=13 within its top 20 haplotypes, and that one is absolutely R1b.
Why? It is bang smack AMH.
Seems to me that at least the biggest sample in Poland (and i have not
looked at the smaller samples) is identical to Finland.
Keep trying, John, I appreciate the time you are spending nit-picking on the
fine detail of the tiniest part of my study. It is very decent of you.
