The map really points out the Germanic element to me. The red-orange areas
were places were Germans were heavily settled or lived for centuries. They
obviously left a strong genetic mark on the local population, even after
they were forcefully removed from Eastern Europe after 1946 or repatried
later.

Ken,

You certainly get the credit for spotting the R1b DYS390=23 trend several
years ago.

With EA testing for S21 and FTDNA for DYS492, we can now see correlations
between DYS390-23, DYS492=13, and S21. I feel those correlations suggest
S21 (with likely ancestral DYS390=23) spread from southeastern or eastern
Europe to the west.

See http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~geneticgenealogy/1313.htm for
the latest distributions of 13/13/23 (393/392/390) based on YHRD, BOTI, and
other academic papers.
