  1. M168 M242 M130 M91 M304 M96 M60 M201 M175 M173 M9 M45 M170 M52 M89 The final lineage to arise from the Y-chromosome tree appeared about 15,000 years ago in Central Asia when a mutation, called M242, occurred in a man on the M45 line. This mutation marks haplogroup Q. NEXT

  2. yDNA Haplogroup Q

  3. M173 M242 M45 As opposed to the earlier R (M173) lineage, which had migrated west into Europe, most Q-men (M242) followed the endless grasslands of Central Asia to the east. 15,000 BC NEXT

  4. Juan Pablo Mexico M3 M173 M242 M45 Toward the eastern end of haplogroup Q’s range in Siberia a later mutation (M3) occurred to produce the subclade called Q3. This is the group to which all Native American men belong. Raymundo Peru 15,000 BC NEXT

  5. Alan Sweden M3 M173 M242 M45 After the appearance of the M242 mutation more than 99% of haplogroup Q men migrated eastward into Siberia or the New World. A few, however, turned west to colonize parts of Scandinavia. One such westward-traveling Q-man was Prof. Alan Almquist’s deep paternal ancestor, whose descendants settled in Sweden and eventually emigrated to America. 15,000 BC NEXT
