The top Old World frequencies for the partial haplotype below include the Uigurs (or Uyghurs) of China, an area

settled by the Goths in Sweden, Iran, Northern Italy, expatriate Lithuanians in Poland and Kurds in Iraq. Since these

matches are not filtered by DYS385a,b values, there is a strong chance of convergence with other haplogroups,

but the samples cited above could reflect an origin among steppe nomads such as the Indo-Iranians (e.g.,

Scythians and Sarmatians) and the Huns. This haplotype could have come to Britain with Sarmatians or

Alans or other Roman troops of Asiatic descent.
