AB-034

Jewish Y-DNA branch AB-034

Introduction

In 2014 an article was written on the basis of STR mutations and the relation to the Iberian Z640 and the Middle-East Z640 group. It appeared that the variability of the Middle-East group was largest, the Iberian was middle size and the Ashkenazi group had a small variability. This resulted in a conclusion that the descendancy went from Middle East, passing Iberia to the Ashkenazi countries.

The timescale of the Ashkenazi group was determined as short, despite of the fairly large size of the group. At the moment only two next generation sequence tests are done in this group with an average of 4.5 unique markers. The tmrca is about 620 years, with an uncertainty of about 300 years. At the moment no person of the two Spanish groups of the article are measured by next generation sequencing.

One person who has his oldest ancestor in Brandenburg, 1758, Germany has a Spanish surname (Pino). Whether he has an Ashkenazi or Sephardic male line ancestor is unknown.

In the most likely scenario (at the moment) a Jewish ancestor went with the Islamic control to Iberia and had several male line descendants. One branch left Iberia in the period 1300-1400 and descendants became part of the Ashkenazi population. In that scenario the other branch (with the Spanish descendants) remained in Spain (and some later to Latin America) and changed at some point to the Catholic religion.

In 2017 Michael Waas and collaborators wrote J-Z640 - a Window into the Levantine Bronze Age. This article confirms the earlier results and adds historic information on the end of the Bronze Age and adds the relation to the branches AB-113 and AB-331. They share a male line ancestor before the start of Judaism.
