I have tried to find what I can on my Haplogroup online but most of what I have found is rather vague to my understanding. (I am no Geneticist). I have traced my Maternal lineage to a 4th Great Grandmother who was born abt 1799-1803 in Co. Kerry, Ireland, her daughter, my 3rd Great Grandmother, was born in Co. Limerick, married, then came to Boston, MA, USA.<br />I would love to know more about Haplogroup U3. <br />---<br />The comment thread has been 'interesting' to say the least. I don't understand all the related genetic jargon but have been doing my best to follow.LadyAlaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07810864813835953375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-70613333975743433592010-02-20T06:43:31.675+02:002010-02-20T06:43:31.675+02:00"Caucazoid is certainly racist in implication..."Caucazoid is certainly racist in implication"<br /><br />Racialist. Racism is the belief that some races are superior to others, a biologically defined form of xenophobia (hatred of "the other"). Some people can understand that the use of race terminology is convenient for anthropological purposes while not spousing racism of any sort, just as descriptive terms. <br /><br />Of course, many people who insist a lot in "the existence of races" on biological grounds often have some sort of hidden racist beliefs but in itself describing a group of people who are particularly akin to each other in genetic/phenotype terms such as Caucasoid or Mongoloid do not need to be racist in any way. I am totally anti-racist, I am reluctant to use the terms "race" or "subspecies" (I'd rather use "type" or "cluster" instead) but I will use terms such as Caucasoid when I think they are the best descriptive words available.Majuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369840391933337204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-44425453743100010112010-02-19T22:29:02.541+02:002010-02-19T22:29:02.541+02:00Caucazoid is certainly racist in implication.

U3 is present at higher levels among populations in the Caucasus (about 6%) and among Lithuanian Romani, Polish Romani, and Spanish Romani populations (36-56%)</i>.<br /><br />Most likely the Romani U3 is a founder effect that seems to have affected quite markedly all the North/West branch of this European ethnicity (unlike their Balcanic relatives, more diverse). Probably research would show very low diversity in Romani U3 (though I can't confirm this, of course). <br /><br />X2 in turn is known to have also some Central Asian presence, notably in Altai. The existence of some subclades of this haplogroup among Native Americans surely attests that it has been around in Central/Northern Asia for quite a long time. In this case at least, without further downstream information, the presumption that it is "Caucasoid" seems somewhat unwarranted, though admittedly the highest diversity of the clade seems to be in West Eurasia nowadays.Majuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369840391933337204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-91385663805924664652010-01-23T10:08:18.716+02:002010-01-23T10:08:18.716+02:00U3
