Deep look into R1a1a

I tried to analyze the currently available STR data for Kurds having the Y-haplogroup R1a1a.
I will focus on these STRs:
DYS393    DYS390    DYS19    DYS391    DYS385a    DYS385b    DYS426    DYS388    DYS439    DYS389i    DYS392    DYS389ii    DYS458    DYS459a    DYS459b    DYS455    DYS454    DYS447    DYS437    DYS448    DYS449    DYS464a    DYS464b    DYS464c    DYS464d    DYS460    Y-GATA-H4    YCAIIa    YCAIIb    DYS456

The ranking is sorted by similarity: (number of equal STRs/number of comparable STRs**) in percentage (%)

**comparable STRs= STRs that got tested by both sides that were compared

Let's start with H1483, he is being tested as Z93+ L342+ (L657-)





In this case the STR results fit with the known SNP results. H1483 is sharing the highest similarity with other people that are Z93+ L342+.


The next individual that I want to compare is 214352, he is being tested as Z283+ M417+ (Z93- Z280- Pk5- P98- M64.2- M56- M458- M434- M334- M157.1- L260- L176.1- L175- Z284-)






Here, the STR results do not fit with the known SNP results. 214352 is sharing a relatively high similarity not only with other people that are Z283+ but also with some that are Z283- and/or are not even R1a. He belongs to the root of Z283+. We already know that his genetic results are special and intriguing.


Besides the two previously described individuals we now have a 3rd individual with R1a1a. He is a Zaza Alevi from Dersim. He is AXYH2. He did not get any SNPs tested, so I have to focus on his STR results.

Let's compare him to others:






The picture is not clear but if I would have to predict his SNPs, I would guess Z93+.



Same exercise as before but this time with 37 STRs:
DYS393    DYS390    DYS19    DYS391    DYS385a    DYS385b    DYS426    DYS388    DYS439    DYS389i    DYS392    DYS389ii    DYS458    DYS459a    DYS459b    DYS455    DYS454    DYS447    DYS437    DYS448    DYS449    DYS464a    DYS464b    DYS464c    DYS464d    DYS460    Y-GATA-H4    YCAIIa    YCAIIb    DYS456    DYS 607    DYS 576    DYS 570    CDY a    CDY b    DYS 442    DYS 438

Let's start with H1483 again, he is being tested as Z93+ L342+ (L657-). Here, I could not compare 37 STRs but only 32 STRs.




Next is 214352, he is being tested as Z283+ M417+ (Z93- Z280- Pk5- P98- M64.2- M56- M458- M434- M334- M157.1- L260- L176.1- L175- Z284-).








Latest R1a1a individual is AXYH2. He did not get any SNPs tested, so I have to focus on his STR results.
