Considerably later than the emergence of the R1bhaplogroup in western Europe another lineage arosefrom the M173 line in eastern Europe. This clan is defined by the M17 marker and men that carry this marker belong to haplogroup R1a. The R1a clan took refuge in the area of Ukraine during theLast Glacial Maximum and from there radiated throughout eastern Europe and Scandinavia afterthe last glacial thaw.

Most of the R1a men in the CSUEB group trace their historic roots to eastern Europe where this haplogroup is known to have developed.

Notice the heavy concentrationof R1a men in eastern Europeand their scarcity in France,Spain, and the British Isles.
Although not as numerous as their R1b cousins, the ancestors of R1a men in our museum sample certainly had a significant impact on European civilization. The R1a homeland north of the Black Sea coincides with the area believed by many to have been the origin place of the Indo-European language family, a group of interrelated languages spoken today by more than half of the world’s present population of 6,000,000,000.

The Proto Indo-European (PIE) language arose in the area of Ukraine or southern Russia between 4000 and 3500 B.C. among nomadic peoples believed to have domesticated the horse.

Over the next two millennia mounted warriorsfrom the steppes, many bearing the R1a DNA signature, spread into western Europe, intocentral Asia and as far south as India. Withtheir conquests they brought the powerful technology of the horse and Indo-Europeanlanguages that eventually took the forms of Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, Persian, French, German,,Spanish, English, Portuguese, Russian, etc.
