I co ty na to Jeshula
Brahmin is the class of educators, law makers, scholars and preachers in HinduismIt is said to occupy the first position among the four varnas of Hinduism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahmin R1a1 West bengal Brahmins 72,22 % Uttar Pradesh Brahmins 67,74% Polska 50% Haplogroup R1a1 is associated with the spread of the Indo-European speakers in India. In South Asia, in the eastern and northern parts of India, for example among the West Bengal Brahmins, 72%, and Uttar Pradesh Brahmins, 67% of male lineages have been observed in this lineage. In the western extreme of the central range of R1a, around 50% of male lines amongst Sorbs, Poles, Belarusians, Hungarians and Ukrainians have consistently proven to be R1a positive in various surveys, with slightly lower frequencies being found in mainland Croatia, Slovenia and amongst Greek Macedonians. Some earlier studies came to the conclusion that R1a may have arisen 15,000 years ago in the vicinity of Ukraine, possibly expanding from either the Ukrainian LGM refuge following the end of the last ice age, or from the Pontic-Caspian steppe as a result of the hypothetical Kurgan migrations theory. However, some newer studies show that R1a lineages may have their origins in North India. Oxford University geneticist Stephen Oppenheimer has come to the conclusion through his genetic findings that "South Asia is logically the ultimate origin of M17 and his ancestors", and that "one estimate for the age of this line in India is as much as 36,000 years old" |
