Background

Haplogroup V is a branch on the maternal tree of human kind. It is a child of haplogroup HV0a. It was likely born around 9,800 years ago. (Behar et al., 2012b)

Origin

MtDNA haplogroup V was likely born in West Asia. It may also have been born in Europe.

Age

Behar et al., 2012b placed the birth of the V lineage between 8,400 and 11,100 years ago. This means the line was born in the Mesolithic or the Neolithic. At the time, people were using highly refined stone tools. They were just starting to adopt farming culture.

mtDNA Haplogroup V Phylotree History

Phylotree.org is the maternal (mtDNA) tree of humanity. It is maintained by Dr. Mannis Van Oven. Each build is a major update to the tree. The current build is #17.

mtDNA Haplogroup V Data Sources

GenBank Samples

GenBank is a database of genetic sequence data. It is run by the United States National Institute of Health. It serves as the main repository for mtDNA full sequence profiles. Samples come both from published academic literature and donations from genetic genealogy community members. In addition to GenBank samples, listings below may include other samples published but not submitted to GenBank such as those from the HapMap project.

Note: GenBank results currently use Phylotree build 16. I am working on changing resuts over to build 17.

Geno 2.0 Data

Data from Geno 2.0 is derived from the The National Geographic Society’s Genographic Project — the DAR. The Hg ID is specific to this site and is used to protect the identities of those who take part in Genographic research. Birth Country, Mother's Birth Country, and Maternal Grandmother's Birth Country have been normalized from DAR database fields. The Maternal Origin is determined based on the three previous fields.

Note: Geno 2.0 results currently use Phylotree build 16. I am working on changing resuts over to build 17.

If you use the information in this table, please credit both this site and The National Geographic Society’s Genographic Project.
