I guess it reflects the U (mainly U5) minority status, around 10% in western Europe, apart from the Saami where U5 is 48%, 20% in Finland. U2 peaks at 20% in northern Indians, and U6 (or U?) peaks at 28% in the Mozabites of Algeria. So given it is probably rare to know celebrity haplogroups in the first place, it is not really surprising that we don't know the ones that are U (yet):biggrin1:. Cheddar Man will have to do for now....

It could be you one day, you never know.

Think about it. Probably the best people are the ones you've never heard of.

And the smartest thing anyone ever said was to remain silent.
