This my order:

Are you also testing your Mtdna haplogroup or just Y haplogroup?

Thanks I will check it out. No Im Reer aw Xasan then Reer aw Cilmi but within our clan there is Reer aw Diini.

Ah okay. There aren't many people from your clan who have done Y-Chromosome tests. You might get a rare version of E-Y18629.

Are you also testing your Mtdna haplogroup or just Y haplogroup?

His order is for Big Y. This only tests your Y-Chromosome. However, Dante Labs includes both. Maternal lineages are kind of uninformative for clan history research because every clan has multiple MTs and there isn't really a regional différentiation. The same ones are found all over. Moreover, you most likely will not get any matches on FamilyTreeDNA because only a few Somalis are on there. You can mostly only match against some academic samples from previous studies.

I understand you are right there isn't many of my clan who have done Y chromosome Test

Its taking too long for update, don't know why.

Did you guys see the E-Z21175 positive Somali at Ftdna Somali Project?

[farjanomar]

Btw anyone interested to see my results, my kit# is B679308. I am in both Somali and E-35 Ftdna projects.

Sometimes yfull updates every two months. I think around 10 December they may publish the new tree.

I think the bigger their tree becomes, the longer it will take. Maybe they will qo quarterly next year.

Did you guys notice the E-M35 ftdna project group together that Port Sudan sample with the the Saudi E-BY8100 samples who are all part of the same 7ubaish clan of the Hijaz.

I wonder if the Somali ancestor went to Sudan was assimilated by an Arab or Beja clan first and later some of his descendants went across to the Hijaz or the other possibility is the Somali ancestor arrived in the Hijaz and was assimilated by the Hubaish clan and later a descendant arrived in Sudan lol.

Also one of the three Qatari E-Z813 took the bigY it seems and is currently assigned to E-BY64848 which is a subclade of E-Z820 branch which also has one Somali member.

Edit: There's a new E-BY75676 individual on ftdna too, probably another Habar Awal or possible other Isaaq subclan
