Haplogroup E1b - This haplogroup is believed to have evolved in the Middle East. It expanded into the Mediterranean during the Pleistocene Neolithic expansion. It is currently distributed around the Mediterranean, southern Europe, and in north and east Africa.¹It's speculated that E1b may have arrived in Scotland with Roman auxiliaries or Neolithic farmers who had come into Britain.²

The Scotland DNA Project is an independent genealogical research study that is not affiliated with a university. The study receives no grant underwriting, and participants are responsible for the costs of their own tests.

The project was organized as a cooperative effort among family historians who wish to explore genetic testing to advance their knowledge of deep and recent family backgrounds.
