A haplogroup is the term used to
define one's deep ancestral origins that may pinpoint to a particular
region in the world. Coordinating results by haplogroup may:
- Reveal a common ancestor between men of
different surnames
- Indicate deep ancestral origins from a
common "founder" ancestor. (See: "Founder
Scots DNA")
- May indicate a particular region of
Europe that your Scottish ancestors originated from. Additional
information on haplogroup origins is included below.

| Haplogroup R1a - The
R1a lineage is believed to have originated in the Eurasian Steppes north
of the Black & Caspian Seas. This lineage is thought to descend from a
population of the Kurgan culture, known for the domestication of the horse
(circa 3000 B.C.E.). These people were also believed to be the first
speakers of the Indo-European language group. This lineage is found in
central & western Asia, India, and in Slavic populations of Europe.1
Haplogroup R1a also appears in Scotland, and is the haplogroup of the
great Gaelic warrior, Somerled.

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.
