Markers are archaeological find locations. A dashed connector is an uncertain, proposed geographic transition between consecutive branches supported by multiple dated observations; it is not an exact travel route, birthplace or proof of direct descent. Parent-clade samples may belong to other descendant branches. Gaps remain where evidence is insufficient. Sample dates differ from haplogroup formation dates.
Grouping by historical period reflects when each ancient individual lived, combined across every branch on this lineage chain; it is not a migration sequence or a personal timeline between periods.
