Caucasus Y-DNA Timetables

1. Comparison of Georgian and Armenian R* haplogroups

R1b — Armenians 30%, Georgians 20%. Armenians: mixture of PF7562 (Anatolia-Iran — Yamna?) and L23 (Maykop`?), via N.Caucasus and via Iran-Turkey. Georgians: exclusively L23 (via N.Caucasus) and older then Armenian R*. Georgia shows one time expansion of R* and Armenia several waves of immigration-admixture.

In fact you talking about R1b-M269 subclades in Southern Caucasian region (Trancaucasia).

Caucasian referred to Nakh-Daghestan/Abkhaz-Adyghe groups (including Ossetians/Karachay-Balkar/Kumik

BPG, не разглядел грузинский флаг, по ошибке принял за английский

В общем, всё и так поняли о чём я

North Caucasian: Nakh-Daghestan/Abkhaz-Adyghe groups (including Ossetians/Karachay-Balkar/Kumik…

There would be also other timetables with Y-DNA of N.Caucasus populations and Transcaucasus populations

[Farroukh]

But why R1b-M269 only? There were the others too (J1/J2/G2)

2. Several  Waves of Georgia (Caucasus) Y-DNA SNP population

Analyzing waves of Caucasus re-population after LGM (having in mind possible hiatus) using YFull database, for Georgia (Caucasus) specific Y-DNA SNPs. Timetable shows, that there were possible four important waves of re-population and invasions:

● Initial re-population J2a (J-SK1312 KK1) by Caucasian hunter-gatherers (CHG, Kotias Klde) colonists ~10-12K ybp
● G* Anatolian (? South-East European via North Caucasus) hunter-gatherers [herders?] (AHG) ~6-7K ybp
● J2a* Caucasus specific Fertile Crescent farmers SNPs (FCF) ~4-6K ybp and may be contained several sub-invasions — 6K and 4.5K (see table).
●  R* herders invasion is not especially discussed here, as their invasion into Caucasus is better documented.


Previous researches have not mentioned two waves of J2a invasions intermediated by G* invasion.

Initial (CHG) and third (FCF) migrations most probably were via Euphrates — Çoruh corridor.  Second wave of migration (G*) can be a) via North Caucasus (Black Sea shore or Aragvi — Terek corridor), or b) from East Anatolia via Euphrates — Kura-Araxes-Çoruh corridor.   Migration of R* herders most probably was via North Caucasus (Aragvi — Terek corridor) or from the East Caucasus via Caspian Sea shore and then up Kura and Araxes rivers.
