R-U152>L2>Z49>S8183>S22778/S20782

Continuation of this old Anthrogenica thread:

In my optimistic intentions, this combined genetic and genealogical map (2024 V3) represents the S22778/S20782 distribution in the mid-1800s (and even a little earlier):



Here is the composition of the relevant S22778/S20782 data set:

Here is a map of all known Z49>Z142 samples dated between 530 BC and ~180 AD.  


As you can see, the midpoint isn't too far from your Z49>S8183>S22778/S20782 midpoint.

I think we both remember from anthrogenica days (and per your map and piechart above) Z49>S8183 tends to be more German, while Z49>Z142 more French.

EDIT: Just looked at FTDNA discover and there are 114 French and 134 German Z49 samples
S8183 is 39 German, 10 French samples, so almost 4 to 1 ratio
Z142 is 76 French and 60 German samples.

Who knows? Early on, maybe the Rhine served as some kind of initial boundary between the S8183 and Z142 predominate clans.
