G-Z6488

[Villanovan]

I’m from southern calabria, my male lineage is from the grecophone area, I have genealogy since the first half of 17 century and the surname is attested in the area since the Middle ages. My haplogroup seems to have a sardinian or italian distribution. If it is sardinian that would be quite strange, if is not very ancient it could have come here in roman era or late antiquity, when both calabria and sardinia were bizantine, I doubt it is more recent. Haplogroup G is not that rare in Calabria but is difficult to understand what type of subclades are involved. Some are likely caucasian or levantine but it seems is not my case. There is someone who has any clues about the origin of my subclade?

Hello, given that you're negative for L166 the most likely scenario is that you belong to the Neolithic Sardinian branch https://discover.familytreedna.com/y-dna/G-PF3230/tree

This doesn't mean that the branch stayed in Sardinia forever, in fact we know that some Punic and Roman people carried Sardinian ancestry, for example.

It's not 100% sure you belong to that branch, theoretically you could belong in some undiscovered basal branch of PF3239. You won't know until you test deeper by doing FTDNA Big Y or a WGS test.
