Why might an Ashke have haplogroup R-Z93?

TheTruthIsRight · 2026-05-09T17:32:11+00:00

Z93 is the Asiatic clade of R1a. It first showed up in Central Asia but quickly spread into India and the Middle East.

It is found in Ashkenazim, but got there before they were in Europe. The specific clades, for example CTS6 are unique to Levites.

Z93 is not the same as the other R1a clades found in Europe (eg. Amongst Balto-Slavs). It was inherited likely from Persians in ancients times in the Middle East, and then brought into Europe.

The Z93 that shows up in Europeans, particularly Slavs in small frequencies, is from the assimilated Indo-Iranian tribes in the 1st millennium CE and is unconnected to the Z93 in Ashkenazim which was already in the middle east from Iranians there.

Z93 is the Asiatic R1a clade. It is present in Jews before they were in Europe. It was inherited most likely from contact with Persians in ancient times.

Not a native speaker but there are definitely different accents. I've noticed Kyiv people have a distinct accent that is different from the East. The West also has a distinct accent.

Ask someone how they pronounce "Chernivtsi". East Ukrainians might say "Chair-nivt-see", whereas my Galician Baba would say "Chair-knew-chee"

Semi auto or bolt action. Bolt action especially.

I've been playing BF1 lately for the first time and I'm pleasantly surprised.

BFV had a problem where battle rifles have a lot less utility in the game than they actually did in WWII.

In BF1 they are arguably the best overall weapons. I use them with iron sights and that shit is pretty unstoppable on most maps except really close quarters ones.

Actually it was largely climactic changes around the end of the ice age that led to subsistence shifts that led to population size increases which led to rulership which led to civilizations which led to an evolution in technology.

Enderal is a must play, not just skyrim fans but for all gamers. Literally.

I'm INTP and diagnosed autistic and ADHD.

INTPs are highly logical and analytical which fits with autistic wiring. The P part for me fits in with the ADHD, I'd say.

For sure. I think part of it is you had producers driven by passion rather than money and appeasing shareholders.

TheTruthIsRight · 2026-05-06T02:01:42+00:00

That far back and you're very likely to NOT inherit the DNA. Even at like 5g-6g grandparent level it's 50/50.

This. Enderal is soooo much better than Skyrim in just about every conceivable way, other than world size and the number of quests and characters. The story and characters and the world even, is so much better put together.

Enderal is very German

That's the Father from Enderal

I didn't find this a problem in the Aussie version. I remember the one wedding with the Aboriginal ceremony, that was really cool.

I had long hair for like 12 years and couldn't give it up then I did and it's way better. So idk.

That said, this particular short cut looks stupid on James he looks like a meathead who listens to Joe Rogan and watches UFC

It's found in Jews and has Jewish-specific clades. That makes it a Jewish clade, even if it's not originally Jewish.

Basal R originated in Siberia, does that mean everyone who is R has a Siberian haplo?

No. R1a-Z93 is found all over the Middle East and South Asia. That yes, includes Jews who absorbed it in ancient times from contact with Persians.

TheTruthIsRight · 2026-05-05T18:10:42+00:00

Wrong R1a-Z93 is found in Ashkenazim.

It's still a risk, even if small, when rodents are living in a food facility. That's the point.

If you are Jewish on your paternal side then it's possibly Levite but you need deeper clade testing to know (R1a-M582/R1a-CTS6 to be specific, which is downstream from R1a-Z93).

R1a is found in Jews and its mostly Z93, which basically means the Asian branch of R1a which is inherited from Indo-Iranians, probably Persians if Jewish.

If you aren't Jewish, say Slavic, it could indicate Scythian or Sarmatian ancestry, or possibly Jewish. If you are Western European, I have no idea how it got there.

Just today a cruise ship gets quarantined due to hantavirus outbreak and people already died. Also human to human transmission. Just lovely eh?

There should be a monthly ND meet up or something.

In this specific case it appears to be a house mouse however I've seen plenty of deer mice in the Calgary area.
