| The Ivanhoe Cluster Project (by Mikhail Rogov) | ||
| The "Ivanhoe" Cluster is a Genetic Genealogy Y-DNA project studying the origin of the subset of people with Jewish (probably Sephardic) ancestry and their non-Jewish genetic matches. This subset is of the SNP known as L47* or as Y-DNA haplogroup R1b1b2a1a1d1* (ISOGG). The name of the project is derived from Sir Walter Scott's novel where British knight Ivanhoe defended Jewish ledy Rebecca. Since R1b is a West-European Y-DNA haplogroup, the Jewish component must have come from a similar gentile-Jewish union. (Y-DNA represents male / paternal lines only.) |

| (From "The Learning Diary of an Israeli Water Engineer", Aug. 11, 2009) Ivanhoe: The Jewish - Viking Gene Cluster As the DNA of more people is analyzed, some unexpected associations are being discovered. The "Ivanhoe" cluster is the symbolical name of MRCA for Jewish R1b1b2a1a1d1* L47+ L44-(~1% of Jewish people ~130 000) and some English and Highland Scottish clans (Clouds, Hadley, Burns and Rattray) cluster. These people are descended from one man who lived in the 10th century. |
