		<description><![CDATA[&lt;!--%kramer-ref-pre%--&gt;[...] Quote from: ettycard on Today at 10:08:22 AMIn my testing there is P2+ . This is the first time I have seen this.&#160; Can anyone explain this? Are there others with the same P2+ ? Is this a mutation ?&#160; I am clueless. &quot;Haplogroup E split into E1, E2, and E3 about 28,000 years ago. E3 is characterized by the SNP mutation P2, meaning that people who test positive for P2 (i.e. P2+), then it is extremely likely that they are directly descended from the founder of Haplogroup E3.E3 split into E3a and E3b about 26,000 years ago. E3b is characterized by the SNP mutation M35. From Wikipedia: â€œE3b is believed to have first appeared in the Horn of Africa approximately 26,000 years ago and dispersed to the Middle East during the Upper Paleolithic and Mesolithic periods. From there, it traveled west with the expansion of Neolithic agriculturalists.â€So, therefore, if you belonged to subclade E3b, your Deep SNP test results would be (M96+, P2+, M35+). And E3b splits into even more subclades, meaning that you would have more SNP results.&quot;Taken from:&#160; http://www.thegeneticgenealogist.com/2007/06/20/what-do-the-results-of-a-deep-snp-test-mean/ [...]&lt;!--%kramer-ref-post%--&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For the purposes of explaining SNP tests it&#039;s Ok to simplify things a bit, but the examples employed can lead to a wrong idea.

I wouldn&#039;t exactly say that haplogroup E &quot;split&quot; into E1, E2 and E3.  A SNP is a mutation that happens randomly in a single individual and subsequently passes to all his descendants.  But these three mutations of haplogroup E didn&#039;t happen in a single &quot;split&quot; event.  Thousands of years could have elapsed between the appearance of one mutation and the next.  And all the while the &quot;derived&quot; lineages (with the new SNPs) can coexist with the &quot;ancestral&quot; lineage up to our days.

The same applies to the &quot;split&quot; of E3 into E3a and E3b.  Coincidentally, the E3b branch is several thousand years older than the E3a branch.

Best Wishes!
