    Notes 
    Haplogroup R-Y16863: The R-Y16863 paternal line was formed when it branched off from the ancestor R-BY1246 and the rest of mankind around 1650 BCE.

    This date is an estimate based on genetic information only. With a 95% probability, the ancestor R-BY1246 was born between the years 2399 and 1040 BCE. The most likely estimate is 1660 BCE, rounded to 1650 BCE. This estimate will likely change in the future as more people test.

    The man who is the most recent common ancestor of this line is estimated to have been born around 950 CE.

    Discrepancy: I have no idea why FamilyTreeDNA (FTDNA) here shows my paternal haplogroup as being R-Y16863, but 23andMe shows my paternal haplgroup as being R-L51.
