| Haplogroup K is a relatively old group, derived from Haplogroup R.
Living individuals are widespread in Eurasia, the Near East, and northern
Africa. About 6% of Europeans are Haplogroup K; of these, about 60%
are subclade K1a.
In the trivia department: The oldest known Haplogroup
K individual is Ötzi, the iceman whose frozen body was found in the
Alps in 1991. Katie Couric is also K. |
