Background
This
R1b (xP297) project is designed for people who are R1b1 (that is, who are M343+ and/or P25+)
but who are not R1b1a (that is, who are not P297+ or M73+ or M269+).
At FTDNA, this currently (as of 2012) means that your haplogroup should either predicted or confirmed to be R1b1, R1b1b, or R1b1c.
If you are not sure whether that description fits you, feel free to join. We'll review your DNA results and make a determination.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Origin and History of Haplogroup R1b: Haplogroup R1b originated in the Near East approximately 16,000 years ago. Over the following 10,000 years, the haplogroup subdivided and expanded so that modern descendants are found on every continent. Some sources refer to R1b as a "European" haplogroup, but this reference is out-dated and imprecise: many R1b men do have European ancestry (especially those in subclade R1b1a2) but many others do not.

Because this project conducts primary research, our terminology may not always agree with that used by other sources. The haplogroup tree and map below are used by the project, but may not reflect the official tree currently in use by FTDNA.
