Lucid comments like the following are surprisingly common (but the clarity predictably breaks down when dealing with indian culture).

Makes some sense. IMO, since northern Indians originate from southern India (this is disregarding recent back & forth) as well as east Asians originate from southern India, the latter two have greater connection. <b>Furthermore, as west Eurasians are a subset of Indians, </b>the north Indians are closer to west Eurasians (again this is disregarding recent back & forth).

I think both N & M mtDNA groups originated in southern India with the former spreading west and the latter spreading east. I am inclined to believe that N originated in south India after looking at U which is the oldest mtdna in Europe. I think it originated in Andhra or nearby. <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I will post more of these....
