Significance of DNA Findings in the Lichtenstein Cave
with Brit-Am Reply and DNA Explained
From: GTHEISS777@aol.com
Yair, what are your thoughts on the recent male line Y-DNA studies by Mike
Hammer and others?
The 2008 Y-DNA Haplotree at Family Tree DNA shows the J Haplogroup (found with
high frequency in Jewish males) as most closely related to the I Haplogroup
(found with high frequency in Scandinavian (Subclade I1) and Saxon (Subclade
I2b) males.
The I Haplogroup is a minority Haplogroup (about 15% of European males). The J
Haplogroup is also a minority Haplogroup in Europe (about 12% of European
males).
The skeletal remains of an extended family found buried together in the
Lichtenstein Cave (near Dorst in Lower Saxony) came up mostly I2b for the 19
males tested.
What astounded the archaeologists, was that these ancient pagans were burying
their family dead in caves (much like the Jews, I might add) and not cremating
them.
The remains were dated for about 3,000 years ago, though the dates often have a
wide range of error.

Brit-Am Reply and DNA Explained:
It is true that J is predominant amongst Jews and J2 is considered the basic
Jewish Y(Male)
haplogroup or rather those Jews who have J2 are considered as most likely to
represent the core
element of the Jewish People even though J2 is also found in numerous other
populations.
Haplogroup I is similar to J and the distinction between the two may even be
considered an artificial one.
I is found in Scandinavia especially Sweden and in smaller percentages also in
Germany and England.
I is also found in the Balkans especially Croatia and is PREDOMINANT in
Sardinia.
We more or less are following all of these developments.
The fact is that our reservations about DNA still hold:
YDNA Reversed
Were R1 and N The Forefathers?

"All observed mutations cause a loss of DNA information"
The Brit-Am Position is that:
If DNA is true then our own understanding will be confirmed.
R (mainly Europeans) or N (Finland, Russia, Siberia) probably represent
Primordial
Man since their DNA Trees are the most complicated.
All other Y Haplgroups may be considered as simplifications of R or N (that
themselves are not so different
from each other).
When viewed this way we do not need a progressive evolution downwards.
Changes can occur by "jumping".
For example a relatively minor loss in R would give us Q (Amerindians and some
Asians).
A much greater loss in R would give us J.
If the principle of "loss" is accepted there is no reason why the "losses" once
they begin to occur at determinative moments have to be greater or lesser.
