The Greek Jew in this article belongs to the U5 haplogroup and would never have guessed it:
Not as Greek as I Thought
So I sent off my kit fully expecting to be told my ancestors were from either the middle east or the balkans. As a Greek Jew what else would I expect? Well suprise suprise, I discovered I belong to haplogroup u5, which is concentrated in northeast europe, especially in Finland. I never expected my ancestors to be Scandinavian. It came as quite a shock really. I was born in Greece. So were my parents and their parents and so on.
Surpise, surpise!
