Original Note:

This ancestry, supported by Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA analyses, indicates that Ashkenazi Jews originated from present-day Israel, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine. https://scopeblog.stanford.edu/2013/12/20/new-genetic-study-more-evidence-for-modern-ashkenazi-jews-ancient-hebrew-patrimony/ https://scienceofbiogenetics.com/articles/ashkenazi-dna-tracing-the-genetic-origins-and-legacy-of-ashkenazi-jews https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms3543 https://systemsbiology.columbia.edu/news/study-sheds-light-on-ashkenazi-jewish-genome-and-ancestry https://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgen.1006644
