From 2002 to 2008, it was known as Haplogroup K2 . It should not be confused with the Haplogroup T mtDNA mitochondrial DNA haplogroup T , of the same name. The Unique event polymorphism UEP which defines this clade is generally considered to be the single nucleotide polymorphism SNP , M70. Other SNPs, M184, M193, M272, are currently considered to be phylogenetically equivalent. Origins Quotation K2 M70 is believed to have originated in Asia after the emergence of the K M9 polymorphism 45 30 ky Underhill et al. 2001 a . As deduced from the collective data Underhill et al. 2000 Cruciani et al. 2002 Semino et al. 2002 present study , K2 M70 individuals, at some later point, proceeded south to Africa. While these chromosomes are seen in relatively high frequencies in Egypt, Oman, Tanzania, Ethiopia, they are especially prominent in the Fula people Fulbe 18 Scozzari et al. 1997, 1999 J. R.
