The source is RELIABLY it is the most recent official Phlyogenic tree

When someone on Wikipedia questions the reliability of a source, they mean proven reliability, per our Wikipedia:Reliable sources policy. It may in fact be accurate, but the only way we can tell is having it published by a source that is recognized in some way as being reliable. Check the policy for more info. Just being on somebody's page and claiming to be official isn't enough. Proof is required. DreamGuy (talk) 00:02, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Haplogroup H dominates in Europe, reaching peak concentrations along the Atlantic coast. It is also common in many parts of the Near East and Caucasus Mountains, where the haplogroup can reach levels of 50% in some populations. H originated about 40,000 years ago in the Near East, where favorable climate conditions allowed it to flourish. About 10,000 years later it spread westward all the way to the Atlantic coast and east into central Asia as far as the Altay Mountains.

About 21,000 years ago an intensification of Ice Age conditions blanketed much of Eurasia with mile-thick glaciers and squeezed people into a handful of ice-free refuges in Iberia, Italy, the Balkans and the Caucasus. Several branches of haplogroup H arose during that time, and after the glaciers began receding about 15,000 years ago most of them played a prominent role in the repopulation of the continent.

H1 and H3 expanded dramatically from the Iberian Peninsula, along the Atlantic coast and into central and northern Europe. Other branches, such as H5a and H13a1, expanded from the Near East into southern Europe. After a 1,000-year return to Ice Age conditions about 12,000 years ago, yet another migration carried haplogroup H4 from the Near East northward into Russia and eastern Europe.

Haplogroup H achieved an even wider distribution later one with the spread of agriculture and the rise of organized military campaigns. It is now found throughout Europe and at lower levels in Asia, reaching as far south as Arabia and eastward to the western fringes of Siberia.

Royal Lines- Because it is so common in the general European population, haplogroup H also appears quite frequently in the continent's royal houses. Marie Antoinette, an Austrian Hapsburg who married into the French royal family, inherited the haplogroup from her maternal ancestors. So did Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, whose recorded genealogy traces his female line to Bavaria.

Maternal haplogroups are families of mitochondrial DNA types that all trace back to a single mutation at a specific place and time. By looking at the geographic distribution of mtDNA types, we learn how our ancient female ancestors migrated throughout the world.

Haplogroup: H, a subgroup of R0
Age: more than 40,000 years
Region: Europe, Near East, Central Asia
Example Populations: Basques, Scandinavians
Highlight: Mitochondrial DNA extracted from the remains of St. Luke belonged to haplogroup H.

Famous members :

  • Saint Luke the Evangelist (is one of the Four Evangelists—the four authors of canonical Gospels of Jesus Christ)
  • Napoleon Bonaparte (Emperor of the French 1804 – 1814)
  • Prince Philip (Duke of Edinburgh is the husband of Queen Elizabeth II)
  • Marie Antoinette (Queen of France)
  • Alexandra Feodorovna (Last Empress consort of Russia)
  • Estrid Svendsdatter (Estrith, Astrith,Margrethe: 11th century AD Queen of Denmark)
23andme.com :
H originated in the Near East and then expanded after the peak of the Ice Age into Europe, where it is the most prevalent haplogroup today. 
It is present in about half of the Scandinavian   population and is also common along the continent's Atlantic coast.
