Male Y- haplogroups IVC cline samples

R - one samples
J2 - two samples
H1 - two samples

another interesting sample was retrieved from a site called Darra-e-kur which is very close to Indus Valley and only separated by mountains. see pic1

R1b1 haplogroup is found in that sample. see pic2 ImageImage

this is also the ancestry found as major component in the Harappan & IVC cline samples.
