Most male individuals were found to belong to the North African haplogroup E-M183, including the oldest male sample in the collection CAN.010 which was dated to around 1650 years before the present.
In addition to E-M183 which made up 57% of the samples, other haplogroups have been found; T (21%), E-M33* (11%), R1b-M269 (7%) and E-M78 (3%)
Y-DNA haplogroup assignment for the male samples, ranked from oldest to the most recent.
In terms of autosomal ancestry, the Guanches were once again found to cluster close to modern North Africans, with their ancestry being modelled as 73% Late Neolithic Morocco (Kef El-Baroud), 7% Early Neolithic Morocco (Ifri N'Ammar), 13% Germany_Bell Beaker and 6% Mota
Maternal haplogroup distribution among the 49 samples analyzed in this paper. Haplogroup H is in the lead with 39% (Mostly H1 and H4), followed by T2 and U6 with 23% and 22% respectively.
