Haplogroup C1 also known as C-F3393, is a major Y-chromosome haplogroup. It is one of two primary branches of the broader Haplogroup C, the other being C2 (also known as C-M217; the former Haplogroup C3).
The basal paragroup, C1* (C-F3393*), has not been found in samples from living or dead males.
Of the two primary branches, C1b is common in parts of Oceania and Asia. The other primary branch, C1a, is extremely rare worldwide and has been found mainly amongst individuals native to Japan or Europe and among Upper Paleolithic Europeans, with single cases known from Nepal[4] and Jeju Island[5] through academic studies and from an ethnic Armenian, an ethnic Kabyle, and an ethnic Han from Linghai through commercial testing.
