Digora, N. Ossetia-Alania, central Caucasus, S. W. Russia. Known to be 74% G. 17 of 24 of the tested men have an unusual 11/28 value for DYS 389. This is quite different from anything found in western Europe, but there are a few cases of this combination in eastern Europe. It is suspected, but not proven, that these men are G2a1. Among the remaining 7 Digora samples, three men are probably U8* cluster persons. The N. Ossetians claim to be remnants of the Alans, but they are genetically different from the groups in western Europe who were also called Alans.

Ardon, N. Ossetia-Alania -- central Caucasus, S. W. Russia. Of the 28 tested men, it is known 21% are G. None are close matches to U8* cluster persons. There are two in the Ardon group who have the 11, 28 (at DYS 389) that predominates in Digora, but the sample size is small, making valid conclusions difficult.

Alagir, Zamankul, Ziga, N. Ossetia-Alania, central Caucasus, S. W. Russia. In a second study by Nasidze, he found 51 additional G samples among 70 total samples. These represented 75%, 61% and 60% respectively of the total men sampled there. These haplotypes are displayed at the Whit Athey G website, but the 51 are several more than would be expected. Did the author add a few? The 11,28 (at DYS 389) is again extremely common at these locations and probably respresents G2a1a persons
