Parsis barely have J1c/J1e, their J1 mostly non-Semitic related(And if it was Semitic related, it's probably related to Assyrians and Akkadians). The number of Levantine Jews in Persia was relatively low(not enough to influence the Zoroastrian majority).For the kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11512190546601297966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4123559132014627431.post-64240891344687130402017-04-19T23:01:54.286-07:002017-04-19T23:01:54.286-07:00Zoroastrians have more J than their Neighbors and ...Zoroastrians have more J than their Neighbors and are some of the only Indians with J1. If you look at their monotheism I think they may be the descendants of the Israelite's in Iran from the time of Esther it makes sense. Some Estimate Zoroastrianism started at 500 bc which would fit this. Of course they lack E1b1b in India which seems to be evidence against this.

East, West, rural/tribal or urban?<br /><br />Also---I think those "Tajiks" are most likely Pamiris, so not Tajiks in the true sense of the word since they 1)don't speak Farsi as primary language and 2)reside in remote mountain villages and have little to do with the urban culture of Central Asia.
