U4 distribution map

Here is one of the only U4 Distribution maps Ive found.  If any of you have a better one, shoot me an email. The darker the area, the more U4's there are.

I am of Indian origin (as in South Asian Indian not American Indian) and was amazed to find out that I am in Haplogroup U4. Could this be a mistake?

It's not a mistake it's just that most of the studies seem to have been done by Russians and not so many samples have been taken in India. U4 is an Indo-European haplogroup. It's found at low frequencies in India and Europe. We have two people from India in the haplogroup U4 project at Family Tree DNA:

FTDNA don't currently have that many customers in India.
