Haplogroup R1a is believed to have originated on the Eurasian Steppes and is now found in western and central Asia, India, and Slavic populations of eastern Europe, but also as far west as Scandinavia and the British Isles.  These are the original "Indo-Europeans" whose cultures and languages were the first to dominate much of Europe; it is the culture that domesticated the horse.  Some argue that only R1a is the true "Viking" haplogroup. Eight members of Danish Demes are R1a; none is closely related to any other.
