Origin of I2

The Wikipedia page of mtdna haplogroup I2 clearly states: "Possible place of origin Insufficient Data". And yet the page about Egyptian DNA page states that haplogroup I2's origin is "believed to have originated in Western Asia.[7]". So which is it: insufficient data or Western Asia? 83.84.100.133 (talk) 21:36, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
