Worldwide nations, regions and populations with highest frequencies of rh negative percentages
We are going to keep updating this post as new information is coming in.
So far, the nations with the highest rh negative frequencies are:
1) Poland
19.67%
19.5%
19%
Reports vary. Some low as 16%. Others 25% and above.
18%
Possibly:
As there is only one official study discrediting a previously assumed lower frequency, more studies are required to verify the new results of around 20% rh negatives.
Territories and regions:
1) Basque Country
The rh negative frequencies in several parts of the Rhone Valley have their "Walser" population at Basque-like percentages.
High in y-DNA R1b. Their famous son:
The Bedouins of the Sinai Peninsula are responsible for a high rh negative frequency in the region. Inbreeding is unfortunately high among them also contributing to a high percentage of hearing impairment.
21.1% rh negatives among women and 19.2% rh negatives among men.
8) Bunschoten-Spakenburg, Netherlands
This Dutch municipality with 20,000 inhabitants houses 25% rh negative people.
Populations:
Guanches of the Canary Islands
Descendants of Basques and Berbers.
Around 28% are rh negative
Populations standing out in comparison to neighbors:
Ainu people of Japan and Russia
Almost 10% are rh negative.
The Uyghurs of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China
Around 4.71% among them are rh negative which towers the Chinese average of less than 1%.
Possibly:
Parts of Atlas Mountain region in Morocco.
As all studies after Messerlin and Lohro (1951) have contradicted their findings of extremely high rh negative frequencies among the Ait Haddidu Berbers, more evidence is required to maintain the claim of theirs.
Ancient populations high in rh negative frequencies:
Said to have been around 40% rh negative, they became the Celts in the West and the Scythians in the East. The famous Amazon women were Scythian. They are ancestors to the Persians and Aryans. Blue eyes and red hair may have originated within their direct ancestry in the same region.
We know their mtDNA and y-DNA make-up, but little about their blood type frequencies. They were invaded by the Proto-Celts 3,000 to 4,000 years ago and their original y-DNA almost completely replaced.
