I've developed a mild interest in East-West phylogeography in Europe in regards to human populations. In the process I stumbled onto this paper, Geographical heterogeneity of Y-chromosomal lineages in Norway. I've put the full PDF in the forum, here. Standard caveat, take this with a grain of salt!!! But, I've put some maps below that readers might find of interest.
