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" (Aryans) whose cultures and languages first came to dominate Europe; it is the culture that domesticated the horse.  Some argue that only R1a is the true "Viking" haplogroup.
R1a Haplogroup Subclades as Defined by SNP Mutations
Backbone SNP testing, provided free by Family Tree DNA, shows our R1a member to be R1a1 (M198+ and M17+).  The subclades of R1a1 are rare, and deep SNP testing is usually negative for the downstream SNPs, so most R1a's turn out to be R1a1* (root/ancestral R1a1), but there's no way to be certain without taking the tests.

An asterisk is used to differentiate between someone who has merely tested positive for a key SNP and someone who has not only tested positive for the key SNP, but has also tested negative for any downstream SNPs.  (SNPs in parentheses indicate a redundant marker, tested by some labs, but not FTDNA.)

(SNPs in parentheses are redundant so are not routinely tested by FTDNA.  SRY10831.2 is a back mutation..)

Red labels indicate markers that typically mutate more frequently than those labeled in black. Marker 464 mutates most rapidly of all and sometimes has five to seven counts (a-g), not just four (a-d).
(Empty cells that are darkened indicate tests not ordered.)

On paper, these two individuals descend from the same progenitor, and they match perfectly at 12 markers.  Their haplotype is rare, with no full or near matches in or out of the project at any level, except with each other, making their haplotype unique and easily distinguishable.
As part of its "Haplogroup Assurance" policy, FTDNA has given #61136 free backbone SNP tests.  Results are positive for the M17 and M198 mutations, so while our subjects have only a low resemblance to the modal R1a haplotype, these results confirm they are R1a1.
   

What constitutes a match?
Matches in other surnames are usually mere coincidence, so please ignore them — I'll let you know when you shouldn't!
For 12 markers:  8 or less is a non-relative; 9-10 means only a small chance of a relationship; 11-12 means a possible relationship.
For 25 markers:  20 or less is a non-relative; 21-22 means only a small chance of a relationship; 23-25 means a possible relationship.
For 37 markers:  30 or less is a non-relative; 31-37, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For 67 markers:  55 or less is a non-relative; 58-67, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For any test:  0 matching markers, please contact NASA.
