Some authors seem to associate Oyirad ethnogenetic processes with the Naimans. But I couldn't find out in which ways exactly Naimans could have become Oyirads...



Preliminary summary: since people who call themselves "Naimans" seem to be very wide-spread, they might include more than just a few lineages which are very different from each other. Apparently, one major Naiman lineage belongs to y hg O-M134+, M117-. And so far, it seems as if the Hazara Naimans rather belong to N-M178+. And, as the Gorno-Altaisk sample of Kharkov et al. 2007 indicates, the Maimalars, possibly Naiman descendants among the northern Altai kizhi, could predominately belong to a third y hg.

There are, thus, two potential major Naiman y hgs which can possibly be associated with founder effects in certain Mongols with N-M46 being very common in Khoshuuds (37% of 82 men according to Malyarchuk et al. 2013) and O3-M134+, M117- possibly being relatively among southeastern Mongols though there is so far no good evidence for any according founder effect in the latter.

A certain number of potentially relevant haplotypes was already published. But I won't check them. Do that on your own if you don't want to wait for the publications of professional researchers.
