Abstract
Five Y-chromosome short tandem repeat polymorphisms were studied in Cantabria, a small region in Northern Spain. DNA samples were obtained from male subjects from three different areas: a mostly urban area near the coast, with a mixed population, and two mountain areas that have traditionally had less opportunity for social interaction with neighbouring communities. Statistically significant differences were found in allele and haplotype frequencies between the areas studied, revealing the existence of a population structuration at this microgeographical level.
