A haplotype is a contraction of the words "Haploid Genotype" - is a term in genetics. Specificially, the E3b1 Semitic haplotype refers to the Semitic sub-race of humanity that originated in south-western Asia and a certain base-pair sequence specific to that sub-race. Anyone with these genes has ancestry pointing them in the direction of the middle east at some point in the past and has often been used to identify those who may be part of the "tribe of Israel" - though the genes are not specific to Jews. Similarly people of Native American and Eastern Siberian ancestry tend to register having the 9RA Asian haplotype in their genome.
