have to do is show that Exiles are probably there within a given population (that is: not impossible that they are there) and that the CMH confirms what we find from parallel sources.

Here is what the scientists (who discovered the CMH tool) said about our task:

"For highly polymorphic, single-locus systems, the identification of haplotypes with restricted distributions may provide 'signatures' of ancient connections that have been partially obscured by subsequent mixing with other populations. Gene flow from the Cohanim

could account for the presence of the Cohen modal haplotype in both Ashkenazic and Sephardic Israelites, or it could be a signature of the ancient Hebrew population. The Cohen modal haplotype may therefore be useful for testing hypotheses regarding the relationship between specific contemporary communities and the ancient Hebrew population."

(from the second scientific paper listed in section III.c. "References")

The key phrase here for us (and for our task) is:
