My maternal haplotype comes directly from Cheddar Man.

Mitochondrial DNA is passed from mothers to their children, never from fathers. So you may have the same mitochondrial DNA type as Cheddar Man, but you could not have inherited it directly from him, because he could not have passed it on to any of his children.
