[QUOTE]Originally posted by osirion: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Supercar: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by osirion: Like I said earlier, there's evidence of Sub-Saharan genes in English families that must have arrived during the Roman period. I will have to look up that research it has been years since it was published. [/QUOTE]Let's clear the fog: I am aware of "sub-Saharan" lineages in Europe; so there's no need to go there. We were talking about "Ethiopians" [as in the Cushitic and Semitic speaking people who inhabit the modern nation of "Ethiopia"] serving in Roman legions. [/qb][/QUOTE]The Aksumites of Ethiopia used Roman styled coinage and knew how to converse in Greek. Contact between Rome and Aksum was non-punitive but still extensive enough for there to be a small migration of people into Roman controlled territories and subsequently a possible connection to the British Isles. The Moorish explaination may work for Ireland but not for England since the families that have been identified with Sub-Saharan genes can trace their lineage back to 600 BC (this may be inaccurate though).
