[QUOTE]Originally posted by Faheemdunkers: [QB] "[T]he modern Hamite Ethiopian series (Tigre) and even Somali-Galla [b]remain virtually exempt of any black contribution.[/b] The Ethiopian plateaus must therefore have remained far from the currents of black immigration" (Billy, 1977) Tigray have the lowest nasal indices, typically in the leptorrhine range. Oromo have a different deviation range and mean. Their lowest NI's are mesorrhine, or borderline -- while their average is 76. Thin noses among the Oromo are confined to the minority aristocracy class, who like the Tigray are mostly exempt from Negroid admixture. They have seperate racial origins. Coon (1939) discusses the class divisions among the Oromo, its clear when he is describing the [i]Hamitic[/i] (Mediterranean) average (69) he is not meaning the other classes who all data shows are mesorrhine-platyrrhine, nowhere near thin nosed. As far as the data goes, true leptorrhine indices are only observed in the Tigray region which was mostly free historically from Negroid admixture, while only occurring among a few individuals outside that region, which is noticable when you take the Hamitic caste system into account.
