[QUOTE]Originally posted by Rigaud: [QB] My ofriginal email to Underhill, I have nothing to hide: hello Dr Underhill, this is Charles Rigaud again. I have a question about the E3b1-M78 clade. I have read that this clade has up to as many as 4 "clusters", exactly how does one define what a cluster is? I would like to know because some have taken the extreme position that since E3b1-M78 originated in East Africa, all E3b1-M78 bearing people have "black African" ancestry since they share s lineage in the same clade, a position that I've argued against[that all E3b1-M78 bearers have "black African ancestry"]. I have seen it been argued that E3b1-M78 alpha is proof of "black African" lineages in Greeks simply because E-M78 traveled north from East Africa and left Africa via the Levant. My position is that E-M78 has undergone much variation and thus not all E-M78 can be considered as "black African", if at all. The problem is some are sying that since the clusters of E-M78 don't constitute a separate clade all E3b1-M78 is closely related which I don't think is true, thus calling E-M78 a "black African" lineage or African Neolithic is inaccurate. I would like to hear your opinion on this Dr. Underhill. Thanks in advance Best Regards, Charles Rigaud [/QB][/QUOTE]
