[QUOTE]Originally posted by Evergreen: [QB] Evergreen Writes: Here is an actual peer-reviewed study on Plistocene North Africans. Evergreen Posts: The Journal of North African Studies, Vol.10, No.3–4 (September–December 2005) The Climate-Environment-Society Nexus in Sahara from Prehistoric Times to the Present NICK BROOKS, ISABELLE CHIAPELLO, SAVINO LERNIA, NICK DRAKE, MICHEL LEGRAND, MOULIN AND JOSEPH “It is worth noting that the scant palaeo-anthropological evidence (from Uan and Uan Muhuggiag in the central Sahara of Libya) points to sub-Saharan affinities. This fits with more recent human remains from the Egyptian oasis, which indicate similar affinity on the basis of dental analysis. These findings support the of a northwards movement of human populations as they followed the monsoon rains, which strengthened and penetrated further north into the Sahara at the beginning the Holocene. The gap between the beginning of the humid period in the after the last glacial maximum (ca. 15–13 ka) and the appearance of the Holocene occupation sites might be interpreted as a consequence of the time for vegetation and fauna to recolonise hyperarid environments. More cautiously, the first genetic data on Saharan palaeo-populations also a sub-Saharan affinity. Evidence for a southern provenance of the first Saharans might also be seen in from rock art, although the subjective nature of interpretations must be recognised: in the and Acacus depictions figures with what appear to be black African features have been interpreted indicating the possible presence of populations originating in sub-Saharan regions.” [/QB][/QUOTE]
