Nubians do not cluster with Nilo-Saharans. They cluster with Afro-Asiatics

[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] [b]Regardless of whether the troll or any troll is present or not, this thread is an excellent topic for educating folks about the difference between physical populations and language/culture. [/b] Indeed. What the trolls don’t realize is that all their trolling only opens up yet more platforms and opportunities for real data and scholarship to be put out there. If they had left well enough alone, and played fair, the info would have remained buried in obscure academic journals and books. Now it is all over the Net, with a community of active students and analysts commenting and discussing- thus undermining and debunking all the bogus claims they are trying to troll. Same thing with the Wikipedia trolls. By constantly removing valid scholarship, they have only motivated people to start publishing the scholarship far and wide online, on multiple platforms, defeating all the bogus "stealth" edits and "admin" sandbagging by the lamers.. lol. [b] A Review of the Physical Anthropology of the Sahara and Its Prehistoric Implications L. Cabot Briggs Man, Vol. 57, Feb., 1957 (Feb., 1957), pp. 20 The Teda The essentially nomadic and semi-nomadic pastoral bandit Teda have often been supposed to represent the oldest surviving human strain in the Sahara. As far as their outward appearance goes, both metrically and morphologically, they look like half-Hamites, such as the Shilluk and the Dinka, and they speak Sudanic dialects. But their ABO blood-group distributions follow a typically Berber pattern, high in O and very low in B, whereas the Sudanese half-Hamites, as well as Negroes in general , all show high or very high B percentages. Thus the Teda appear to have Berber blood in Negro bodies. One may suppose that the Teda are descendants of a Berber or proto-Berber population that has become progressively negrified by race mixture, or, following Dixon, they are survivors of an ancient'proto-negroid'that mixed with later invaders belonging to his 'Capsian' (my 'African Mediterranean')type. But the real answer can be found only after extensive studies of the distributions among them of blood groups other than those of the ABO series. [/b] ^^A classic reference, with all the conventions of its day, including “half-Hamites” who became “nigrified” and so on lol.. In one of his articles Keita chortles at “Berber blood in Negro bodies”.. lol But yes, they May well form one of the foundational populations of the Nilo-Saharan zone. The Sahara itself is an immensely interesting area- a motor of Africa’s evolution as Kruper or Krolein 2008 show, and also a “Pan African” entity straddling the continent with zones of transition, and shifting peoples and admixtures over the millennia. This complexity undermines assorted BS claims and constructs such as the eternal “true negro” in static “sub Saharan” locales. Some of these constructs including the obsolete “Hamite” variants are alive and well in the bogus propaganda mills of the “alt” web. [/QB][/QUOTE]
