Outdated coon gibberish..... Believing this is like believing that the world is flat. Nothing evolved out of Europe, except a few modifications to already existing phenotypes.The quicker you accept the fact that Africans/black/negro are the centre and root of the modern human family the better off your life will be. You will soon start to think logically.

Its really sad, not particularly shocking that Evil Euro has to post refuted, outdated Coon gibberish to find a way to put "Caucasoids" in East Africa. Aurignacian refers exclusively to the beginning of the Upper Paleolithic in Europe and the earliest physical remains associated with it[Grimaldi Man] don't even resemble white men. And since when are Neanderthal-Hybrids[refuted by genetics] white men? Evil Euro lost all credibility with that post.

The only thing "outdated" about Coon are some of his theories, which have been disproven. But that goes for all of the old anthropologists, including the Afronut favorites. Coon's observational data is as valid today as it was when he compiled it. He looked at skeletal remains from Pleistocene East Africa, and saw that they were Caucasoid. Nothing speculative about that. Just a cold, hard fact.

Africans, yes. Blacks/Negroes, no. They're an insignificant branch of the human family whose ancestors took a wrong turn in Africa and never got back on track.

You have been discredited with that statement.

The fact that no anthropologist today believes Pleistocene East Africans were Caucasoids proves that Coon's data is outdated. Coon also looked at Neanderthal-Hybrids(?) and saw white men, to that you say he was wrong but to "Aurignacian East African Caucasoids" you have no problem saying he's right, its simply pointless arguing with a racist idiot who cites selected outdated material to prove what cannot be proven.

1Carleton Coon represents an interesting figure in this watershed between pre- and post-neo-Darwinism in that, although his
major works were published in the 1950s and 1960s (Coon, 1962), his framework for considering evolutionary diversity in humans
was essentially that of the prewar anthropologists.

Correct. And of course Coon's discredited polygenic views are directly related to his fabrication of 'caucazoids', the most descredited concept in the history of anthropology.

The whole point of polygenesis was to establish a 'scientific' basis for white priorty, which increasingly flew in the face of the facts as fossil find after fossil find indicated African and Africoid anteriority.

Carelton Coon caucasoid polygenesis is

NULL......

Stephen Jay Gould:
How could a new species evolve in lockstep parallelism from three ancestral populations spread over more than half the globe? Three groups, each moving in the same direction, and all still able to interbreed and constitute a single species after more than a million years of change? (I know that multiregionalists posit limited gene flow to Circumvent this problem, but can such a claim represent more than necessary special pleading in the face of a disabling theoretical difficulty? - Stephen Jay Gould.

and VOID.....

SOY Keita:
fosils indicate the presence of anatomical modern people in supra-Saharan and Nile Valley Africa at a time when hominids in Europe had Neanderthal morphology

Citing Carleton Coon is like citing Piltdown Man as proof of the English origins of homo-sapiens. It's a confession of defeat, poorly disguised as a stubborn 'argument'.

Just curious, but are you guys just doing this out of boredom? For Godsakes, the guy claims that blacks represent an "insignificant" branch of the human family, even though they are the people that never left Africa, where humankind originated! He insists that there were prehistoric "whites" in Africa!

What is the purpose of arguing with him? It seems the man can't accept facts, plain and simple! You've refuted, debunked, and dismissed this fool over and over again, but he is too ridiculously stubborn to accept reality! Let the guy believe that the original peoples of Africa were "mediterranean caucasoids" and get back to Egypt!! LMAO

Needless to say that you are right, as usual, in respect to Evil. Earlier, you said that Evil lost credibility...did he have one to begin with?

Let's do a quick recap here:

Evil was given every chance to make a case...but it appears that he never had one.

The point is not to persuade EuroDisney to come to his senses, but rather to expose fallacious thinking, and to share more up-to-date and accurate information regarding bioanthropology.

You could learn a lot in these threads from SOY Kieta, PA Underhill and many others if you are patient and of keen mind.

Too many African scholars and students alike, I have found - will repeat the fallacious outdated terminology/conceptions of Eurocentric anthropology without really understanding what they ARE PLAYING INTO.

It is they whom I am communicating with.

EuroDisney is just a troll-muse. A means to and end as it were. And his racist remarks simply expose his frustration level, and do not bother me (same with Horemheb).

Indeed, I personally find it less entertaining and more pointless to play with Abobo or Horemheb, because frankly it takes two to tango, and in those cases there is nobody home. Some prefer arguing with Abobo I guess because they recognize that he can't fight back? All he can do is cut and paste spam, like a retarded child. You prefer to 'debate' with him? Too each his own.

You are right, which is why I've given up on Abobo!

I totally understand now. So by all means, carry on!!

Let's do a quick recap here:


quote:

SOY Keita
Arethusa
26 (1993) pg 329:

"I was a student of Larry Angel and am in some postion to comment on his views, which I know from conversation, the literature and personal correspondnce."

"Angel also found evidence for a "black" (if such exists) genetic influence in neolithic and later Aegean populations. Racialists models, which imply non-overlapping gene pools, are clearly negated by Angel's work."

  • He claims that HBS in Sicilian populations has nothing to do with its spread from Africa, but the presence of the Benin Sickle cell belies his claim.

    In fact, the mere presence of E3b shatters his entire premises, which is why he needs to have different but contradictory explanations for its non-tropical African origins!


  • Additional notes, that don't make Evil look good:

    African Exodus

    Chris Stringer and Robin McKie:

    "Nor does the picture get any clearer when we move on to the Cro-Magnons, the presumed ancestors of modern Europeans. Some looked more like present-day Australians or Africans, judged by OBJECTIVE anatomical categorizations, as is the case with some early modern skulls from the Upper Cave at Zhoukoudian in China."


    From the Am J Phys Anthropol. 1975 May;42(3):351-69, we have...

    New studies of post-Pleistocene human skeletal remains from the Rift Valley, Kenya.

    Rightmire GP.

    "Prehistoric human crania from Bromhead's Site, Willey's Kopje, Makalia Burial Site, Nakuru, and other localities in the Eastern Rift Valley of Kenya are reassessed using measurements and a multivariate statistical approach. Materials available for comparison include series of Bushman and Hottentot crania. South and East African Negroes, and Egyptians. Up to 34 cranial measurements taken on these series are utilized to construct three multiple discriminant frameworks, each of which can assign modern individuals to a correct group with considerable accuracy. When the prehistoric crania are classified with the help of these discriminants, results indicate that several of the skulls are best grouped with modern Negroes. This is especially clear in the case of individuals from Bromhead's Site, Willey's Kopje, and Nakuru, and the evidence hardly suggests post-Pleistocene domination of the Rift and surrounding territory by "Mediterranean" Caucasoids, as has been claimed.

    Recent linguistic and archaeological findings are also reviewed, and these seem to support application of the term Nilotic Negro to the early Rift populations."

    Evil was given every chance to make a case...but it appears that he never had one.

    I've already answered most of that, but it's all irrelevant until you can answer this.

    What's taking so long?

    The classification into races has proved to be a futile exercise. - Sforza

    Your two months of fruitless-floundering exemplify the above and expose you, as the laughably impotent idiot troll that you are.

    So just continue to wallow.....

    ...in your own pooh.

    Sforza can't save you, no one can.
