This is actually common sense and really to understand. The problem is White Nord et al. can't come to grips with the fact that Africans have a diverse range of features based on their adaption to the enviroment. Its funny because Im sure white nord once claimed the Nubians were racially segregated and were the reason Egypt fell etc. back when stormfront released their propaganda, now suddenly he will claim the Nubians are not blacks when they group so strongly with the Egyptians..

how sad.

"Anthro don't expect any real answer to your question as to why ancient Nubians and Egyptians group away from sub saharan Africans and with West Eurasians. The Afro dumbasses know that Hanniharas studies and ricaut are damning pieces of evidence when concerning their occult following of black egypt. They'll just point to Nubians as a model for "blackness" and just ignore who they themselves cluster with."

Well, somatic variation is clinal, and so, if people from the Levant look a certain way (relatively narrower noses/faces, wavy hair), we should expect long term residents of Northeastern Africa to have an appearance that is in agreement with that cline, and differ in many ways from Africans who reside on the other (Southern) end of that geographical spectrum.

In other words, if somatic appearance is in large a function of environment (and it clearly is), it would be absurd to believe that West Asians in the Sinai and the Levant would evolve those features on their own, but indigenous Africans immediately to the West of the Sinai would not evolve those features on their own.


Indeed.

Fools say, well, if Ancient Egyptians were Africans, why are there few Equatorial Bantu speakers and Equatorial West Africans, who match their variations? They ask, why do we only find near-exact matches with Africans, who would've have been susceptible to gene-flow from West Asia?

Well duh:

^Unreasonable question. It would have been a valid one if the interior of Equatorial Africa had large stretches of land with climates similar to those seen in the Nile Valley, Horn and Sahara. Truth is, there are few to none Equatorial West African and South African regions that match the Nile Valley, Sahara and Horn of Africa in climate, where the ancestors of extant African groups have resided as long as their Northeastern counterparts in the Nile Valley, Horn and Sahara.
