[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: The first people to dominate the area were the Sumerians. [/QUOTE]Would depend on time frame. For instance, who was dominant in the area during the "Natufian" inhabitation there? [/QUOTE]The founders of civilization in South West Asia [b]were the Anu people, archaeologists call Natufians[/b].[/QUOTE]You know this because...? [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: In Palestine the Natufians established intensive grass collection. The Natufians used the Ibero-Maurusian tool industry (see F. Wendorf, The History of Nubia, Dallas,1968, pp.941-46).[/QUOTE]What do you think of as "Ibero-Maurusian"? Why that designation, when we are dealing with new microlithic tools originating in mainland Africa and transferred into the Levant via the Nile Valley? [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: I believe that the Natufians given the craniometric evidence for this group probably were San and/or Khoisan . [/QUOTE]What cranio-metric evidence has led you to that conclusion? [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: Up to today many Khoisan people live in East Africa, the origination point for the Natufian people. I would guess that the Natufians spoke a Khoisan language.[/QUOTE]No Khoisan language is known to occur in the "Near East", but Afrasan languages do predominate in that region from the Levant downwards. What markers linguitics-wise and genetics-wise, would help us learn about this close Natufian-Khoisan linkage you speak of? [/QB][/QUOTE]
