[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] ^ By 'Southern Sahara' they mean the southern part of the modern day Sahara desert itself specifically around northern Niger. By the way, this whole "Mediterranean" thing reminds me... [QUOTE]Originally cited by Charlie Bass: The Cambridge History of Africa (Hardcover) by J. D. Fage (Editor) Cambridge University Press (March 30, 1979) p.69 [i][b]Skeletal remains from the Kenya Rift previously considered as 'Afro-Mediterranean' or 'Caucasoid' have now been shown to group with African Negro samples.[/b] They date within the first millennium BC and, on physical characteristics, it is suggested that they may be of proto-Nilotic stock. But it is necessary to also make comparisons with Cushitic speakers, since burials found recently in association with a Kenya Capsian-like industry from Lake Besaka in the Ethiopian Rift, dating probably to c. 5000 BC, also show negroid features, and linguistic evidence indicates long history for Cushitic in Ethiopia.[/i][/QUOTE]One can't help but think this is the same situation here.
