[QUOTE]Originally posted by T. Rex: [QB] [QUOTE]Are there any historical sources supporting massive immigrations during the Greco-Roman and Islamic periods? I was recommended the book Egypt after the Pharaohs by Ausar. If anyone has info to share on that subject it would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]It doesn't necessarily have to be those two periods. I think there was a study by two guys named Berry decades back that found that there was some change in craniofacial morphology during the New Kingdom. This would coincide with increased contact between Egypt and SW Asia; maybe that had a genetic impact? BTW, I am actually a bit bothered by Keita's use of the word "dark-skinned". What precisely does he mean by that? Some people in his audience could consider "brown" populations such as Southwest Asians, Southeast Asians, Polynesians, or Native Americans "dark-skinned" even though most of us here would call them medium-toned instead of dark or black.
