[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Old Doctore: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Perahu: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [qb] My questions on nucleotide sequences of B006 have not been answered, but moving along anyway... What constitutes "Cushitic admixture" and how is it determined so? I see that Hgs M1, R0 and N1a have been named in response to a post suggesting a turn to mtDNA for clues on "back-migration" impact on Maasai gene pool. M1 clade is not a back-migration clade, and if there is specific DNA evidence suggesting otherwise, I'd like to see it. Perhaps a better case for back-migration can be made for clades of hgs R0 and N1a, but even here, the case is not unequivocal; these clades are pretty much scattered across the continent in varying frequencies and in patchy distribution patterns, not to mention that unique variants have been found in eastern Africa. The last time I checked, the Maasai generally live in Kenya; is Kenya in "Northeast Africa"? [/qb][/QUOTE]Haplogroups are a thing of the past, it's a all about genetic clusters. Maasai consistently show Eurasian influence relative to pure Negroids like Nigerians. [/qb][/QUOTE]Then why are you having wet dreams? Since the above quotes are dealing with haplotypes :rolleyes: You probably don't even know how genetic clusters work. They're fragile and could be easily manipulated either way. The Maasai do not have "Caucasian" admixture. They're closer to Western Eurasians in comparison to West Africans, but West Africans on the other hand are closer to Western Eurasians in comparison to pygmies and the Khoisan. Populations work in clines, and since theirs a longer time depth in Africa... the cline is much more evident. According to Tishkoff et al. 2010, the only study of it's kind in regard to Africans the Maasai are for the most part exclusively African. [/QB][/QUOTE]
