[QUOTE]Originally posted by Calabooz: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [qb] I was not arguing there was no genetic connection. I am an advocate for most modern Egyptians share a genetic connection but donot have the phenotype of the ancient Egyptians. I really wish that more published research was done on this subject. Other regions like Lebanon have proven through genetics there may be continuity between modern Muslim and Christian Lebanese. No such studies have been done on Egyptians besides a cryptic SCA genetic study on the remains near the Giza pyramid. [/qb][/QUOTE]My argument on this thread is that there is a connection, but due to significant admixture they probably aren't the best representative of their ancestors. As opposed to Mike111 who implied Egypt is similar to America. Did you see the dendrograms I scanned onto FaceBook from Berry Kemp's book: "Ancient Egypt: Anatomy of a civilization"? He mentions that the Late Dynasty Giza cemetary was immigrant or they showed a growing resemblence to European populations due to admixture. I would think the latter scenario is more likely.
