[QUOTE]Originally posted by Nyasha: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [qb] Nyasha, It all has to do with the haplogroups. The Andaman Islanders have not mingled with the populations of Africa for over some 30,000 years yet they have retained the traits they left the mainland continent with--because the environment they migrated to is similar to that of tropical Africa. But during this time there have been mutations on their chromosomes [b] which specify only that they have not mingled with populations in Africa for a very long time.[/b] So what are they? Well, using the colloquial way of speaking, they are indeed black--based purely on their surface phenotypical traits. This is how people operate in the real world. Immigration officers or policemen don't react to people based on their DNA but based on what they look like. Are they Africans? A case can be made for such: Analogically: An Alsatian/German Shepherd originated in Germany but has been bred in places like China for over 100 years. They are still sold as "Alsatians". [/qb][/QUOTE]Okay, thank you for explaining it to me that way. I am starting to slowly understand now ;) but, just because they haven't mingled with Africans for 30,000 years means they are not Black African genetically?? Now that part I don't understand, what diff does that make?? [/QB][/QUOTE]
