[QUOTE]Originally posted by neo*geo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by homeylu: [b] Do I need to define "preposterous" for you? If I can prove just 1 tribe was there, which I have, this proves blacks were in Canaan.[/b][/QUOTE] If you're only out to prove that blacks lived inCanaan, fine, no one can argue with that but if you're trying to prove the Canaanites were black you better have some damn good sources... [QUOTE]Originally posted by homeylu: [b] Originally posted by S. Mohammad [b]Lemba are maternally African but have significant semitic paternal ancestry the correct observation is that 'semitic' males mixed with Lemba[/b] And those "semitic" males were obviously the Black paternal ancestors of the Buba Clan. Which proves Blacks were in Canaan. (You're slowly catching on) Further excerpts from the study conclude: "The people closest to the Jews from a genetic point of view may be the Kurds, according to results of a new study at the Hebrew University. Scientists who participated in the research said the findings seem to indicate both peoples had common ancestors who lived in the northern half of the fertile crescent, where northern Iraq and Turkey are today. Some of them, it is assumed,[b] wandered south in pre-historic times and settled on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean[/b]. [URL=http://www.haaretzdaily.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=96990]http://www.haaretzdaily.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=96990[/URL] My,my,my, is this not consistent with the Biblical account of Abraham from the land of Ur (Modern Iraq) wondering south to the land of Canaan. Genesis 11:31 And for the record: The Lemba don't have this Iraqi/Turkish admixture, so their ancestors must have ALREADY BEEN IN CANAAN!! [/B][/QUOTE] Your arguments are completely flawed because you're relying too much on inconclusive and non-scientific information. Do you take the Bible literally? I hope not because it's not meant to be taken literally. Many things mentioned in the Bible are inconsistant with archaeology and history. I have a lot of problems with making conclusions based on DNA results. DNA is not a reliable substitute for anthropological evidence. For example, your link above says Jews and Kurds have a common ancestry yet you yourself admit that Jews have mixed with indigenous populations wherever they roamed. Based on this fact, half of the people in the Western world could share a common ancestry with Jews. Due to the fact that Jews have been extremly migrant over the past few millenia and have a pretty diverse cocktail of genotypes and phenotypes, I think it's impossible to trace their origins based on DNA alone.
