[QUOTE]Originally posted by Thought2: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri~: [b] What do you think about the Eastern Libyans (of the Egyptian records) and the Maghrebi Imazighen being related by language but more loosely related as far as geneaology? [/b][/QUOTE] Thought Writes: That seems to be the case based upon the mtDNA evidence. They share a common paternal lineage, but the Maghrebi Imazighen share in a predominantly Western European maternal gene pool. [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri~: [b] Could the Tehenu be the Saharo-Sudanese that Briggs says brought neolithic culture to the coastal Africans? [/b][/QUOTE] Thought Writes: Most definitely. Food production and specifically the herding of domestic Caprines spread from the central Sahara to the Maghreb. [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri~: [b] Something that puzzles me is that the later light complexioned Tamehu first enter the record deep in Nehesu territory well before the arrival of the northeast Mediteranean Sea Peoples who know doubt altered the coastal stock and even filtered into the northern Sahara if we're reading the rock art correctly? And there were myths about the "army of Heracles" and other NW Meds settling the Maghreb. [/b][/QUOTE] Thought Writes: There may have been a prehistoric connection between NW Africa and SW Europe as BB claims. Yet the window for such a diffusion is between ~10 KY (TMRCA of H1 mtDNA lineage) and ~ 6 KY (earliest settled agricultural and megalithic culture in SW Europe). After ~6 KY the two regions have VERY different cultural characteristics. [This message has been edited by Thought2 (edited 21 April 2005).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
