[QUOTE]Originally posted by Evil Euro: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by [b]Charlie_Bass[/b]: There were no 'Eurasian-like' indigenous East Africans[/QUOTE] Well, if you don't like either explanation, then the onus is on you to provide an alternative theory to account for Brace's plot. If Somalis are neither mixed with Eurasians nor descended from Eurasian-like East Africans, then how do you explain their cranial alignment near Eurasian groups? [QUOTE]Dr. Brace clearly states that Somalis, Horn of Africans and Upper Nile valley peoples acquired their traits through adaptation, not hybridisation with anyone.[/QUOTE] And I fully agree with him. The Eurasian-like "elongated" morphology is indigenous to East Africa. But it isn't the only racial element present in modern East Africans. [QUOTE]Unless you and Dienekes can prove that intruding 'Negroid' females only but no males invaded East Africa[/QUOTE] That has already been proven: [i]"This suggests that male-mediated gene flow from Niger-Congo speakers to the Ethiopian population was probably very limited ... Caucasoid gene flow into the Ethiopian gene pool occurred predominantly through males. Conversely, [b]the Niger-Congo contribution to the Ethiopian population occurred mainly through females[/b]."[/i] (Passarino et al. 1998) [/QB][/QUOTE]
