[QUOTE]Originally posted by Thought2: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Evil Euro: [b] Having dark hair and eyes does not make one "phenotypically similar to sub-Saharan Africans" because those features are shared by people all over the globe, including in Sweden and Ireland. However, the craniofacial traits that Somalis possess make them phenotypically similar to Caucasoids and only to Caucasoids, not every other race on earth. [/b][/QUOTE] 1) Of course these Black African derived features are "shared by people all over the globe". People all over the globe descend from a small group of Paleolithic Black Africans. Hence certain phenotypic features such as dark skin and hair spread out of Africa with humans. As humans adapted to new environments they adapted new and unique phenotypes. We see this with the light hair and eyes of **TRUE** Europeans. Greeks lack these true European features because they lack the true European bloodlines defined by haplogroup I and R1b. 2) Cranio-facial make-up represents a sub-set of overall phenotype, which includes eye and hair color. Cranio-facial morphology does not represent phenotype in totality. Limb elongation and skin color ALSO represent phenotype. Somalis have limb elongation and dark skin like other Africans, hence they share in a common phenotype with other Africans. Somalis ALSO share in the Sub-Saharan bloodline defined as the PN2 Y-Chromosome. 3) Some West Africans such as Fulanis and Tuaregs share cranio-facial phenotypes with Somalis. Some Northern Europeans such as the "Black Irish" share dark hair and eye color with Greeks. However, the typical phenotypic trend in West Africa is broader cranio-facial phenotypes in Western Africa than in Eastern Africa. Likewise, the typical phenotypic trend in Northern Europe is lighter eyes and hair than in Southern Europe. What distinguishes these two scenarios is that while Horn of Africa populations share in common gene pools with Western Africans, Greeks have substantially insignificant frequencies of the true European bloodlines Hg I and Hg R1b.
