[QUOTE]Originally posted by Supercar: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: Supercar [QUOTE] I think the question should rather be: how does the TMRCA, as attested to by E3b, can be linked to genetic distance found between populations, especially when they have been separated for a considerable time, naturally in addition to geographical & corresponding cultural separation? [/QUOTE]The major problem with dating the rate of separation of these groups is that much of the dating for the TMRCA for these groups was much later than many people on the forum assume.[/QUOTE]Do you know how TMRCA of Y chromosome markers are reached? Please elaborate on how TMRCA, as discerned from these markers, doesn't approximate to the time of the most recent common ancestor, but rather TMRCA is 'much later than many people on the forum assume'. [QUOTE]Clyde Winters: First of all the Niger-Congo, Nilo-Saharan and etc. speakers originally lived in Nubia, as a result it is obvious that these groups although spread from West to East Africa would share many genetic features, and the genetic distance between populations would not be as great as many researchers assume.[/QUOTE]That humanity likely arose on the eastern corner of Africa is a well known idea. So, apparently people who now dwell in the western, northern and southern ends of the continent had to have moved there at some point. [QUOTE] The Bantu, Wolof etc. are not the original settlers of the places they now live. Using place names Diop early illustrated that these people formerly lived further East. In addition , the oral traditions of these people speak of "small blacks" living in these areas when the present inhabitants arrived on the scene.[/QUOTE]See prior post. [QUOTE]Clyde Winters: The archaeological, linguistic and other data make it clear that the TMRCA for the speakers of most Black African speakers was probably 8000-6000ybp.[/QUOTE]According to whom, from a genetic standpoint? What marker was used to come up with this singular TMRCA and dating? [/QB][/QUOTE]
