I don't see any negroid category, how come you're always successfull to make a fool out of yourself?

I needed this map. It just explained a lot of things to me and answered questions that I had. Yonis, Sudanese+Palenegritic+everything to the south = Negroid. Ethiopic is at least partially Negroid :-)
This map concurs with all the DNA findings we've been getting.
As the the Germans would say: Danke

The map is trash. Nothing but outdated pseudoscience. It and other theories like it have been debunked by modern bioanthropology and genetics.
-- Human races as human variation
Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA genealogies are especially interesting because they demonstrate the lack of concordance of lineages with morphology and facilitate a phylogenetic analysis. Individuals with the same morphology do not necessarily cluster with each other by lineage, and a given lineage does not include only individuals with the same trait complex (or 'racial type'). Y-chromosome DNA from Africa alone suffices to make this point. Africa contains populations whose members have a range of external phenotypes. This variation has usually been described in terms of 'race' (Caucasoids, Pygmoids, Congoids, Khoisanoids). But the Y-chromosome clade defined by the PN2 transition (PN2/M35, PN2/M2) shatters the boundaries of phenotypically defined races and true breeding populations across a great geographical expanse. African peoples with a range of skin colors, hair forms and physiognomies have substantial percentages of males whose Y chromosomes form closely related clades with each other, but not with others who are phenotypically similar. The individuals in the morphologically or geographically defined 'races' are not characterized by 'private' distinct lineages restricted to each of them. --

That it reflects the old racist pseudo-scientific anthropology of its day--- All of which has been refuted. LOL

Indeed, that is exactly what those terms mean. Of course today all experts agree it is utter rubbish.

How so, considering that genetics (all the DNA findings we've been getting) shows that such racial typologies do not exist, especially with the discovery of the PN2 clade?!
