[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] Why has a thread about the origin of Tutsi (a Bantu people) all of a sudden turned into 'The Horner's Corner' (to quote a past poster in here)?!! [b]LOL[/b] To HornAfrican, 'AFRICA I' is a Habesha which means he is as much a Horn African as YOU. Not like it matters, although the guy is nutty for being obsessed with African peoples' physical appearances! Some of what 'AFRICA' says is ignorant true enough, but some of what you say is no different with your writings of "Congolid" and such which is very reminicent of past (banned) trolls like Nadeed and Leba! To Araweelo, I believe Yonis is correct as the link you provided mentioned nothing of Jaberti's ethncity. Yonis's finding makes more sense that the name was applied to Horn Africans who were already converted to Islam. And lastly, 'HornAfrican' makes an interesting point when he speaks of urban cultures in Somalia being in south further away from Yemen and Arabia proper. I find it funny how people make the generalization that all Horn Africans were nomads or that all Arabs were nomads when obviously there were sedentary peoples among both groups. Speaking of which... [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] :o I am just somewhat perturbed by the constant talk of Somalis having 'Arab' ancestry, when [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003664]"Arabs" themsevles have dubious ancestry[/URL]! Not to mention the many Yemenis who look not much different from Horn Africans simply because they themselves are of Horn African descent! It would probably be more accurate to say Yemenis have Somali ancestry than the other way around. [/qb][/QUOTE]What's funny is that early south Arabian sedentary kingdoms especially those of Yemen were created by people who in appearance were strikingly similar to Horn people (black). And in Biblical texts were described as literally 'Arabian Kushites'. So even if Darood and Issaq legends are true that their ancestors came from Yemen, perhaps it would not make much of a difference since these people could very well have origins in the Horn anyway!!
