[QUOTE]Originally posted by kenndo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] The Ottoman Empire controlled Sudan, Eritrea and Somalia for 400 years. Can this explain the presence of Eurasian genes among populations in this area instead of a back migration? Alwa Alodia was the furthest of the Nubian states from the influences of Egypt and thus the last of the Nubian states to be converted to Islam. The conventional date for the final destruction of Alodia is the Funj conquest of the region in the early sixteenth century. Archaeological evidence seems to show that the kingdom was in decline as early as the thirteenth century. Near the end of this century al-Harrani reports that the capital had been moved to Wayula. Later Mamluk emissaries reported that the region was divided among nine rulers.Alodia was the furthest of the Nubian states from the influences of Egypt and thus the last of the Nubian states to be converted to Islam.

Later Mamluk emissaries reported that the region was divided among nine rulers. Alodia seems to have preserved its identity after the Funj conquest and its incorporation into the Kingdom of Sennar. The Alodians, who became known as the Abdallab, revolted under Ajib the Great and formed the semi-autonomous Kingdom of Dongola that persisted for several centuries. The Funj Sultanate of Sennar (sometimes spelled Sinnar), known in Sudanese traditions as the Blue Sultanate (Arabic: السلطنة الزرقاء; As-Saltana az-Zarqa‎),[9] was a sultanate in the north of Sudan, named Funj after the ethnic group of its dynasty or Sinnar (or Sennar) after its capital, which ruled a substantial area of northeast Africa between 1504 and 1821. [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8b/CentralEastAfrica1750.png[/IMG] The turks only controlled the northern sudan,remember they lost in the last half of the SUDAN 1800's and they seem to not have controlled Eritrea or Somalia . I did not read most of what was said in this thread but i just had to correct this. [/QB][/QUOTE]
