[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [qb] Nice find TP. I always contend that the tropical belt of Africa was NOT the orginal source. It was either Sahara or Further south in Southern Africa. Not the Ethiopian region per Leakey. Tishkoff suggested origin in Southern Africa. Norton suggest origin in more Northern Africa. I beleive it was more Northern Africa. [/qb][/QUOTE]The Sahara was not always as dry as it is today. There was a green period with plenty of vegetation and was much more habitable for humans. One of the populations living at that time were the Capsians in the Tunisan region 10,000 to 6,000 BCE. After that the Sahara was getting drier and drier. After the drying of the Sahara there is no evidence of human settlement in the Maghreb until around 800 BC until Phoenician and Greek settlements. So there is little evidence that the current population is derived from those earlier populations. There is gap there of nothing happeng for a few thousand years [/QB][/QUOTE]
