[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] I know. Earth to Lioness, are you there? That's what I've trying to tell you; heir haplogroup percentages are not representative. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: doens' this suggest that maybe they are not primarily of East African descent? [/QUOTE]Mozabites should be at least 70% African if their haplogroup percentages are taken literally and one counts mtDNA M1 and U6 as African. As a reference, Oprah is 89% African in her ancestry. It goes without saying that 30% Eurasian ancestry in Mozabites cannot make them as pale as the majority evidently is. It's preposterous, really. What genomewide analysis shows: [QUOTE]We show that the [b]Mozabite have inherited roughly 78% ancestry from a European-related population and 22% ancestry from a population related to sub-Saharan Africans.[/b] Our analysis also shows that the Mozabite admixture has occurred over a period that began at least 100 generations ago (~2,800 years ago), and that has continued into the present day. We are able to infer small, ancient, ancestry segments in the Mozabite, and we demonstrate that the segments show considerable drift relative to all the other HGDP populations, consistent with the historical isolation of the Mozabite population.[/QUOTE]--Price et al 2009 [/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
