[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: Holiday has made at least two references to peculiarities in this Christian era sample. These peculiarities are well know in the literature and were observed well before Holiday started using this sample, and well before his limb data results confirmed what was written in those early reports. Also, please don't try to lecture me about the differences between non-metric data and limb data, as it'll lead to nowhere. I actually have a history of looking into this stuff--you don't. Your insinuation that the entire Christian era population needs to be revisited on the account of one peculiar sample reeks of bias. [/QUOTE]My insinuation that if what you are saying is correct and Holliday has produced this 2013 article and not mentioned in this article that he is using a peculiar sample then he is misrepresenting Nubians in general as having limb ratios less high than AA and Egyptians and with a bias toward being closer than Europeans than other Christian era Nubians. And does he mention anything in this 2013 article about these Nubians being Christian era? If they are then he should have mentioned it don't you think? It's only two more words There's no point in using a peculiar sample unless your focus is on it being peculiar [/QB][/QUOTE]
