[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: The same can be said of your other comparisons; you're comparing population averages with a single specimen, without having taken into account whether the Ohalo falls within the range of the Ibero-Maurusian group. In addition, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about, as you're clumsily presenting your excerpts as 'Natufian vs Ibero-Maurusian', even though the Ohalo II specimen isn't even Natufian. [/QUOTE]How about the Ohalo specimen being thrown into the mix, because it is an upper Paleolithic [b]Levantine[/b] specimen, and could prove insightful in demonstrating that there is a general trend in differentiation between the Mesolithic north African series and counterparts from the Levant? That obviously did not cross your mind. As for comparing this specimen with a series from the Maghreb, well, there just isn't enough of them Ohalo II remains; there is not much else we can do about that, now can we, other than treat the Ohalo as a possible window into the community from which it came, as is done with the case of the Nazlet Khater specimen, or the "Old Man Cro-Magnon". You are really new at this sort of thing, aren't you. [i]The [b]morphological continuity for some 10,000 years between Upper Palaeolithic remains (Nahal Ein Gev, Ohalo) and the Natufian population[/b] of the Levant is on indication of a local origin and development of the latter population, despite changes in patterns of life, diet and environment.[/i] - Arensburg et al. (1995) Perhaps this in its own way reiterates the point of comparing the Maghreb series with the Ohalo II remain(s). [/QB][/QUOTE]
