[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] There is a misconception that, because the Afalou and Taforalt samples were cold adapted [b]overall[/b], they necessarily must have had cold adapted limbs, Remember what I said in 2013 [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QUOTE] Originally posted by Lioness: yet it icould be consistent with the Brenna Henn back migration hypothesis, the reason for the cold adapted limb ratios and also brachycephalism of some of the Afalou ( as well as Achilli 2005 finding common U5 hgs between Lapps (Saami) and berber)[/QUOTE]Agree, but [qb]it should be noted that the Ibero-Maurusians are likely not cold-adapted [i]in their limbs[/i].[/qb] Mesolithic European and East Asians fossils also have relatively high limb proportions. In fact, Mesolithic Europeans have much higher crural and brachial indices than Ibero-Maurusians. Their crural and brachial index are at 85.5% and 77.5 respectively per Holiday 1997. Its simply a pleisiomorphic trait from their Upper Palaeolithic ancestors, and ultimate from Africans. [b]What you want to look at is their bodyplan in its entirety or their absolute limb length, both of which are unlikely to retain a plesiomorphic state for as long as limb proportions[/b].
