[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Punos_Rey: [qb] ^ Wow really? Just when I thought discourse on this forum couldn't reach a new low. [/qb][/QUOTE]As long as you have losers like xyzman resort to ad-hominem name-calling whenever I or others burst his delusional bubble, then yeah he will bring this forum to the gutter. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [qb] :confused: Why are you posting seemingly random text leaving people to wonder what you're trying to say? Sometimes it takes a couple of minutes to read an article and people assume there some sort of point related to the discussion they get out of reading it. If by the end there is no coherent point and you have to wonder what the point is, you're just wasting folks' time and energy. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yeah I've been noticing this too. I wish Ish would give us some contextual clue as to the purpose of his citations. [QUOTE][qb] If the posts above about continuity between Meroe and earlier periods were meant as a passive aggressive vent against Hassan 2009's aDNA results, the F-M89 mutation was only found in the Christian sample, not in the Meroitic sample. Hence, why I highlighted Hassan's quote the way I did. Veteran posters have no excuse to still not know the basics of Hassan's aDNA results by now. Especially not if they're going to complain about the results. [/qb][/QUOTE]Indeed, Hassan's findings only confirm what the archaeological record shows--- that since the last Kushite kingdom (Meroe) there was a large influx into the Nubian Nile Valley of other peoples probably leading to its fall. The archaeological material shows that the source of most of these peoples is from the west in the Saharan region. So obviously there was no continuity. Even many linguists theorize that these Saharan migrants were the Nilo-Saharan speakers who displaced the native Afrisian speakers. The question I have though is the provenance of F-M89. Hassan and others classify it as "Eurasian", yet its presence in Arabia is relatively rare compared to Africa. The highest frequency I've seen is in the Kordofan area which is overwhelmingly Nilo-Saharan speaking with a few Arabized tribes. [/QB][/QUOTE]
