The Garamantes were not Berber speakers

[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] Was there technique diversity in the Algerian Epi-Palaeolithic, metal age and modern Algerian instances of trephination? Please specify. What I don't buy into is not something as trivial as the use of separate techniques, what I don't buy is that the (idea of the) practice itself was independently invented 3 times, in the Maghreb. Your map only depicts early Capsian sites, not Neolithic/terminal Capsian sites extending well into Northern Libya. It doesn't even depict the full extent of Upper Capsian sites as the sites clearly don't go deep into Algeria. What evidence are you referring to that I'm not posting? I've referred several times now to mtDNA H1 and V and even asked you explicitly to address this genetic data that seemingly points to Capsian heritage in Tuareg, among others. Again, please give your take on this genetic evidence and what role you think it suggests for the Tuareg in the Tunisian/Libyan area, if not long term inhabitation. You say you're sticking to a Tassili/Acacus/Fezzan Garamante continuum but at the same time seem to oppose Tuareg links to the Garamantes kingdom. How are these necessarily mutually exclusive? What modern Libyan ethnic group would this Tassili/Acacus/Fezzan mix translate into, and would this amalgam not contradict your link of the Garamantes with the Tebu, who are clearly a Chadic population, with Chadic ancestry? You also mentioned Tebu tomb architecture as far West as South Central Algeria, please specify how you've come to this conclusion. [/QB][/QUOTE]
