[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tukuler: [QB] Besides Tubu genetics, Haratin genetics is also vital in understanding the genetic history of the Sahara. Raise a cup to us staying alive until such reports appear. The field still accept Cavalli-Sforza's classical nuclear markers defining Beja (Cushitic) Tuareg (Berber) high affinity. (Begin reading Cavalli-Sforza1994 p172[URL=http://books.google.com/books?id=FrwNcwKaUKoC&pg=PA172]here[/URL]) He posits a 5k split between the two. If this map is correct Chadic and Berber do originate near the same geography in line with Ehret's proto-Chado-Berber. [IMG]http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/8919/lzy0.jpg[/IMG] Initial routing on the map can show movement of the Beja Cushitic ancestral component in Tuareg along the same corridor as Chado-Berber expansion. And WNW bound Nilo-Saharan utilized this same route. Tubu are Nilo-Saharans. No major migration was necessary and the further from the initial contact points the less of the E Africans. No E Africans at all needed to be at furthest points of the language shift of Cushitic Beja to Tuareg Tamasheq and further on to "Berber." E African mtDNA would thin out from Tschad to Fezzan being totally absent in the Maghreb and language shift still works. But note Tishkoff2009's STRUCTURE analysis Fig S13 show Beja and Mzabi essential not distinct with Beja more E African and Mzabi more Eurasian. East African mtDNA in Fezzani Tuareg likely represents the deme bearing the lect that North Africans adopted, a proto-language introduced from W Sudan. [/QB][/QUOTE]
