[QUOTE]Originally posted by Amun-Ra The Ultimate: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Tukuler: [qb] By that argument N is African because its parent L3 is African. In fact it is referred to as L3N in the field. Continuing that argument R is African because N is African. Anyway no population geneticist claims U6 is Eurasian. [/qb][/QUOTE]Every geneticists admit it's parent haplogroup like other ancestral U, N and R is Eurasian even if the U6 mutation itself may have first appeared in North Africa (or in the Near East or Iberia). So ultimately they are a product of a very ancient back migration into Africa. Autosomal DNA would also cluster most Berbers with Eurasians not with other black African people. This study goes even further than me and posit a Near Eastern origin of U6: [QUOTE]World-wide phylogeographic distribution of human complete mitochondrial DNA sequences suggested a West Asian origin for the autochthonous North African lineage U6. [/QUOTE]From [i]Mitochondrial DNA transit between West Asia and North Africa inferred from U6 phylogeography[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
