[QUOTE]Originally posted by Amun-Ra The Ultimate: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by beyoku: [qb] There can be no in-depth discussion of African Substructure if the most vocal members of the site think 'All Africans are genetically close to each other' [/qb][/QUOTE]It's not that all African populations are genetically close to each other. But African populations are usually genetically (and culturally) closer to each others than they are to Eurasian populations. That much is obvious. Not you or anybody can deny this. As Keita have noted many times, most African populations are related through the same paternal lineage E-P2 (PN2). He calls it the "PN2 Bridge". So most Cushitic, Chadic and Niger-Kordofanian speakers share the same paternal lineages as well as sharing maternal lineages and being close autosomally. Ramses III was determined to be of this lineage (P2/E1b1a). Autosomally, using full genome sequencing: [IMG]http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y421/amunratheultimate2/Misc2/Fst%20Estimate%20of%20the%20African%20indigenous%20Egyptian%20componant_zpsfssjmur1.jpg[/IMG] [URL=http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ajhg.2015.04.019]link[/URL] Clearly African populations like Somali are closer to other African populations like Yoruba or African Americans than Europeans (CEU) despite recent Eurasian admixtures in East Africa. 0.019/0.015 is lower than 0.024. The shared lineages and genetics is important to analyse the history of African populations. [/QB][/QUOTE]
