If some of the prominent dynastic Egyptians were 25% Eurasian would it bother you?

Do you think it's merely a repackaging of the thinking that brought us the "Dynastic Race Theory" which said Egypt was founded by foreigners? These articles all talk about a back migration of Eurasians into Africa, including the horn and South Africa, around 3000 years ago. Brenna Henn also talked about an earlier back migration 12,000 years ago. The recent article on Mota an of Ethiopia says that at some point short of 4,500 years ago there was a significant wave of Eurasians into Africa, part of the 'Neolithic revolution' of farmers form the Middle East which had already begin 4,000 years prior to that somewhere around 7.5-10,000 years ago. (the Neolithics who also went into Europe) "But they never talk about African admixture in Europe" - but they do look> wiki: "African Admixture in Europe:" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_admixture_in_Europe _____________ "but everything in wikipedia is wrong" O.k. fine, then look at the bottom of the wikipedia page where there are numerous references to scientific articles about African admixture in Europe. __________________________ But if you think it might be possible that these back migration articles could be to some extent true my question is this: Scientists have recently greatly improved techniques on ancient DNA analysis. There is a forthcoming analysis of Tutankhamun coming. His DNA my be determined by these tests to be vastly African. But let's suppose instead he turned out to be 20-25% Eurasian. That percentage is similar to the non-African DNA percentage of the average African American. So [b]if Tutankhamun's DNA turned out to be 20-25% non-African would it bother you? [/b] Are you convinced it's impossible? I think it's possible but it may or may not turn out that way. [/QB][/QUOTE]
