[QUOTE]Originally posted by Nodnarb: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [qb] Those L mtDNAs cluster them with West/Central Africans, not East Africans. So, in terms of mtDNAs, they are not the population they were when they migrated west. M81 also has no evidence of representating that westward migration ~7kya. It's cline is opposite of what we'd expect in that scenario. In fact, its cline is most similar to U6's cline and therefore much more consistent with Iberomaurusians than Berber speakers. I personally think E-M78 (V65) tracks their movements in North Africa. I'm not completely ruling out that Berber speakers were also M81, but I think a much stronger case can be made for a much older presence in the Maghreb for that hg. [/qb][/QUOTE]Do you think it is possible that the people who brought proto-Berber languages to the Maghreb were affiliated to West rather than Northeast Africans? We know from the example of Chadic that West Africans can acquire Afroasiatic languages. I don't mean to propose this was the exact same movement that brought Berber to the Maghreb, only to suggest that not every presence of AA languages in a region necessitates a direct migration of Northeast African-affiliated people into that area. I think I remember you saying somewhere that certain sub-Saharan mtDNA haplogroups in North Africa came in that area after 10,000 years ago (i.e. during the Green Sahara), but I am not sure where you said it.
