[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: Key point here is that the "east african" haplogroup M1 is also "sub saharan" African. Nice wordplay there though on the part of the researchers. Meaning that the Tuaregs have a majority of Sub Saharan African lineages with some 'Eurasian' mixture and it is most likely that that M1 lineage would have to be further analyzed to see if it represents the earliest movements of Berber speakers from East Africa. Not to mention the earliest references to Berbers were in the areas of East Africa in documents like the Periplus of the Erythrean(Eritrean) sea. [/QB][/QUOTE]Linking the sub-Saharan and West Eurasian gene pools: maternal and paternal heritage of the Tuareg nomads from the African Sahel Luísa Pereira, 2010 In this study, we provide new mtDNA and Y chromosome data sets of three unrelated Tuareg groups from three different countries (Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso). The weak Eastern African influence in Tuareg is further supported by the M1 haplotypes belonging to the lineages characteristic of the later Mediterranean expansion (M1b and M1a2a) and the presence of very few matches for sub-Saharan L haplotypes with East Africa. The main post-LGM Eurasian and M1a2a lineages found in the Tuareg favour North African origin with migration to its southern location in the Sahel between ∼9000 and ∼3000 years ago. The upper time limit is defined by the age of the M1a2a, (estimated here from the coding region diversity observed in the three Tuareg, two North and two south Mediterranean individuals at 8000±2400), and by the upper 95% confidence interval for the Tuareg V lineages having polymorphism 16 234 (8800 years ago); the lower limit is defined by the age of the Tuareg V lineages having polymorphism 16 234 (3600 years ago).
