[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] Keep in mind that I'm not denying the existence of modern Berbers with dark skin. My position is these modern Berbers didn't turn out to be what some people here (including me) thought they were before genome-wide studies become popular. Take, for instance, the Zenata Berbers. They have been sampled recently in Central Algeria and this what they look like genetically: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0138453 They are obviously a hybrid population. They have West African, Maghrebi and other, smaller, contributions. Many people here have considered these so-called 'black Berbers' an ancient and differentiated population associated primarily with E-M81. But their autosomal contributions don't support this because they don't form their own 'Amazigh' cluster (for instance, the Yoruba sample has its own gray cluster in this paper, while the Zenata Berbers belong to several different clusters assigned to neighboring populations).
