[QUOTE]Originally posted by typeZeiss: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by BlessedbyHorus: [qb] We can't ignore the historical aspect. During at least the Moorish period scholars(both European and Arab) did note very dark skinned Berber groups like the Masmuda Berbers. From what I understand the BULK of the Eurasian ancestry in Berbers came when European converts were expelled from Europe to North Africa. Also remember Northwest Africa for the most part was sparsely populated. Heck the Sanhaja Berbers even today are quite dark skin.

In opinion I don't think we should contribute EVERY dark skinned Berber group to SSA ancestry especially Saharan Berbers like the Sanhaja... Just my opinion. [/qb][/QUOTE]There were also MILLIONS of white european slaves that were introdcued into North Africa. People seem to ignore this fact. Berbers are obviously not one group ethnically. Some are jet black, some are brown, some tan and some white. Ibn Hawqal said in his time the bulk of them were blacks, with white sub groups living in the north. We can't ignore human migrations. I lean toward the opinion they were originally all black. Hence I am very interested to know about their (Black Amazigh) DNA, and how it clusters with other African groups. [/QB][/QUOTE]
