[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by beyoku: [QB] http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/figure/10.1080/24701394.2016.1258406?scroll=top&needAccess=true [/QUOTE]^abstract from above link: [b]On the origin of Iberomaurusians: new data based on ancient mitochondrial DNA and phylogenetic analysis of Afalou and Taforalt populations[/b] Rym Kefi, Meriem Hechmi, Chokri Naouali, Haifa Jmel, Sana Hsouna, Eric Bouzaid, show all Pages 1-11 | Received 17 Sep 2016, Accepted 04 Nov 2016, Published online: 30 Dec 2016 Abstract The Western North African population was characterized by the presence of Iberomaurusian civilization at the Epiplaeolithic period (around 20,000 years before present (YBP) to 10,000 YBP). The origin of this population is still not clear: they may come from Europe, Near East, sub-Saharan Africa or they could have evolved in situ in North Africa. With the aim to contribute to a better knowledge of the settlement of North Africa we analysed the mitochondrial DNA extracted from Iberomaurusian skeletons exhumed from the archaeological site of Afalou (AFA) (15,00011,000 YBP) in Algeria and from the archaeological site of Taforalt (TAF) (23,00010,800 YBP) in Morocco. Then, we carried out a phylogenetic analysis relating these Iberomaurusians to 61 current Mediterranean populations. The genetic structure of TAF and AFA specimens contains only North African and Eurasian maternal lineages. These finding demonstrate the presence of these haplotypes in North Africa from at least 20,000 YBP. [b]The very low contribution of a Sub-Saharan African haplotype in the Iberomaurusian samples is confirmed. [/b]We also highlighted the existence of genetic flows between Southern and Northern coast of the Mediterranean. _______________________________ This means Afalou (15,00011,000 YBP) in Algeria and Taforalt (23,00010,800 YBP) are indeed very different, genetically (and in limb proportions) to Sub Saharan Africans If you want to look at a population that is more gracile look at the Capsian between about 9000 and 5000 BC in Tunisia, that came after the Iberomaurusian However I am not aware of any DNA analysis. Again, populations have come and gone in the Maghreb [/QB][/QUOTE]
