For more parallels, see the Lloyd D. Graham paper.

My question is whether there is any genetic evidence to support or corroborate this oral tradition?[/QUOTE]Not that familiar with Tuareg lineages that I can speak on this from memory. But modern day Tuareg genetic data might not be very helpful in terms of investigating specific questions like "were Yemenis involved during the formation of the Tuareg?". Given the loss of recent (early/mid holocene) northeast African ancestry in the Maghreb we may expect other, small, contributions from elsewhere to have undergone the same changes. This also includes the Phoenician presence along the Maghebi coast, which has also been difficult to detect genetically. The East African contribution to the Tuareg population we're discussing right now is only detectable as a small increase of East African lineages compared to other Maghrebis. Any Yemeni contribution should be a similar, but smaller, increase of the Middle Eastern ancestry that was already there. But the Middle Eastern ancestry in Maghrebis is much larger and inconsistent throughout the Maghreb than the recent East African ancestry. It's like searching for a needle in a haystack.
