[QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: I'ma just come out and say say what I believe might happen. Granted I only have a short-abstract to go off of, I feel like we'll see some elucidation on the Coptic cluster so often considered African. the Egyptian sample will cluster closely to their near eastern bank both Prehistoric and extant and possibly become more distinct later in history. They will also have other Eurasian components and a very very low if any SSA affinity. I don't think they'll shed much light on any other presumably North African correspondence. I don't believe that they'll base their findings solely off of YRI DNA, I sure to god hope they don't but if they do and include other SSA populations like maybe the Maasalit, or even the Luhya we'll see this near eastern affinity pop up commensurately. [/QUOTE]So yeah, Continuity: ✔️ Additional OOA components/clustering: ✔️ Low levels of SSA admixture: ✔️ SSA populations used as a reference: [b]??[/b] - It seems like I might be wrong here, and they are basing this off of YRI, they used similar terms they did with Lazaridis 2016. In terms of MtDNA, L actually disappears during roman period and resurfaces after????? But the most important thing to note here is continuity... What ever is to be said or speculated about these Late Intermediate Fayum samples has to be applied to the contemporary Egyptian population and more significantly [b]VICE-VERSA[/b].

I've been saying exactly this about the ancient Egyptians, for like the past 10 years now, that they were basically Fertile Crescent folks genetically. Kiss my hairy true Afro-Asiatic ass, @Charlie Bass [/QUOTE]Its not saying what they think its saying... [/qb][/QUOTE]They sampled 155 mummies from Abusir from 1388 BC to the Roman period 366 BC, about a 1000 year span. 155 mummies over that long of a time span. Right. Really tells us a lot now. It would be better to list the DNA of individual mummies at specific time frames than to lump them all together. Not that I care about "SSA" lineages. I care more about "African" lineages vs Non African lineages. [/qb][/QUOTE]...African lineages such as? ...and from where? ...Most Closely related to whom & how? ...once again is anyone gonna take a crack at Defining SSA? [/QB][/QUOTE]
