[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by beyoku: [qb] Ok. Here is a question. And it's not a trick question. If the African contribution to the Y-Chromosome on these mummies was 0-3% A/B/E would we still argue thy are native? Reasons for and against? [/qb][/QUOTE]Your question requires data from the early dynastic period in order for it to be answered in full and demands questions of its own. For instance, are these incredibly low levels of African Y-Chromosomes a continuum of predynastic and or early dynastic genetic profiles of Northern Egypt? Or did they make an appearance much later in the third intermediate period? If they precede the formation of the Egyptian State and the attendant identity that it created, then they are Egyptian by virtue of time and their early participation in the development of the Egyptian State, but their genes would concurrently be foreign to Africa in recognition of the fact that their genetic profiles developed outside of Africa. If they arrived on the scene long after the formation of the Egyptian State, then they are not Egyptian in the ethnic sense -- naturalization notwithstanding. [/QB][/QUOTE]
