[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Punos_Rey: [QB] Re: Oshun Right??? It's like this guy is seriously expecting us to believe that this Tuareg from Algeria [/QUOTE]I predict based on geographical distance that Taureg from Libya or Algeria will be closer genetically to Europeans than Sub-Saharan Africans. Those Taureg in the Sahel (southern Niger and Mali), i.e. on the border of Sub-Saharan Africa, will be closer genetically to Sub-Saharan Africans. This does not mean I am saying these populations are European or Sub-Saharan African - North Africa is intermediate between these extremes. But northernmost North African populations tend to be closer to Europeans based on closer geographical proximity, while the more southern populations, learn towards SSA's. While we have little genetic data on the Taureg (and no modern cranial studies I'm aware of), I believe MtDNA roughly divides the Libyan/Algerian Taureg from Mali/Niger Taureg, so for example observe the Fst distance between [1] (Libyan Taureg) to [53] (Sahel Taureg). The former fall in the North African grouping by the analyst, but the latter with central sub-Saharan Africans.

[/qb][/QUOTE]There are several "Tuareg" ethnic groups stretching from the sub Sahara, into the Sahara into North Africa. Some of the ethnic groups indeed carry high signals of what is conciderd Eurasian, just like Hg E-M78 and others sequences have been considered "Eurasian". Heck, even E1b1b1b-M81 was considered Eurasian, and some still force this notion to be true.

The Tuareg are seminomadic pastoralist groups that are mostly spread between Libya, Algeria, Mali, and Niger. *They speak a Berber language and are believed to be the descendents of the Garamantes people of Fezzan, Libya* (500 BC - 700 CE) [34]."[/QUOTE]--Karima Fadhlaoui-Zid et al.

For example, the Andalucians share many IBD segments with the Tunisians (Fig. 3), who present extremely minimal levels of European ancestry. [b]This suggests that gene flow occurred from Africa to Europe rather than the other way around.[/b] [...] Alternative models of gene flow: Migration(s) from the Near East likely have had an effect on genetic diversity between southern and northern Europe (discussed below), but do not appear to explain the gradients of African ancestry in Europe. A model of gene flow from the Near East into both Europe and North Africa, such as a strong demic wave during the Neolithic, could result in shared haplotypes between Europe and North Africa. [b]However, we observe haplotype sharing between Europe and the Near East follows a southeast to southwest gradient, while sharing between Europe and the Maghreb follows the opposite pattern (Fig. 2); this suggests that gene flow from the Near East cannot account for the sharing with North Africa.[/b][/QUOTE]--Laura R.
