[QUOTE]Originally posted by Oshun: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] [i]If[/i] the New Kingdom Egyptian samples c. 1300 BCE are closest in their autosomal DNA to Neolithic/Ancient/Modern Levantines, then those affinities were there as far back as the Epipalaeolithic when Afro-Asiatic speakers settled in Egypt. Carleton Coon & Hamiticists vindicated...[/qb][/QUOTE]Epipalaeolithic Europeans = Modern Europeans? What would a difference in Epipalaeolithic Europeans mean for settlements, cities and expression of civilization 6-1k B.C in Europe? Also, New Kingdom Northern Egyptian samples showing affinities to Levanites (and not North Africans) would be reflection of the population history of [b]Northern[/b] Egypt which could've existed from predynastic times. [QUOTE]Of course though these Afrocentric psychos will cling to a "massive migration" scenario of Asiatics pouring into Egypt (2nd millennium BC).[/QUOTE]Asiatics didn't have to pour in by the second millennium. Research suggests that the Delta area and Faiyum doubled in size. Rather than "mass migration" it's possible that the North was always more diffused compared to southerners who had more affinity to Nubians, or that small-scale migration over the course of thousands of years gradually changed the North. [QUOTE] It will be funny when we get older samples and they more or less show the same Levantine affinities. Afronuts will then be screaming. [/QUOTE]If those samples aren't in southern Egypt or in Northern Sudan and aren't at least 2k BCE I don't see them screaming. the "African Egypt" hypothesis has really held to the idea that Egyptian culture came from the south and moved northward, even as far East into the Levant (Canaan). Even if Northerners had always mixed with Levanites, interest is not really on the usurped north as much as southern Egypt. P.S: Syrian L lineages are present as late as 2k BP. So the Levant wasn't likely doing nothing but giving genetic material, it was likely receiving it too. But then..where'd the L lineages in Syria come from if Northern Africans didn't really have L lineages??? [/QB][/QUOTE]
