[QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [qb] Ancient Egypt as a whole will be won or lost in the South -- where it all began. I don't see the "Eurasian" crowd winning in Southern Egypt if genetic samples are taken from this area... the most important area in Dynastic Egyptian history. Northern Egypt approaches irrelevance when compared to the South. It's just a fact. [/qb][/QUOTE]If ancient northern Egyptians were predominantly Levantine, why wouldn't southern Egyptians have a sizable amount? The former mixed with the latter, so at the very least there will be a moderate-to-high Levantine ancestry in southern Egyptians. Anyway, the reason I think this is still false, is we now have National Geographic 2017 genetic data (based on a large amount of samples all across Egypt) showing modern Egyptians as a whole are nearly 70% native/'North African'. Secondly, the Krause et al. 2017 PCA could have the New Kingdom Egyptian samples closest to Copts. [/QB][/QUOTE]
