[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] @ Ish Iberomaurusians do not cluster with Capsians in their dental metrics/non-metrics: "However, there is [b]no evidence for a close affinity between Afalou and Capsians[/b], or with most other samples. Recent cranial analyses (Groves & Thorne, 1999) support these findings. Thus, conversely, several conclusions by Balout (1955), Chamla (1973, 1975, 1978), Camps (1974), and Hiernaux (1975) are sustained." (Irish, 2000) The craniometric study you posted clustering Iberomaurusians with Capsians is pretty much contradicted by every other analysis, including Groves & Thorne (1999) and all of Chamla's studies (1973, 1975, 1978, 1980, 1986), e.g. "The 'Proto-Mediterranean' class of physical remains is comprised of skeletons not displaying classic Mechtoid traits and exhibiting the broad physical characteristics of modern Mediterranean Caucasoid populations: no marked alveolar prognathism, round sagittal contour, narrow nasal aperture (Chamla, 1968). This physical type is first identified in Africa with the Capsian material culture (c. 9000-6000 BP)." (MacDonald, 1998) [/qb][/QUOTE]Tell me what is considered Mediterranean?
