[QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] @ Ish Gebor The "Negroid" morphotype is recent (early Holocene); Iwo Eleru is supposedly the oldest "Negroid" skull (11200 ± 200 BP), but badly damaged. Most the analyses of Iwo Eleru are anthroposcopy (i.e. visual assessment with no measurements), instead of multivariate craniometry. So its questionable if Iwo Eleru is even "Negroid". If you look at the pre-Holocene (Pleistocene) fossil record in Africa: you usually find crania that don't show any close ties to a single living/recent African population. There is a "mosaic" morphology; the skulls are generalized or undifferentiated and contain a mixture of Negroid & Bushmenoid traits/variables. Good examples include Nazlet Khater & Singa. This is why physical anthropologists (Coon, 1962) once erroneously thought Bushmen inhabited the entire continent. The "Caucasoid" and "Mongoloid" morphotypes pre-date the "Negroid". Middle Upper Palaeolithic skulls from Europe (like Cro-Magnon 1) are close[st] to living/recent Europeans. [/qb][/QUOTE]Reread your own statement, see how this makes no sense. :D See how your ignorance is oblivious and bigoted. [/qb][/QUOTE]This is why you must encourage the Opposition to update & make refined arguments rather than reengage in bogus or uninspired & tired debates lol. check it out, in the age of Genetics we know, modern west Africans & Bantus for the most part are not descendant from Forest HG's, pygmy nor Bushmen. If there were no noticeable contemporary African during the Pleistocene, where might they have come from, according to Cass' Model? Mind you, he notes that the mongoloid & Caucasoid like Morphology predates Negroid, I'm guessing he's relying on Multiregionalism... but This model inadvertently clumps some populations together by a common ancestor.
