[QUOTE]Originally posted by .Charlie Bass.: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] [QUOTE]Both Rightmire and Hiernaux > concluded that prehistoric East Africans are ancestral > to the above stated modern living East African > populations.[/QUOTE]Rightmire (1984) retracted his previous claims about the East African crania. All those skeletal remains (Gamble's Cave, Elmenteita, Willey's Kopje etc.) were re-dated in the 1980s. None of them are prehistoric, but Iron Age (500 BCE). Hiernaux (1975) is often misquoted by Afrocentrists. He never actually denied substantial "Caucasoid" mixture in the Sahel and Horn of Africa. "The larger sample of northern Somali belonging to various groups, the best represented being the Warsingili, are much shorter (169 cm) and have a relatively narrower face and nose; apparently they are [b]strongly Arabicized[/b]." "We are on much firmer ground in the case of populations which exhibit values near to the 'Arab' end of the scale for a number of independent traits: [b]the probability that factors other than genetic admixture might generate such systematic affinities with Arabs is very low. Such is clearly the case for the populations of central Ethiopia[/b]." :rolleyes: [/qb][/QUOTE]There are other remains and there were no "Arabs in Ethiopia in prehistoric times.
