[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mansamusa: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [qb] @ Bass To give you only one example of your recent BS: [QUOTE][b]West Eurasian components were masked out[/b], and the remaining African haplotypes were compared with a panel of sub-Saharan African and non-African genomes. [b]We showed that masked Northeast African haplotypes overall were more similar to non-African haplotypes and more frequently present outside Africa than were any sets of haplotypes derived from a West African population[/b]. Furthermore, the [b]masked Egyptian haplotypes showed these properties more markedly than the masked Ethiopian haplotypes'[/b], pointing to Egypt as the more likely gateway in the exodus to the rest of the world. [/QUOTE]--Pagani et al 2015 To which you replied: [QUOTE] Are you saying that Elongated tropically adapted bodies come from non-African mixture? So everyone from Fulani, Somali, Tutsi, Maasai, Bahima, comes from mixture? Why aren't the non-Africans this supposedly came from "Elongated" with the same body build? Show me the Eurasian ancestors who have this elongated body plan [/QUOTE]You can't seriously believe the Pagani quote is saying Northeast Africans' distinctive features are entirely the product of Eurasian admixture. Instead it shows exactly what I was trying to hammer into your skull earlier, namely that Northeast Africans have a stronger affinity to OOA populations than do West Africans precisely because OOA represent a derivative of Northeast Africans. The principle is simple to grasp, so why don't you wrap your head around it and admit you were wrong? [/qb][/QUOTE]Your analysis is rather obvious from the quote Swenet posted. I just don't see how it relates to whatever point Swenet is making about Sub-Saharan Africans vs North Africans. The Pagani quote is saying that North East Africa including Sub_Saharan East Africa(Ethiopia) is more related to OOA populations than West Africans. A fact which more true of Egypt than Ethiopia. So now only West Africans are Sub-Saharan Africans or am I missing something here? [/qb][/QUOTE]I'm using West/Central African to mean the same thing as Swenet's "sub-Saharan" term. I will admit to having a personal dislike of "sub-Saharan" as a term since it's often associated with the fallacy that dark-skinned Africans are exclusively found south of the Sahara and that North Africans have always been biological and cultural transplants from the Middle East or Mediterranean region. But I'm not going to police other people's use of the term, and I know what individuals like Swenet and beyoku mean when they invoke the term. [/QB][/QUOTE]
