[QUOTE]Originally posted by capra: [QB] Estimated 6-15% African ancestry in the ancient samples, while modern Egyptians have 14-21%. And yes they used everyone's favourite True Negros the Yoruba for the sole SSA reference. :D 3 samples with nuclear DNA are: J2134 776-569 BC, mt hg J1d, Y hg J J2911 769-560 BC, mt hg M1a1, Y hg J J2888 97-2 BC, mt hg U6a2, Y hg E1b1b1a1b2-V22 So yes can be all Libyans, Hyksos, or Assyrians if that floats your boat. :p J2911 had the best coverage and least contamination. He had 2/2 + calls for derived rs1426654 in [i]SLC24A5[/i] and 0/7 + calls for derived s16891982 in [i]SLC45A2[/i]. J2888 had 1 + call for rs1426654. So probably medium skin colour (sample is tiny and no data for other variants) - like modern Upper Egyptians maybe? Also brown eyes and lactose intolerant. [/QB][/QUOTE]
