[QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [QB] I think there's a little bit of romanticizing going on here. While I agree that there are many clues suggesting that the origins of AMH came about more westward than we originally thought I believe the explanation [i]Dienkes[/i] gives is more towards comfort than objectivity. (as it relates to what's quoted by by OP) The wording seems to suggest human origins in North Africa, then dispersals from the region populating nearby areas or so to the east, essentially suggesting that different populations branched from a north African Epicenter with multiple waves towards the south. This seems like a way to cut corners and not have to deal with the reality and/or magnitude of the implications of some findings like haplogroup DE and the shared introgression and admixture in North and SSA. To me it doesn't really matter where AMH actually emerged, what matters is everything else. Most OOA's particularly west Eurasians and north Africans converge on a model Ancient East African (AEA) a subsaharan Archetype. Other OOAs fall in between the latter and extant San populations (not even BBay's basal African). I also haven't seen any live evidence of archaic introgression in north Africa not shared with SSA's. So even If Humans did originate from North Africa, I don't buy the Idea that they branched out of that region (at that time). Rather there was later a [b]PostOOA population expansion[/b] mostly within Africa involving the MENA, which'll better explain the distribution of HG.E. <- that I believe have a north African/Saharan source.
