[QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [QB] ^You're right on the money. To my knowledge the Somali samples are all uniform. They have a lil more MENA than Luxmanda, however they also have low amount of Mbuti-like ancestry possibly from bantu influences. I ran the same results with the chimp earlier and got negative Z-scores for Lux,Som;WA,Mbuti... So I can believe that their amounts of MENA is very close maybe a lil less than 40% as you say. However I don't think the differences among WAsian influences should be taken lightly, and the [b]shared ancestry[/b] between those guys should also be respected. for instance: Somalis are simultaneously more Modern SSAn(dinka-WAfr) and West-Eurasian than Luxmanda, the biggest differences in their non African ancestry is that of Iran_N, so if you fit Somali between Luxmanda,Dinka,Iran_N in qpAdm the Iranian component will have to compensate for the added SSan(dinka) ancestry. It's a bit convoluted but what's thought provoking is the possibility that Luxmanda might harbor shared ancestry between these West Asian groups, whether it is BE, N.African or whatever.. if that is true, how would we go about distinguishing which population mixed with Luxmanda and to what magnitude?? The more I look into it, the more I get suspicious about Skoglunds postulation in regards to Luxmanda being partially ancestral to PPNB... we might need to take it more seriously. [/QB][/QUOTE]
