[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Elite Diasporan: [qb] @Elmaestro If you study Moorish history you would know that European populations(both slaves and expelled Muslims from Iberia/Sicily) absorbed most of the Northwest African population and is where the European admixture comes from. Northwest Africa prior to the Muslim expulsion from Europe was sparsely populated. This is similar to Bantu people absorbing the indigenous population of Central and Southern Africa. Northwest Africa being sparsely populated made it easy for population replacement. To give you an example Christian renegades (Spanish, Italian, French, Albanian, etc. who would eventually convert to Islam) and the medieval slave trade had a major impact on places like Tlemcen, Oran, Bejaia (Bougie - Kabyle central) and especially Alger. Jacques Heers argues in "Les barbaresques" (2001, pg 227) at the time of Turkish rule in Algeria, [b]something like 50% of the population in the capital was composed of European-Christian slaves[/b] (even Italian slaves by the seventeenth century). Saqalibas from the Balkans were also well represented. Besides, Arab excursions displaced many of the ancestral populations of the Maghreb between the 12th-15th centuries. This is just speaking for Northwest Africa BUT the Canary Islands WERE apart of the Berber/Moorish influence and did see migrations from Europe. I'm still surprised with the significant L lineages. @Capra WOW! Nubian!? Gonna have to give this a deeper read through.
