[QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [QB] Look, being met with resistance because I'm a black researcher by "euro-clowns" or whatever is one thing, however it's the fucking subservient Africans (diasporans) who irritate me. It's only common that you'll have to deal with logical loopholes, and mental gymnastics from the former, I don't care if they chose to understand where I'm coming from or not. The signs are clear regarding certain things it's only the fine details that need to be ironed out. The mighty question is what does anyone have to gain by denying the "Africanity" of certain protocultures? It seems quite obvious for me that the ancient African Genetic landscape was very broad. The problem stemmed from sloppy partitioning of Subsaharan Africans in the first place. Look at the ancient Ballito Bay specimen for example and keep in the back of our minds the genetic Diversity of Africans. -Ballito Bay A and Yoruba have a distance (FST) of ~0.150... YRI have ancestry from a population that diverged earlier than Balito bay did. -Natufians actually have IAM(like) Admixture and have a distance of ~0.200 from them!!?! -The Bantu expansion seen every corner of the African continent...that's shared ancestry dating to roughly 4kya max, yet the Luhya and Yoruba avg differences can clear a the distance of the entirety of Europe. -And Natufians and Yoruba have an average distance of 0.168 (FST) - [i]over 15% closer than a population with shared affinity to Natufians (IAM)[/i] So all in all... WTF is a Eurasian and WTF is a SSA? I thought it would be wise to give Eurasian a definition, basically; Eurasian is a Geo-temporal place holder for the extreme levels of drift apparently [i]separating [b]modern[/b][/i] non African and African populations. ("Subsaharan African" was is and will always be a misnomer.) The further we reach back for samples in Africa AND the Near East the more the previous boundaries get muddy so we find ourselves using modern genetic substructure to Identify Ancient populations... some people refuse to see the issue in doing so, [b]This is just one example of why Genetics, especially of only a handful of ancient individuals, can NOT possibly be the end all answer to anything[/b]....cuz, for example, Yorubans and Natufians could share Ancient ancestry that parallels IAM and we wouldn't even know... This is why conceding an indigenous North African component is unacceptable. Jebel ihroud, MtHap L3* and schlebusch's qpGraphs (and the ones that follow) is a nightmare to the "Anti-Afrocentric."
