[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [qb] I think the genetic affinities of the ancient Egyptians is of far more importance to the "anti-African side" than the implications for Pro-Semitic. I still don't even know what to make of the Abusir study. It seems to be in opposition to all the archaeological and anthropological evidence and is sourced from late dynastic Northern samples whose identities we have not been made aware of. [/qb][/QUOTE]Abusir is not in opposition to all the archaeological and anthropological evidence. TO the contrary it is quite in keeping with it- namely that when your sampling is heavily weighted towards Late Period/Northern samples you will skew the results a certain way. This is an old issue that appears in Cranial studies, as Barry Kemp's critique of the CRANID database used by forensic anthropologists demonstrated. If your evidence is loaded with samples from northern cemeteries then you get skewed results that downplay not only other data in situ, but also the historic south. They have been running this game for decades. [/QB][/QUOTE]
