[QUOTE]Originally posted by LoStranger: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb]I don't necessarily agree with the term "ANA" as we know populations have been moving in and out of North Africa since before Europe even had humans. So specifically to Taforalt and Dzudzuana in Europe the theory would be an ancestral population in Africa that is a common ancestor of both which would have a time range of 30 to 40 kya. Good luck finding such DNA in North Africa anytime soon.[/qb][/QUOTE]Hmmm so what about the upcoming (god knows when) Takarkori study which according to the abstract found a brand new lineage and was found to supposedly be related to Taforalt? What do you think that could be? It supposedly had neanderthal levels similar to modern day Sub-Saharans so it can't be very Eurasian. My question then would be given it's relatively young age 7000-6000 years and given what you just mentioned about a "Pure" Ancestral North African lineage precursor to Taforalt probably being around 30-40kya just what is this brand new Takarkori North African lineage? [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb]But the key here is distinguishing "Eurasian" DNA signatures from Africa that are ancestral to actual Eurasian lineages in Europe. Otherwise, the concept of ANA would kind of be pointless as again, the movements of populations in and out of North Africa over the last 50,000 years would make identification of such a thing rather arbitrary. I would fully expect such an ancestral population to carry some novel lineages that are today only found in Eurasia. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/423079v1 [/qb][/QUOTE]This makes perfect sense actually I suppose it's true of the reverse also very old Eurasian populations carrying DNA from Ancient Africa.
