[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb] The other problem is we still have folks using the term "sub saharan" in discussions of ancient populations in and outside Africa. Namely because African features are not limited to Sub Saharan Africa and never were. Only confuses the issue even more especially since this term has a lot of baggage associated with it coming from the old Eurocentric racist schools of anthropology.[/qb][/QUOTE]I know how you feel. The term "sub-Saharan" often does go hand in hand with the fallacy that all the dark-skinned indigenous African people live south of the Sahara, whereas the North is all Arabs or Berbers. On the other hand, I believe that when certain people [i]here[/i] use "SSA", they're using it as a convenient and familiar catch-all label for any African ancestry that isn't pre-OOA. And I for one am too damn tired of terminological squabbling to argue with anyone about it. It's not like the underlying relationships are going to change anyway. [/QB][/QUOTE]
