[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: are you legitimately saying that Neanderthal ancestry came with the SSA ancestry in Taf? [/QUOTE]Why can't SSA-related ancestry pick up Neanderthal? There is absolutely no reason why it can't. I'm not saying that this is what happened. I'm saying that if you're going to pinpoint NE African ancestry as the culprit, I want to see how you narrowed it down to that. [QUOTE][b]No, What I'm saying is that the portion of ancestry shared with other Africans should directly correlate negatively with neanderthal[/b]. I have no reason to believe otherwise. [/QUOTE]In order to make that argument, you have to prove that African ancestry is involved in that disproportionate Neanderthal to begin with. That's [i]your[/i] argument and you should flesh it out properly. You can't make a leap from disproportionate Neanderthal, to saying NE African failed to lower it. The evidence you've posted is not sufficient to make that claim. For instance, you have not ruled out that U6-linked ancestry is responsible. [QUOTE]Contribute? probably, I guess... but we're talking about Basal Eurasian, this isn't about minor contributions to reduction in neanderthal admixture... these are the "people" who were responsible for ~30% ancestry in caucus and Iranians [b]yet brought down their neanderthal proportions to numbers comparable and even less than these Maghrebis and modern north Africans[/b][/QUOTE]So, how do you know Basal Eurasian didn't bring down Taforalt Neanderthal? You don't know that it didn't, and the evidence you posted is not saying that it didn't. All you've done is post evidence of a disproportionate Neanderthal in Taforalt. We don't have a pre-E-M78 Taforalt sample, so you can't prove E-M78 people didn't lower Neanderthal when they arrived in the Maghreb. [/QB][/QUOTE]
