[QUOTE]Originally posted by Oshun: [QB] While I can't speak with certainty for all SSA with traces of vivid blue, if anyone remembers the Mauritania sites, the Soninke originally migrated from more northern areas of Africa. Which means it's likely that at least some of the Mande would've had at least a little contact with northern Africans. It's believable that they would have traces of Near Eastern ancestry. One question I have which was interesting for the Mandinka is, why don't they have more of these colors as well? You would think, that having lived originally in the northern parts of the Sahara, they would look like modern MENA, but they do not. Instead it looks like they were leaving for SSA and lacked enough time to make much contact. That, or mixing with local SSA has dramatically changed them at a genetic level from their ancestors. I forget what the Taforalt looked like, but I don't think they resembled modern MENA very well. So I'm not sure if I could say that this was just a matter of genetic discontinuity among the Mandingo.
