[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by beyoku: [qb] 1 - They are mainly RECENT migrants from the Near East containing ancestry that is much different from the African Natives. Different from what would be found in the Earlier or southern dynasties. (they have mostly bronze age levantine ancestry)[/qb][/QUOTE]Like you said, obtaining more Y-DNA haplogroups from this sample would shed more light on these mummies' ancestry. But looking at the ADMIXTURE charts, the three Abusir-el-Meleq mummies' ancestry seems to resemble Levantine people from the Bronze Age than the Neolithic (the latter almost all lack the cyan Iranian-like component). So while I'm not ready yet to write off the entire sample as all recent foreign migrants, I do believe a significant chunk of their unambiguously Levantine-like ancestry can be traced to Bronze Age rather than Neolithic movements.
