[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mansamusa: [qb] So in the PC plot, they provide a graph which shows that a primitive cattle (Bos Primigenius) Known as Th7 from epipaleolithic Morroco clusters with ancient Levant Neolithic and later Levant ancient domesticated cattle (Bos. taurus), while occuppying the same corner of the graph as modern African cattle. These cluster of cattle are closer to modern African cattle than they are to modern near East cattle: [IMG]https://i.ibb.co/D73Q8QG/Cattle-1.png[/IMG] So let me get this straight: 1.) The first farmers of the Middle East in the southern Levant have a genetic component which is older in North Africa (ANA) than in the Levant. 2) The First farmers of the Levan have SSA affinities. 3) The first farmers of the Levant domesticated a breed of cattle whose closest progenitor is from North Africa Conclusion according to the Eurocentrists: "[i]Distinct genotypes and phenotypes in B. taurus cattle native to Africa, such as tolerance of tropical infections, have been attributed to either local domestication or introgression from African aurochs (10, 23). [b]However, ancient Levantine genome affinity with North African aurochs hints that this distinctiveness may have origins in the southern Fertile Crescent[/b][/i]." [qb]Make it make sense! [/qb][/QUOTE]I'm going to have to make time reading the paper, but again the graph that they produce and their contradictory claims do not at all surprise me. In one of my as of now inaccessible files is a study of the skeletal remains of ancient and prehistoric cattle of Africa and phenotypically there was enough of distinction to warrant the classification of a Bos. Africanus or African variant of Bos distinct from the West Eurasian variety that many assume was introduced to Africa. [/QB][/QUOTE]
