[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Big O: Determining a genetic relationship is not the same as determining a person or people's phenotype. [/QUOTE]Again, being able to determine kinship is useful for Khametic Studies unless you think unless you think the sole purpose of Khametic studies is "race" determination [IMG]https://incredibilia.ro/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Ramses-si-Pentawer.jpg[/IMG] Both mummies were predicted by the STR-predictor to share the Y chromosomal haplogroup E1b1a1-M2 and 50% of their genetic material, which pointed to a father-son relationship [QUOTE]Originally posted by Big O: Also aDNA does not tell you where you ancestors came. It is nothing more than assumption. For example E-M2 found in Ramses and son suggest what? [/QUOTE]It strongly suggests his male side was African Had it been haplogroup J that would be suggestive that his ancestry was Arabian peninsula or Levant since there is more diversity and frequency of J there. Similarly if it was haplogroup T or some other haplogroup it could have been suggestive of ancestral origin outside of Africa, if not ambiguous. However his YDNA was E-M2 and that is strongly of African origin and other E-M2 carriers today are related Ramesses or Pentawer could also have been of the African haplogroups A or B and that would have other implications. So how can that be useless information? [/QB][/QUOTE]
