[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by beyoku: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Big O: [qb] Determining a genetic relationship is not the same as determining a person or people's phenotype. aDNA does not give information about what a person looks like, just assumptions. The osteological remains are what determine really how a person or people looked. 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? That West African or SSA NC speaking populations migrated from their region into Khemet during antiquity? Or does it suggest that so called West, South, Central Africans originated in Northeast Africa, and dispersed? aDNA will never answer that question without context as Ausar points out. [/qb][/QUOTE]aDNA DOES indeed provide information on a persons Phenotype. There are genes for Eye Color, hair Color, Hair thickness, Teeth Shape, Skin Color, Hair morphology, [URL=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8375984/]and a host other physical features relating to face morphology as detailed here.[/URL] aDNA CAN tell you were a person "Came from". I am E1b1a1g1a1a1a, its quite clear that ancestor "Came from" Africa. We can compare my highly derived lineage to more basal ones like E1b1a* and E1b1a1* and look a the diversity of these lineages to trace the migration path of Y-chromosomes and Mtna. My Maternal marker is L0a1a2, its quite clear we can go back to L0a1a > L0a1 > L0a > L0 and see how this lineage originates somewhere in the South African to East African Rift Valley Corridor. [/qb][/QUOTE]Stop it. aDNA is useless in determining one's race. Just because aDNA can provide information on a persons Phenotype it can not identify the race of the person whose teeth or bones are found at an archaeological site. The genes for Eye Color, hair Color, Hair thickness, Teeth Shape, Skin Color, Hair morphology, and etc., can not tell you the race of a person because different races can have similar phenotype.

Genome fails to tell you the geographical origin of a person since it only tells you the haplogroup possessed by an individual excavated at an archaeological site. It is the artefacts associated with a site that tells where the inhabitants of a tomb originated. In general, a genetic basis for "Race" Does not exist. [/QB][/QUOTE]
