[QUOTE]Originally posted by Antalas: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Askia_The_Great: [QB] [b]@Antalas[/b] You nor the data you posted are still not explaining why the descendants of Natufians(Levant_Chl) are showing very little of this component. The studies you posted are not addressing the real issues. They are only referencing the same position that we already know. However, let's say that this component is some ancient Eurasian component, at the end of the day it would've been absorbed by the local populations in Northeast Africa. [QUOTE]Our high-resolution phylogenetic dissection of both haplogroups and coalescent time assessments suggest that the extant main branching pattern of both haplogroups arose and diversified in the mid-later Upper Palaeolithic, with some sub-clades concomitantly with the expansion of the Iberomaurusian industry. [b]Carriers of these maternal lineages have been later absorbed into and diversified further during the spread of Afro-Asiatic languages in North and East Africa.[/b][/QUOTE][URL=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3582464/]Divoricing the Late Upper Palaeolithic demographic histories of mtDNA haplogroups M1 and U6 in Africa[/URL] So, what is the point in really bringing up 35k year old supposed Eurasian ancestry(not denying Eurasian ancestry entered Africa around that time), when it was most likely absorbed by the time of the Neolithic period? As for Neanderthal ancestry? Okay, IAM most likely absorbed Neanderthal ancestry from southern Europe most likely. Yet what about Northeast Africa? Which if I remember correctly almost show NO Neanderthal ancestry if at all... Especially Horn of Africans.. The dark green component almost peaks in Horners, if this is the case why don't Horners show Neanderthal like ancestry? Same with Egyptians/Sudanese? I agree with certain posters(don't want to say their names in case of misrepresenting their position) that in the future we will see a split in Northeast and Northwest African indigenous ancestry, but that's a story for another time. All in all, you are not focusing on the big elephant in the room in that Israel_C profile is not showing very LITTLE of this dark green component. The same Israel_C profile which would more than likely be the descendant of the Natufians. If this component in fact came from Eurasia, then it would've easily peaked in the Israel profile. Instead, we are not seeing that. [/QUOTE]Israel_C were not purely natufian nor predominantly natufian and other factors could be at work here. Neanderthals were not in Africa so how did Upper Paleolithic north africans ended up with it if there were no eurasian back migrations back then ? The idea that this genetic component was "absorbed" is purely speculative and based on your assumptions. There is no supporting evidence, and given the low levels of demography at the time, even a small band of hunter-gatherers could have had a significant genetic impact. Reality back then was more complex than what you guys are proposing. [/QB][/QUOTE]
