[QUOTE]Originally posted by Antalas: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: And pray tell what false information have I provided?? You are the one who has constantly been either providing false information OR distorting what the data says. Even your arguments are inconsistent, with you claiming that Nubians are black in some threads and then not black in others! [b]LOL[/b] You are a typical North African suffering from identity crisis and your distorted identity is projected on to other Africans who have nothing to do with you![/QUOTE]Here are your lies : [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: That percentage is FALSE and comes from a distortion of an autosomal study done by Dr. Sarah Tishkoff et al. (2004). In that study it was found that the Amhara, the dominant ethnic group in Ethiopia, has 40% Eurasian admixture. The Euronuts then spun it to mean that all Ethiopians are 40% Eurasian, then they spun it further to say that all Horn Africans are 40% Eurasian. Some have even increased the number to 50% and some even 60%! [/QUOTE]Saying that it comes from Tishkoff et al. 2004, saying that Amhara are only 40% while they are at almost 50%, implying that 40% is the upper limit and saying that 50% or 60% can't be reached. I have not been inconsistent in any way, as I never suggested or clearly stated that Nubians constituted a homogeneous ethnic group. Therefore, it is true that lower Nubians were not black, while southern "Nubians" were (this situation persists today). Meanwhile you said "black" is only a "color descriptor" yet talked about "black ancestry and features" (I already took a screenshot of your answer so it's useless to edit it). [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: First of all, what I cited was the older [b]Tishkoff[/b] study not Pickrell! Second, the main groups in the Horn are the Oromo and Somali! Amhara are 2nd main group in Ethiopia, while Oromo are the majority. Somali are the 3rd largest in Ethiopia in the Ogaden provence but then you have Somalia proper. The Tigray who have the highest Eurasian admixture are found in Eritrea. Which proves my point that Eurasian ancestry increases the closer you are to the Red Sea coast! So where am I wrong??[/QUOTE]Look how you try to save yourself now XD From "Amhara, the dominant ethnic group has 40% eurasian admixture" to "Somalis in Ogaden" XD Even Somalis can score more than 40% here some example : [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/8KXqfUF.jpg[/IMG] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: According to the chart you posted I was correct. But of course the mind that's twisted, twists all. By the way as I noted to Brandon, there is still a debate as to exactly how how much of this "Eurasian" ancestry is truly Eurasian. As an example, the initial Mota genome study had a significant error exaggerating the Eurasian influence going as far as to say that Southern African Khoisan are predominantly Eurasian, but even YOU kept citing that mistake. So who is really lying here? [/QUOTE]You aren't correct at all since most people in the Horn have more than 40% eurasian admixture. You were also wrong when you stated that no horner plot closer to europeans than west africans. And it doesn't matter how much you desperately try to make this eurasian component a local one. The component can be 100% african with zero south arabian introgression and even in that case, most Sub-Saharan African populations would still lack it, and the component would still share more genetic similarities with a true Eurasian component. It's over drop the case. Morphologically they plot with eurasians (including europeans), genetically they are much closer to eurasians (including light skinned north africans like me) and they have substantial eurasian ancestry. The Nubian Kadruka/Kulubnarti samples had also the same amount of eurasian ancestry if not more in the case of Kulubnarti so let's not even start with ancient egyptians further north. [/QB][/QUOTE]
