You're right that Alindi originated in Southern Somalia, but it was invented by the 0.5ers.

Yes by my Reer Ayeeyo's.

XimanJaale, have you ever seen who weaves the Alindi? It isn't the type of profession a nasab Somali would do.

Dr dameerow stop claiming other people's culture. That is a northern dress. Before 1960, your people had no clothes.

Usheeg doqonkaas xun, kuyee "your people had no clothes", there was an entire industry in Muqdisho that use to make clothes since the 15th century which were sold as far as Egypt.

Lol@before 1960 your people had no clothes. Good Lord, I hope you were joking.

Sadly the nomadic Somalis whom make up the majority of the country think anything industrious is bad thing. For me all Somalis are nasab

I prefer a General Samatar any day for a traitor like Cabdulahi Yusuf.

I think the weavers who made the Alindi were traditionally the Dhardhow people, though I don't know if that's still the case that only they do this anymore.

They made Muqdisho famous for the cloth exported from there

And MSB was a dictator and for he allowed the bubble to burst. He's part to blame for 25 years of the hutu graveyard. So watch what you say !

Abdullahi Yusuf and Ahmed Karaash are thus good examples of individuals who have largely retained the phenotype of the ancestral Afro-Asiatic settlers:




A few more average examples:

LOL @ your pictures. Talk about cherry picking. How about you post pictures of how MOST Somalis look not just the select few you prefer. Ahmed Karaash was nin Dhulbahante. You wanna see him among other dhulbahante and try again. Ahmed Karaash is an OUTLIER. Most of our clan don't look like him. Most are darker and have curlier hair.

Here he is in Taleex.





you see. this is how most Somalis (even in the north) look.



warya qabil kaga mahay tahay? cause i think once we can get that on the record, it can explain the reason you are trying to convolute what is real somali and what isn't. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you are either Warsangeli, Majeerteen or Isaaq. Those 3 tribes seem to be the most virulent in distancing themselves from anything that is actually true Somaliniimo.

aniga wahan ahay Dhulbahante on both sides. And when I was young, I noticed that abbos family looked slightly different than hooyos. Hooyo's family were reer maagaal from Burco while abbos family were reer miyi from outside Taleex. Most of hooyo's reer were lighter skin brown (the type of Somali you seem to prefer) while abbos family were dark skin. So I ask abbo why does our family look different. I have some cousins from hooyo's side that could pass as arab or hindi if they wanted. Well abbo explained it like this. He said that in past, Somalis were big time traders in the Indian ocean. Both sailing to other lands in Arabia and India, but also because many other nations would trade with us. And with trade came intermarriage. He said you had some Somali men bringing women from other lands and some that had ajnabi sailors marry and settle among them. Its reason why most of the pictures you posted are of Somalis are from clans with a history of living near the coast.

Abbo said if you wanna know what the true Somali looks like, go to the bush where the nomads live. Not in the cities along the coast. Once you are among the reer miyi, you'll know what is true Somali and what isn't. Its reason why this video about TRUE Somali culture shows paintings of the baadiye and of Somali men with giant afros like the ones I posted. Check out 1:40. That is what is our real culture and that is how our people uncorrupted by foreign blood look. Not this faux bs you are trying to perpetuate.

You are the one who has pictures like this as their avatar. Some arab looking guy wearing a turban and you have the nerve to argue with me about what is true Somali and what isn't. Walaal that is NOT what Somalinimo is about.

This is Somalinimo.

skinny, dark skin, and with curly hair. and yes this is true even for the tribes in the north. aniga Dhulbahante ban ahay and we are right there at the heart of the warqoyi.

MaliPrince,

You are so desperate to label Somalis dark-skinned and 'black' looking with afro hair texture. Do you get bullied by blacks guys at your workplace or school? Keep bowing down for them you fool. Najis xun

Somalis have diverse hair texture, from curly, wavy and straight. There are some that are borderline nappy/wavy and those Somalis tend to have bantu blood in them somewhere. Somalis also have diverse skin tone such as dark, brown and light-skinned and anything between them all.

Somali's are definied as dark/caramel brown , thin hair, very tall, nice facial structure.
those are true Somali's.

what happened to those people? they hardly exist now. they're all short, light skinned ones have totally jareer features, big nose,lips,crazy hair.

^^ You don't have to wish being 'light skinned', theres products for that now post a thread in the womens section i'm sure it'll be pages long.

First of all, who said anything about nappy or bantu hair. Most somalis have curly hair. Very similar to mixed race blacks and some jews not the bantu africans. Some of the best afros I've seen have been on jews. I know some of you hate to be associated with anything that might link Somalis with the rest of the black race. However, afros are just the natural result of curly hair. I have old pictures of my parents when they were in school in the 1960s and 70s with all their classmates having giant afros. My father said that even the Somalis who didn't have naturally curly hair would mix coke and some other products together to make their hair stiffer so they can pull of the afro. The afro is one of the most quitessiatial somali hairstyles.

I'm actually surprised that posting pictures of Somalis with giant afros is so offensive to you weirdos.

when did being proud of the way MOST OF OUR PEOPLE look become desperate? Most Somalis are dark skin and curly hair. Light skin somalis with the hindi hair are a MINORITY. That is simply the truth. And anyone who is Somali or has visited Somalia knows this.

here are pictures from Buuhoodle, Laascaanod, Taleex, and Boocame (my people). this is how MOST of our people look. you don't have to like it, just don't make up lies.

here's a beautiful video of ciidaamata ogaden showing natural somali hairstyles

don't know what you mean by thin hair but the quintessential somali look is this. tall, thin, dark skin, and curly hair.
