That's what we've been saying!! We are black and African but NOT jareer/Bantu.

What's so hard to understand about this. We're "black" but a different kind of black.
LOL honestly! idk why somali people automatically think bantu when they hear black african...there are so many different tribes in africa and somalis are one of them, and al of the those tribes are considered "black"...

its the most diverse continent in the world...and were different from one another...we should embrace our differences and celebrate one another instead of putting a bunch of foreigners (non africans...including arabs, and whites) over our people.... i agree phinks this entire thread was a bunch of useless and baseless debates :eat:

I think that MaliPrince is probably a half Somali half Negro American and has been teased by pure Somalis in the past. This could explain his behavior observed on this forum (constantly linking Somalis with Negroids and his insecurity with Caucasoid looking Somalis).

Somalis have been in the west for almost 30 years now. Some of those early mixed bastards can be quite old by now.

Exactly abaayo! Africa IS the most diverse continent in the world and I have nothing but love for my African brothers and sisters. I would proudly stand with Africans against all other races but Somalia MUST come first.

Ethnic groups in Africa number in the thousands, each generally having its own language (or dialect of a language) and culture.

To categorise all these groups as the "same" would be retarded!

Black is a social construct FFS. So is African, it is a bloody continent of diverse people, not a race. Somalis do not all have a common paternal ancestor, some of us are closer to most other Horners whereas the jury is out on others including myself. Just because we all share genes because of centuries of mixing does not mean we all have the same ancestry. Eff nationalism, regionalism or belonging to some made up 'Black' identity.

I love how before I posted it, it was about how we share no link to the Bantu. Now that I've posted evidence of a MATERNAL DNA link between Somalis and the KIKUYU Bantu, its about us being "distinct from West Africans and South Africans."

Talk about moving the goal posts.
That study had Somali Bantu and Benaadiri Swahili, Bajuuni etc samples taken from a refugee camp in Yemen. It even says so in the study that they had some Bantu samples. They carry some maternal lineages I have never seen on the +60 confirmed ethnic Somalis on 23andme (a genetics platform). Even though, with jareer samples they had collectively like 40% non-African M/N.

This study is more representative of ethnic Somali mtDNA, as they took in Copenhagen, Denmark with mainly ethnic Somalis:

you must be challenged when it comes to reading comprehension. the copenhagen study is basically the same as the one I cited. I don't think a 5% difference is much to write home about.
The majority (60.5 %) of the haplotypes were of sub-Saharan origin with L0a1d, L2a1h and L3f being the most frequently observed haplogroups. This is in sharp contrast to previous data reported from the Y-chromosome, where only about 5 % of the observed haplogroups were of sub-Saharan provenance.
This study says Somali mtDNA is still 60% haplogroup L. The other one had it at about 65%. Either way, the majority of our maternal ancestry is African.

Somalis are simply native Horn Africans with some ancient ties to Nilotics and Egyptians & Levantines. Their closest genetic cousins are other Cushites (Oromo etc.), then Ethiosemities (Amhara etc.), and then Nilo-Hamites (Samburu etc). That's it. Deal with it.
That's what I've been saying the entire time bro!

What's with these trolls MaliPrince and Saxony trying to ignore the obvious? We are native Horn Africans and we aren't the same as Bantus!

This is obvious to even Somali children. There's nothing even debatable about this.
not exactly. For a while you were pretty determined in trying to say Somalis are just like the Morrocans and Libyans.

Bro, he actually does agree with me. He's just trying to pick some small disagreement based on some minor technicalities just to try and confuse people reading this thread.

He totally agrees with everything (or almost everything) that I've said on this thread.

Before he sounded intelligent. Now he's just trolling.

He knows Somalis aren't the same as Bantus
I guess the best way to end this thread is to finally agree. Somalis are not exactly the same as Bantus. Are you happy?

Yes it is important when they acknowledge that they had Bantu samples included and blatantly Bantu lineages like L1c and L3e were documented. Those are *NOT* Somali lineages and I have never seen those on ethnic Somalis on 23andMe.

Notice nobody in the large Denmark study had those.

Hence, we can conclude that the Danish study is more truthful on Somali maternal ancestry.

I have no problem with this. But I think our friend TheMailMan does. He's made it pretty clear he doesn't like the word "black."

Thats fine with me. I wasn't going thru the different L clades with a fine tooth comb.

The essentials however remain true.

Bantus are far and away the largest black african group though. That is why they are first on peoples minds. Also they have a large prescence outside of Africa (primarily in the Americas). You don't see that in the Cushitic speaking, Nilotic speaking, or Khosian speaking black african groups.

If Cushites were the predominant group in Africa, then people would associate blackness with us.

MaliPrince no point dealing with these fools, they think the more 'mixed' the more they go uo the genetic pool.

Look at this Itrah niggah, proud that his maternal side is effing middle-eastern. Your black ass will always be black.
