Is that your proof??? A few lines and dots and we are suddenly Caucasoid. Solid concrete evidences right there. Most of the replies exposed that so called study as nothing more than eurocentric trash

The replies were refuted on the forum. If you cannot read a graph, ask for help.

Studies say we are closer to Europeans and Middle Easterners than those from the Congo Basin. Which is true. It's why we are E3b and J1 instead of E3a. It explains why we speak an Afro-Asiatic language and not a Bantu one.

Where is your proof?

Somalis are a diverse group of people. Genetically we are different to other Africans BUT we are closer to them than we are to Arabs or Europeans.

Wallahi, this is a waste of time. I'm merely humoring you now.

Can you quote where it states that in that article or in any peer reviewed study?

I truly believe i am a descendant of Cleopatra and Anthony! Why else or how else to explain my beauty and that of elite somalis?

"The northeastern-African -- that is, the Ethiopian and Somali -- populations are located centrally between sub-Saharan African and non-African populations... The fact that the Ethiopians and Somalis have a subset of the sub-Saharan African haplotype diversity -- and that the non-African populations have a subset of the diversity present in Ethiopians and Somalis -- makes simple-admixture models less likely; rather, these observations support the hypothesis proposed by other nuclear-genetic studies (Tishkoff et al. 1996a, 1998a, 1998b; Kidd et al. 1998) -- that populations in northeastern Africa may have diverged from those in the rest of sub-Saharan Africa early in the history of modern African populations and that a subset of this northeastern-African population migrated out of Africa and populated the rest of the globe. These conclusions are supported by recent mtDNA analysis (Quintana-Murci et al. 1999).[15] "//

Acording to The Journey of Man, the skinnies broke off from the 13 other African population groups quite early (180,000 ?). Part of this group then left africa across the mouth of the Red Sea about 70,000 years ago, settling the rest of the world; so that Somalis and other skinnies are MUCH more closely related to Arabs, Jews, Amharas,Europeans, etc, than to any of the other African population groups. They are the source of both the Asian and European groups.
