Somalis don't claim to be descendants of Arabs. At least not all of them!PureQ wrote:One claims to be the descendent of Arabs and consider themselves as Caucasians.

I dont know, perhaps omotic slaves got absorbed into the population for hundreds of years. Oromos were also slave ownersthegoodshepherd wrote:Hararboy, what makes Oromo Amhaha and Tigray look like that is the omotic admixture present in them. Cushitic and semetic people have between 40% to 50% non-african composition. Their mixing with Omotic groups is why they look like that.
Oromos probably had the same population as the Somalis a long time ago, but because the Gaada system/ideology promted population warfare in newly acquired fertile land in the highlands, they quickly bred like rabbits. Oromos had this tactic like the bantu expansionists where any land they sucessfully invaded, they would hunt and kill all the original highlander men and boys in the region take multiple wives from these highlander ethnic groups like the Gurage, keep them as sex slaves, then have 20 children with their slave wives and oromise the children, then teach the system to the older boys so then they could repeat the cycle and eventually whole regions would be Oromised. Its basically ethnic cleansing..GubanOgoJSL wrote:So the whole ethiopia is somewhat all mixed with oromo that means oromos are the chinese of east africa
I wouldnt know, Im not Gurage, but I suspect they were affected. The Oromo expansion destabilized the whole region, from Iaaqs Somaliland to western Ethiopia.GubanOgoJSL wrote:What about gurage are they mixed with oromo and some of somali men marry oromo too.
