Ancient genome from Africa sequenced for the first time

[Ajackson17]

Interesting, while my sister is only 89% African it goes to show the story gets deeper. This is how we all have neanderthal genetics and they found that neanderthal genetics is the reason shows a lot of horrible mutations and diseases.

So what event happened that literally brought all of these folks to the continent and merged within our populations, I think we need to see a political and military in the region at that the time. It was the Assyrian and Hittite powers and also could be Minoans descendants and possibly earlier settlers of Canaanites.

I have to do some more research on this but it seems like some of this coincides with the story of the wandering tribe of israel

Well, from their dates it appears Israel wasn't even a nation until later.

The Ancient Israelites settled the land of Canaan sometime between 1300 and 1200 BC. They traced their descent to a nomadic clan chief called Abram, several centuries before, who had migrated to Canaan from Mesopotamia. His descendants had then migrated on to Egypt.

3000+ years sounds about right

 

[Ajackson17]

That was canaan but they are talking about horn of africa not canaan.

But the nation wasn't formed under a kingdom not until around 900s bce according to the bible.

all things considered aside from the years of the time of nationhood being developed you do still see some similarities in the story which coincide.

People migrate all the time and all people do that. This is why this isn't a big surprise to me and goes to show black folk love white people in ancient times.

People do migrate all the time but a mass of people to one area without any geographical reasons is questionable and I wouldn't necessarily call them white folks.

i got an old plane ticket that shows i came from africa

They are Eurasian and from the area where white skin and blue eyes descend from. The middle east produced those characteristics and went up into Europe. Also, google those who the article said they are closest genetically look like.

Also, research the berbers their Y haplogroup is African within the continent and their X is Eurasian women.

Interesting. This makes me even more curious of the exact causes(s) of the Eurasian backflow since the impact is apparently much greater than I thought.

One thing I love about the sequencing of ancient genomes, is that it unsheathes misconceptions and pokes holes in the insularity that accompanies the oversimplified compartmentalization of the differences within and among human populations.

Obviously, these days the findings of any genome analysis illustrates the remarkable presence of human genetic variation.

so from one guy they've gone from saying 5% to 25%? One guy's genome? I would like to know how the math on this changes so much from one person.

-By comparing the ancient genome to DNA from modern Africans, the team have been able to show that not only do East African populations today have as much as 25% Eurasian ancestry from this event, but that African populations in all corners of the continent -- from the far West to the South -- have at least 5% of their genome traceable to the Eurasian migration.
