Man almost every ethnicity outthere is mixed to some extent.. Nobody is 100% anything.. but Iman is 100% african because she lives in Africa and because majority of her admixture can only be found in Africa.. I dont agree that she is 100% negro (No africans ethnicity is 100% Negro not even the nilotes) but she is 100% AFRICAN lol. Theres a difference. Would you say that a person who carries 75-80% African DNA and 10-15% Foreign DNA is mixed? She got her looks because of where she came from and not because of some ancient Arabic patriarch or whatever. Small amounts of foreign admixture should not even be mentioned when we are talking about looks. IP: Logged |

Saang, I feel that many of these genetic studies are very biased and slanted. Neither really take in consideration historical or personal data from the people they are testing. You have every right to dispute these findings. Most genetic tests are only as good as the people sampled or sample size. Remember most tests don't tell us about ancient history but really about recent migrations. Saang, since you are a indigenous Somali I suggest you take action and find Somali geneticist or just random European geneticist and question their results. If you can collect samples of Somalis and publish them in a journal. IP: Logged |

Keep in mind that Ethiopia controlled the Red Sea before the Islamic renaissance. Aksum also controlled much of what is now Yemen. Arabs were just tribal nomadic people fighting amongst each other for water rights while Aksum was building monumental palaces and churches. And of course, there was us Jews amongst these Ethiopians but we were a minority group and served a religious purpose. Most of these Jews became your first Coptic Christians and the rise of Christianity in Ethiopia brought about several great dynasties. These Ethiopians would have traded with people up and down the Red Sea which would have included Somalia. IP: Logged |

I have seen footage recently on the Travel Channel of rural African tribes and many of the women there look a lot better than most African Americans I've seen who are of mixed descent!! This is the kind of mentality that sadly many Asians have nowadays. There are Asians that are trying to aquire more 'Western' looks and so many, mainly women, are getting plastic surgery to get more 'caucasian' looks! You can't imagine how ashamed I am to hear how one of the main reasons why many Filipina women are marrying white guys is to have "beautiful children" like pure Filipino children are not as good looking?!

Osirion. Keep in mind that there is no written history on somalis that is older than approximate a thousand years. This means that modern day somalia was even controled by the Abyssinian kingdom at one point. Somalis cluster with Oromo's and Afars of Ethiopia and the Beja of Northern Sudan way more than they do with the Habesha of both Eritrea and Ethiopia (Tigrinya, Amhara, Tigray etc..).. Some Somali clan can trace their lineage to one arabic patriarch who came to spread Islam to the inhabitants of modern day somalia and married some native Oromo women.. while others are direct descendats of the Oromo (this includes the Rahanweyn clans who speak a language that is different than somali).. One of these clans (the Darood Clan) Traces the origin of its patriarch to Yemen..There is another tribe called Ishaaq.. I am not sure about where they trace the origin of their patriarch but I know that he is burried in the northern City of Erigavo and there is even an ancient tomb that is built for him in that city.. Darood is burried in Heylaan which is also a northern city and his grave is guarded by some of his alleged descendants.. All I know is that it can impossibly be a coincidence that these men are burried in the northern somali coast. And that some Oromo traditions correlate with some parts of Somali Oral History.. It is important to say that none of these clans consider themselves arabic in any way.. Nor do they argue that they are mixed since most likely Darood was a southern Yemeni and therefore already mixed with Ethiopian.. and one arabic patriarch does not make you arabic.. but if it was up to me, I would have some1 dig up those graves and take some DNA samples!!

What is the point though? She is black because she has medium to dark brown skin. She is African because she and her ancestors have PREDOMINANTLY AFRICAN blood in them. Therefore she is a black African, period, mixed, unmixed or otherwise. AMR1, since when did black have anything to do with anything OTHER than skin color and being from Africa. If you have dark brown skin and are from Africa, you are a BLACK AFRICAN. What part of that don't you understand? I know, don't answer the question. Bring up useless stories about relatives, aunts and uncles, religion, politics and any other B.S. that you want. I JUST WANT SOMEONE TO STOP THE B.S. AND SHOW ME HOW A DARK BROWN SKINNED AFRICAN IS NOT A BLACK AFRICAN AND SHOW ME THE EVIDENCE THAT BLACK DOES NOT MEAN BROWN SKINNED PERSON FROM AFRICA. IS THAT HARD? Stop playing dumb games and beating around the bush. Black means black skin and African ancestry and has nothing to do with religion, culture, politics, buying, selling, running, walking, waking up, going to sleep, standing up, sitting down, eating dinner, washing clothes, reading a book, watching TV, going to the movies, wondering out loud, acting goofy, being serious, talking trash, thinking up stuff, acting silly, being retarded, cutting farts, stinking, shaving your head, feeling down, acting a clown, beefing up, slowing down, running around, walking straight, showing the way, bringing the light, beating the game, swimming upstream, beating the odds, running the gauntlet, splitting hairs, ironing out fabric, beating stones, touching your toes, scratching your ass, licking a stamp, ripping a page, screwing your wife, going to a funeral, graduating from college, waking up dead, understanding relativaty, making up spam, drawing out maps, digesting a sandwich, leafing through a magazine, shooting at the stars, blowing up bombs or anything else................................................................................................................................................................................ ...................................................................................................................................................................................

Sanaag; Our awoowes didn't even know what bantus were they knew about the slaves they shipped, they just called them adoon. LOL Suddenly all these people who have never stepped foot in Somalia are acting as if they know us. If it makes anybody feel any better we are full 100% Dinka, Bantu, Black whatever you like. Just don't expect us a Somali in real life to take you seriously. For those people who think that Somalis are some atypical group and that all Africans are together, you got issues. The only Bantu my ancestors in came in contact with were the ones they shipped of Zaylac which is the northern coast, my great great grand father was a governor there, so if you call that contact between group. So let me get this right, a few internet flunkies think they know more about Somalis than an actual Somalis. LMAO IP: Logged |

The "Table of Nations" scene in the Ramses III tomb (KV 11) was painted by the ancient *royal artists* themselves and thus it presents undeniable objective evidence of how the African people of Egypt chose to present themselves in this scene. There are black skinned images of ancient Egyptians in every major period and in every region of the country, but only in tomb KV 11 do the Egyptians present themselves as *completely identical* in skin tone AND attire to other black Africans (Nubians). These KV 11 images stunned Euro-American scholars and writers who have tried to falsely separate the Egyptians from other black Africans. The Sethe/Lepsius reproduction version of the "Table of Nations" is ACCURATE in both the representation of the images and the positioning of the texts - Professor Ampim Well 1 Arm, you can change the subject, but can you address the evidence?
