Since early humans were "generalized moderns" until at least the Upper Paleo- and Mesolithic periods (Groves, 2003; Howells, 1995; Cinningham, 2002), haplogroups predating this era became affiliated with the phenotypes that eventually developed wherever carrying populations had migrated by the time race formation took place. A good analogy to the situation with E3a and E3b is that of Q and R. Those two lineages split from M45 in Central Asia at roughly the same time E3a and E3b split from PN2 in East Africa. Q went east and became affiliated with Mongoloids in the Americas, while R traveled west and became affiliated with Caucasoids in Europe. That's analogous to E3a going southwest and becoming Negroid-affiliated in Sub-Saharan Africa, and E3b expanding northeast OOA and becoming Caucasoid-affiliated throughout the Mediterranean Basin.

Hence, the respective Asian and African origins of R and E3b in pre-history, and their relationships to the other two haplogroups, are immaterial to their present racial and genetic affiliations. Indeed, when we look at autosomal DNA, R- and Q-carrying populations -- while genetically distant -- appear even closer to one another than do E3b- and E3a-carrying populations: The average distance between North Africans and Sub-Saharan Africans is 1689 (Cavalli-Sforza, 1994), while the distance between Northern Europeans and Native Americans is only 947 (Ibid.).


Maybe a visual aid will help the Afronuts finally grasp this simple reality:




NOTE 1: Ages for some of the haplogroups were imprecise or unavailable, so they had to be averaged or estimated. For example, M45 is dated 30,000-37,000 YBP, and E3b is dated 26,000-30,000 YBP. A date for R could not be found, so the intermediate between the M45 average and the date for R1 was used. The date for PN2 is also an estimate based on the E3b average.

NOTE 2: All four examples of racial types come from populations bearing 80%+ of the stated haplogroup, with mtDNA that's of the same racial affiliation.

Increasing skeletal evidence from the U.S.A., Mexico, Colombia, and Brazil strongly suggests that the first settlers in the Americas had a cranial morphology distinct from that displayed by most late and modern Native Americans. The Paleoamerican morphological pattern is more generalized and can be seen today among Africans, Australians, and Melanesians. Here, we present the results of a comparative morphological assessment of a late Paleoindian/early archaic specimen from Capelinha Burial II, southern Brazil. The Capelinha skull was compared with samples of four Paleoindian groups from South and Central America and worldwide modern groups from W.W. Howells' studies. In both analyses performed (classical morphometrics and geometric morphometrics), the results show a clear association between Capelinha Burial II and the Paleoindians, as well as Australians, Melanesians, and Africans, confirming its Paleoamerican status.

Thought Writes:

There is no racial affiliation because the concept of race is pseudoscience. What the PN2 transition demonstrates is that ALL Africans share in a common, recent genetic and hence phenotypic heritage that post-dates the migration of the ancestors of Eurasians out of Africa.

Thought Writes:

First you reference E3b and R and then you reference a study by Cavalli-Sforza from a period that predates (1994) the discovery of E3b. All statistical information must be properly textualized. Quoting a source from 1994, years BEFORE the E3b lineage was delineated does not add texture to this process.

Ancient mitochondrial M haplogroups identified in the Southwest Pacific

D. Andrew Merriwether et al.

Based on whole mtDNA sequencing of 14 samples from Northern Island Melanesia, we characterize three formerly unresolved branches of macrohaplogroup M that we call haplogroups M27, M28, and M29. Our 1,399 mtDNA control region sequences and a literature search indicate these haplogroups have extremely limited geographical distributions. Their coding region variation suggests diversification times older than the estimated date for the initial settlement of Northern Island Melanesia. This finding indicates that they were among the earliest mtDNA variants to appear in these islands or in the ancient continent of Sahul. These haplogroups from Northern Island Melanesia extend the existing schema for macrohaplogroup M, with many independent branches distributed across Asia, East Africa, Australia, and Near Oceania.

Ancient teeth and modern human origins: an expanded comparison of African Plio-Pleistocene and recent world dental samples.

Irish JD, Guatelli-Steinberg D.

Department of Anthropology, University of Alaska Fairbanks, Fairbanks, AK 99775-7720, USA. ffjdi@uaf.edu

Previous research by the first author revealed that, relative to other modern peoples, sub-Saharan Africans exhibit the highest frequencies of ancestral (or plesiomorphic) dental traits and, thus, appear to be least derived dentally from an ancestral hominin state. Both methods yielded similar results, which support the previous findings; that is, of all modern human samples,

**sub-Saharan Africans again exhibit the closest phenetic similarity to various African Plio-Pleistocene hominins -through their shared**

prevalence of morphologically complex crown and root traits. The fact that sub-Saharan Africans express these apparently plesiomorphic characters, along with additional information on their affinity to other modern populations, evident intra-population heterogeneity, and a world-wide dental cline emanating from the sub-continent, provides further evidence that is consistent with an African origin model.

Can we get a non-distorted view of the difference between E3a and E3b? I am not an Afro-nut but I really disdain these types of distortions.

We know E3b is East African derived so even from the Cavali-Sforza, 1994, irrelevant data, the distance between E3b and E3a is at the most 529 but that would still be wrong:

Average Distances:

Among North Africans 182
Among East Africans/Saharans 200
Among Sub-Saharan Africans 166

Between North and Sub-Saharan Africans 1689
Between East/Saharan and North Africans 596
Between East/Saharan and Sub-Saharan Africans 529


This data would be incorrect in terms of a E3a and E3b comparison, based on what has been stated, since Sub-Saharan people are more than just E3a. But besides that, E3b itself is Sub-Saharan and we know that North Africans are statistically only 40% African at the most.


Basically you are trying to make an association between Hgs but using data that does not support such associations since the data is based on geographical classifications and not HGs.

Basically your North Africans have a considerable amount of French mtDNA and your Sub-Saharan could have any number of non-Cushitic mtDNA.

You go to all the work but you seem to be lacking in good judgement. Man, what a waste of time.

Because you don't like what it says. The date that E3b was delineated is irrelevant since Cavalli-Sforza's analysis deals with total ancestry (autosomes) and not Y-chromosomes. He finds that North Africans are as genetically distant from Sub-Saharan Africans as Englishmen are. Period. That couldn't possibly be if they were nearly half descended from "Black Africans".

If the Berber cluster of E3b doesn't represent the original "Black African" carriers, then neither does the Greek cluster, which originated in the Balkan peninsula after a long stopover in the Levant. But thanks for admitting that a group of North Africans with ~80% E3b is white. You're finally learning.

Evil Euro's post is chock full of guesswork and frivilous theories which are not supported in the fossil record. It also gives misleading impressions based on his selective representations of what those phenotypes correspond to. For example, why does he put a North African under E3b and put 28,000 years ago when E3b2 the predominant North African paternal lineage has a very recent expansion? It never existed 28,000 years ago in North Africa, neither did Mongoloid types exist in North American 18,000 years ago. I have not seen any geneticist affiliate any of the above said haplogroups to any known racial morphology.


>>>>NOTE 1: Ages for some of the haplogroups were imprecise or unavailable, so they had to be averaged or estimated. For example, M45 is dated 30,000-37,000 YBP, and E3b is dated 26,000-30,000 YBP. A date for R could not be found, so the intermediate between the M45 average and the date for R1 was used. The date for PN2 is also an estimate based on the E3b average.

This is all guesswork and not to be held as an absolute, irrefutable truth. The dates are vailable in publication form.


>>>>>NOTE 2: All four examples of racial types come from populations bearing 80%+ of the stated haplogroup, with mtDNA that's of the same racial affiliation.

Why did you use North Africans instead of East Africans, the source population of E3b? Is it because they're closer to sub-Saharans than North Africans, therefore making the argument that E3b isn't as distant from E3a populations as you would mislead people in here to believe? I'm not going to subject myself to a long pointless discusion with you, at least Dienekes isn't as stubborn and pompous as you are. Since you onsider blacks to be inferior you're never going to subject yourself to an unbiased discussion. If I continue on, you would not like that. I have some experience with genetics and I can tell by your half-baked misreadings of simple charts and plots, you have not the basic understanding of genetics. In the next post I will present such an example.

Example that this racist man cannot read a map Look at plot A


You see Ethiopians in the bottom of the plot, but within the same pole as other Africans. Thats not a surpride, given this map and the fact that non-Africans were used in the comparison. Since Ethiopians share in clades L0-L2 and the non-Africans do not, it makes sense that they would group in the same pole.


Look at this plot that has Africans only


When Ethiopians are compared to other Africans and non-Africans are excluded, we can see how close they actually are and the reality is that they are not that close. Of course when we take all Africans and compare them to the world they're going to be closer to each other. Now some points to remember

*Ethiopians are closer to sub-Saharan Africans than to non-Africans based on the fact that Ethiopians and sub-Saharans have maternal lineages that fall within clades L0-L2, while non-Africans do not. The presence of L0-L2 clades in East Africa and in Ethiopia is not due to mixture with intruding Negroid females. To sum it up, maternally, East Africans are more related to other Africans for the simple fact East Africans share L0-L3 with other Africans and only L3 lineages, haplogroups M and N, appear outside of Africa.

{Molecular Biology and Evolution 18:1864-1881 (2001)

Similarly, the arrival of the east African L2/L3 expansion (60,000 years old) in west Africa by 30,000 years ago (Watson et al. 1997 ) implies a westward migration speed of at least 200 m/year.}

For his theory to be correct that Negroid intruding females mixed with East Africans, that would mean that derived lineages of L2 and L3 that are West and central African specific would have to appear in substanial frequencies in East Africa.

Thought Writes:

What you have presented from Groves is simply an assumption, not a peer-reviewed scientific analysis. Peer review is the accepted method within the scientific community to evaluate any given hypothesis.

Groves assumption is either ill-informed or inconsistent. For example, he claims that "Generalized Moderns" and Sub-Saharan Africans share "no traces of the features that characterise any modern races", yet in a more RECENT, **peer-reviewed** study Joel Irish finds shared phenotypic traits when comparing "Generalized Moderns" and modern Sub-Saharan Africans.

If each race is very heretogenous, then prominent brow ridges does not disassociate **generalized moderns** from the Black "race".

So true, but there's a method to my madness. Check the thread on Y-chromosone variation in Jordan, you'll see exactly where I'm getting at. Sometimes you have to use the logic of your opponents to expose just how faulty that logic is.

Analysis of Y-chromosomes and analysis of autosomes represent two entirely separate approaches. Cavalli-Sforza's study doesn't look at Y-chromosomes at all, so it doesn't require the "delineation of E3b". What a clueless f*cking moron you are.

Thought Writes:

1) If it is an EXPERT ANALYSIS (as in part of the scientfic community) where can I find HIS peer-reviewed study on this issue? Where can I find the statistical indices? Where can I find the population sample information? Where can I find the population size? Where can I find the statistical validity? I can't because it is simply his OPINION. His comment falls outside the standard method of scientific presentation which is peer-review. This may be acceptable base evidence for you, but my bar is much higher.

Yes the Irish study only looks at dental traits. Dental traits are phenotypic traits. Hence if **gereralized moderns** and modern Sub-Saharan Africans share the same dental features they share a common phenotype in this regard. Hence Groves statement that **generalized moderns** share "no traces of the features that characterise any modern races" is inaccurate. As Neves et al and Irish demonstrate Sub-Saharan Africans and **generalized moderns** fall within the same range of variability.

Lets see, if I was EvilE, I would be arguing that E3a is also Caucasoid which would make the entire PN2 clade Caucasian. At the least I would argue that the PN2 clade is Non-Negroid.

For instance, this Tutsi certainly has some interesting features:

Lets play devils advocate. The PN2 clade has traits that makes them closer to Caucasian than Pygmies, San and other various African groups. E3a breaks away from the PN2 clade and mixes with SAN and Pygmies in a south-westward migration which results in various Bantu groups. E3a over a period of time becomes affiliated with the Negroid race because of admixture. The original E3a was no different than Cushitic people which are actually Non-Negroid.

Actually I don't have a big problem with any of this except I don't think the traits overall (which are more than just facial features) of the PN2 clade are actually closer to Eurasians. And even if they were, nobody cares because RACE is a social construct and I am not aware of anyone that considers Somalians or any other Cushite to be Caucasian. They are considered Black and I haven't actually seen the use of Negroid on any census sheet. Essentially you can be Black and mostly Non-Negroid.

Fact is that we just have a racial classification system that has too many double standards and is way to mixed up. I have listened too this dribble for months and I am sick of it.

Have fun but no one can win this debate until you determine a system that has clear definitions that are not debatable.

Is RACE a matter of genetics or a matter of trait similarities? Is it your lineage or your looks?

If we cannot agree to what race is then how the hell can we have a conversation about it. Lame.

As for admixture in Greece:
http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi/abs/10.1034/j.1399-0039.2001.057002118.x?cookieSet=1

HLA genes in Macedonians and the sub-Saharan origin of the Greeks

A. Arnaiz-Villena; K. Dimitroski; A. Pacho; J. Moscoso; E. Go´mez-Casado; C. Silvera-Redondo; P. Varela; M. Blagoevska; V. Zdravkovska; J. Martý´nez-Laso

Department of Immunology and Molecular Biology, H. 12 de Octubre, Universidad Complutense, Madrid, Spain.

HLA alleles have been determined in individuals from the Republic of Macedonia by DNA typing and sequencing. HLA-A, -B, -DR, -DQ allele frequencies and extended haplotypes have been for the first time determined and the results compared to those of other Mediterraneans, particularly with their neighbouring Greeks. Genetic distances, neighbor-joining dendrograms and correspondence analysis have been performed. The following conclusions have been reached: 1) Macedonians belong to the "older" Mediterranean substratum, like Iberians (including Basques), North Africans, Italians, French, Cretans, Jews, Lebanese, Turks (Anatolians), Armenians and Iranians, 2) Macedonians are not related with geographically close Greeks, who do not belong to the "older" Mediterranenan substratum, 3) Greeks are found to have a substantial relatedness to sub-Saharan (Ethiopian) people, which separate them from other Mediterranean groups. Both Greeks and Ethiopians share quasi-specific DRB1 alleles, such as *0305, *0307, *0411, *0413, *0416, *0417, *0420, *1110, *1112, *1304 and *1310. Genetic distances are closer between Greeks and Ethiopian/sub-Saharan groups than to any other Mediterranean group and finally Greeks cluster with Ethiopians/sub-Saharans in both neighbour joining dendrograms and correspondence analyses. The time period when these relationships might have occurred was ancient but uncertain and might be related to the displacement of Egyptian-Ethiopian people living in pharaonic Egypt.


Do we have a problem with this research?

Bitch, you've referenced Groves yourself in the past. Stop pretending as if he's some kind of amateur just because he's saying things that you don't like. His assessments were published in a scientific article for everyone in the scientific community to read and evaluate. They're perfectly valid.

If Arnaiz-Villena's HLA-DRB1 study on Greek-Ethiopian affinities is anything more than junk science, then why has it been rejected by not one, not two, not three, but FOUR world-renowned geneticists? And why have its results never been duplicated by a single other genetic study -- even those conducted using the same HLA genes that Arnaiz-Villena analyzed? This is quite remarkable indeed, but I'm sure the Negroes have a very good explanation. We're all waiting to hear it.

The entire point of your thread was to compare and contrast the Y-Chromosome lineages E3a, E3b, R and Q. I demonstrated that E3a and E3b BOTH post-date the Out-Of-Africa migration of Eurasians. Hence if one defines "Race" as lineage or ancestry then one has to come to the conclusion that Africans who carry the E3a and E3b lineages share in a more recent and common "Racial" bloodline than Africans and Non-Africans. Of course there are abberations such as the Greeks who have substantial Sub-Saharan Y-Chromosome bloodlines.

Hi Evil E

Of course I have referenced Groves in the past. He is indeed a professional anthropologist. What I am questioning is that SPECIFIC comment in a non-scientific format. I am not questioning Groves as a professional. I would never use such non-scientific comment as PRIMARY evidence. It certainly can be utilized to bolster an EXISTING argument. However you have presented NO evidence to build upon with such less substantial evidence. I on the other hand have clearly presented evidence linking **generalized moderns** and modern Sub-Saharan Africans phenotypically. Please see the peer-reviewed studies from Neves and Irish that I have posted in this thread if you have additional questions or need additional study guide material. Thank you.

Imminently reasonable as a criteria for establishing racial affinity: since we know that the racist and facist always appeal to the purity of "blood"; and we know that the hamitic myth postulated that "hamites" were scions of the caucasian/aryan blood line.
Evil Euro's approach is no more sophisticated or scientific than someone who would argue that a dolphin is more related to a sardine than to a mouse.

I was playing devils advocate, you are probably not educated enough to know what that means.

But as far as Tutsi goes, my arguement is that their current appearance is due to admixture with Pygmies. Those lacking this admixture appear like the rest of the PN2 clade - Non-Negroid:

By the way the these features are not that rare amongst Tutsi. Hence why the Europeans classified these people as Hamitic.

Yes, now I remember this post from you. I am sure your types are up in arms. Not that I think this research has much merit but it certainly does indicate that there is a profound relationship between Ethiopians and Greeks. ;-)

How interesting! I am part Black, yes, quite true but then so must be the Somalians since my Ethiopian blood is the same as theirs genetically. So you are a mulatto like me but don't accept your Blackness. Is that because of your Islamic beliefs?

Socially, you are a Mulatto and not Caucasian.

What does Islam has to do with anything he just said, Dumb jew. And do you also know the meaning of the word ''Mulatto'' !? , He isn't a Mulatto.

I am sure you are both mulattos. As far as Islam, don't you all claim to be related to Mohammed? Doesn't seem you guys like the idea of actually being African primarily because of your religious beliefs.

This cannot be extrapolated by looking at Tutsis. Very few Africans are pure E3a, some have A and B. Ethiopians have plenty of A Pygmies have plenty of B. There's no way you can predict what a pure E3a person is going to look like.

I have been to East Africa and I can tell you that many claim to be related to Mohammed. It is really rather nauseating to hear it too.

As for the term Mulatto, simply means mixed race - like you, part white and part black. You simply prefer to think of yourself as being all White. Are you really socially accepted as White? Most people think I am Arabic or Middle Eastern but no one thinks I am White.

Devils Advocate:

Tutsi's are from Ethiopia. Many have mixed with the Hutus and have lost their original PN2 traits. As a consequence E3a has become affiliated with Negroes.
