I have no particular study in mind but I hear the claim on Egyptsearch all the time that the majority of Modern Egyptians are not descendants of the ancient Egyptians or if not have very little ancestry descendant of the ancient Egyptians
Now it's time to prove that claim with genetics, that is the challenge

What the study showed is that, Non-Africans are closely related to Egyptians, because those were the likely first Africans to invade the rest of the world.
Therefore, Egyptians are Africans, but Specifically Divergent (Local) from other Africans. Their connection to Non-Africans is Genetic, but I would say it was more likely a bi-directional Genetic Flow between Egyptians leaving Africa and Mixed Egyptians coming back to Africa (Egypt).

I'll say it again, you have to listen
I have no particular study in mind
but I hear the claim on Egyptsearch all the time that the majority of Modern Egyptians are primarily of foreign ancestry, that they are mainly the result of a history of invasions by non-Africans
And it's true Egypt was invaded several times
I'm asking people to prove by genetics that these invasions were to the extent changing the population of Egypt on average to be primarily (50% +) foreign non-Africans, prove that genetically
I'm talking about the majority of modern Egyptian today, is their ancestry more African or more foreign, prove it genetically with data on DNA

A good capsule of Ennafaa's (2011, Fregel co-author) data for our purposes are Tables S5 & S6 with the Figure 4 pie.
Here are TS5 & TS6 with Morocco, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt population frequencies for select mtDNA & nrY Hgs.

Sanchez-Quinto's (2012 with Botigue, Comas & Lalueza-Fox co-authors) Table 1 clearly quantifies their Figure 1.
Here are those charts reordered from inner Africa to Atlantic and Mediterranean North Africa to Arabian Peninsula to European Union Mediterranean countries along with the Canaries.
My Maghreb, Berber, and North African frequencies respect Sanchez-Quinto's assignment of geographic ancestries, which are in his own words, labeled according to the region where the component is the commonest.
How does Sanchez-Quinto's genetic report show support or disconfirmation of the statement Berbers are not primarily African?
His pertinent national samples say * Egypt is not primarily African * Libya is not primarily African * Tunisia is primarily African * S Maroc is primarily African * W Sahara is primarily African * Algeria is primarily African * N Maroc is primarily African.
Above are the African vs non-African SNP frequencies of each selected African nation and grouped views of them as
* an Atlanto-Mediterranean Africa superset * a limited Tamazgha subset, and * a core Maghreb subset.
All three sets refute Berbers not primarliy African. All three sets support Berbers are primarily African.
Sanchez-Quinto's study is focused on North African populations. It attempts to discern Neanderthal genome influx.
Also from the Berbers are not primarily African thread qv.

Please, your question quite clearly arose from yesterday's thread on the Humans Trekked Out of Africa Via Egypt study. You wrote:
quote: Let's see somebody prove with genetics they [modern Egyptians] are 80% foreign
And:
quote: Not including this article do you think modern Egyptians on average for the whole country are more than half non-African or less than half non-African ?
Again, why not contact the authors? Rather than speculating as to whether you think they're wrong, e-mail them. Then let us know what they say. I would suggest that to anyone else who has questions with their findings.
Posted by the lioness, (Member # 17353) on :
Again,
I was inspired by the other thread to do this topic because it reminded me of something people bring up frequently on Egyyptsearch. Hence I have moved the topic to a different forum People say here that modern Egyptians are primarily foreigners to Africa in their ancestry and this is the result of a history of invasions. So I don't need to contact the authors of Tracing the Route of Modern Humans out of Africa by Using 225 Human Genome Sequences because I am interested in articles focused on people coming into Egypt and the makeup of modern Egyptians rather than OOA migrations paper. So you can ask me ten times to contact the authors of the OOA paper and I'm not going to do it. This is a new topic on Egyptian demographic ancestry not AMH OOA I am interested in the raw haplotype data and Tukuler understood this but instead of being concise to the topic he merely copy and pasted a lot of other remarks about berbers and didn't link article titles.
Anyway the info he posted might be applicable to the inquiry
quote:Originally posted by Tukuler:

^^^ O.k. somebody new comes in and there's no article title and link to see what they say about samples for the data etc, that is basic respect to the reader
Anyway the info can be used to answer the question because this is not only authors as in the second post giving percentages African/Non African this has HG frequencies. That is what I'm looking for.
Tukular says this show Modern Egyptians are less than 50% African and the HGs are listed in the left column However for this new thread and any new readers what is required is a break down of what HGs are African and which are not and to go over that again for old readers
Then is needed is the sum total African vs non-African of Egyptians
And if the ancestry of modern Egyptians is even say on average 30% related to specific alleles of ancient Egyptians that could be more than any other group.
-But at the same time they could be a primarily Non-African population but in order to prove that you need to indicate what the foreign haplogroups are if you want to say they are primarily foreign, that is basic and that is not in the thread yet
Posted by tropicals redacted (Member # 21621) on :
^ Seems to me that, rather than getting anything approaching an expert opinion, you'd prefer to muddy the waters. Your raising this topic at this moment in time is everything to do with undermining the results of the paper released yesterday.
If you contacted the authors of the study, they could clarify their methodologies and findings for you, and give you insight into how they arrived at their 80% average. But you know there's a risk that you wouldn't be able to run your sh1t with them. That's why you prefer internet speculation, rather than anything too conclusive. You know how damaging that would be for you, so you're being evasive. It's pretty obvious really.

What makes it partially difficult is that Northeast Africa obviously had outgoing populations. So SNP's found in the region can be due to outgoing as it expanded outside of Africa.
Therefore are being claimed as "so called" Eurasian.

This is exactly what I'm talking about. Tukuler critcized xyyman for altering charts Now the above chart was made from scratch by Tukuler and he has devised his own terminology and consolidations
-and he has not referenced the article title or the Table he interpreted
- Although his compiled figures and terms are fair to the intent of the article
And now Asar Imhotep is asking about it when if the link was there he wouldn't have had to
Here is the full reference, this should have stated in on the Tukular charts as >>
______________________________________
" data compiled from Table 1 of
North African Populations Carry the Signature of Admixture with Neandertals 2012
^^^ Now we have the full citation that makes for easy access to the Egyptsearch readership
And here is the pertinent quote from the article:
quote:
We ran ADMIXTURE for k equal 2 to 7 and obtained CV errors, and determined that the best k (the one with lowest cross-validation error) is k = 4. Results (Figure 1) are coincident with those previously published [17] and show that North Morocco, Libya and Egypt carry high proportions of European and Near Eastern ancestral components, whereas Tunisian Berbers and Saharawi are those populations with highest autochthonous North African component....
The results of the f4 ancestry ratio test (Table 2 and Table S1) show that North African populations vary in the percentage of Neandertal inferred admixture, primarily depending on the amount of European or Near Eastern ancestry they present (Table 1). Populations like North Morocco and Egypt, with the highest European and Near Eastern component (∼40%), have also the highest amount of Neandertal ancestry (∼60–70%) (Figure 3). On the contrary, South Morocco that exhibits the highest Sub-Saharan component (∼60%), shows the lowest Neandertal signal (20%). Interestingly, the analysis of the Tunisian and N-TUN populations shows a higher Neandertal ancestry component than any other North African population and at least the same (or even higher) as other Eurasian populations (100–138%) (Figure 3).....
With the current data, however, it is not possible to discard the ancient African substructure hypothesis [8]. Although ours and some previous results [9] tend to favor the admixture hypothesis as the most plausible one, we think that a complete clarification of this issue can only be achieved with a Neandertal high coverage genome, such as this recently achieved for Denisova [32]. This, and sequencing data of North African populations, especially those with a high autochthonous component, may help elucidate more precisely the interbreeding process with Neandertals. In any case, our results show that Neandertal genomic traces do not mark a division between African and non-Africans but rather a division between Sub-Saharan Africans and the rest of modern human groups, including those from North Africa.
Ok go to Tukular's version of this chart, top of post
he has
EGYPTIAN (modern) =
33% African 19% Berber 67% Eurasian
_______________________
and as corresponding to the
Sánchez-Quinto Table (bolded) >>
EGYPTIAN (modern) =
33% African [ 19% N. Mahgreb + 14% Sub Saharan]
67% Eurasian [37% Europe + 30% Near East]
_________________________
That's a fair interpretation. However it's not the raw haplotype data and these terms have their ambiguities

Nobody had to start alternative threads to express their view. I invited Clyde to park all his stuff here. I didn't personally invite Swenet but he too is for sure welcome to post his viewpoint here (sans annoying distractive gifs that make the thread clownish).
And yes I explicitly wrote when I posted my first analysis that I'm ignoring assignment controversies so as to let the reports as published speak through their raw data.
I noted where authors recognized that a given haplogroup assignment can and does differ from its parent or umbrella macrohaplogroup geography.
A child is not the parent and the reductio ad absurdum argument about lumping all children by their parent's geography ultimately resolves to making them all African.
Strongly opinionated objectors don't care. They only care for their own point of view regardless of attempted objectivity. If they want to broach grandstanding emotionally appealing threads let 'em.
The problem I'm having with autosomals is that of the recent studies I found with pertinent STRUCTURE or ADMIXTURE skylines (Henn, Botigue, Sanchez-Quinto) only the one I posted yesterday clearly delineates geographies.

We know modern egyptians are not the same as the ancient due mostly to post dynastic greek, roman, persian, arab, etc migrations. They are a nice mix of all those people including indigenous Ancient Egyptians (aka black Africans).
Since modern Egypt have a high proportion of African ancestry in their populations, it shows us that the original population was African. Especially considering Ramses III was E1b1a and the DNA analysis of the Ancient Egyptian mummies (JAMA, BMJ, DNA Tribes, etc).

What makes it partially difficult is that Northeast Africa obviously had outgoing populations. So SNP's found in the region can be due to outgoing as it expanded outside of Africa.
Therefore are being claimed as "so called" Eurasian.
The masked likely can be found in older papers by the leading author Luca Pagani.
quote: The presence of three diverse Afro-Asiatic branches (Omotic, Semitic, and Cushitic) makes the Horn of Africa one potential source of this family, although the Ethio- Semitic branch is likely to have originated at a later stage in the Middle East. 23 The Nilotic languages, represented in Ethiopia by the East Sudanic, Kunama, and Koman branches, are more widespread in Sudan, and their presence in Ethiopia is probably the result of recent demo- graphic processes.24 Similarly, genetic studies indicate that a major component of recent Ethiopian ancestry originates outside Africa: for example, half of the mtDNA haplo- types16 and more than one-fifth of Y haplotypes17 found in Ethiopia belong to lineages that, on the basis of phylo- geographic criteria, have been attributed to a non-African rather than a sub-Saharan African origin. These historical admixture events are themselves of interest to historians, anthropologists, and linguists, as well as to geneticists.
Our current study is motivated by four questions. First, where do the Ethiopians stand in the African genetic landscape? Second, what is the extent of recent gene flow from outside Africa into Ethiopia, when did it occur, and is there evidence of selection effects? Third, do genomic data support a route for out-of-Africa migration of modern humans across the mouth of the Red Sea? Fourth, assuming temporal stability of current popula- tions, what are the estimated ages of Ethiopian popula- tions relative to other African groups? In order to address these questions, we generated genome-wide SNP geno- types from Ethiopian individuals.
Given that little genetic information on Ethiopian pop- ulations was available in advance, we sought to analyze a broad sample of 188 Ethiopians from ten diverse popula- tions, chosen from a collection of > 5,000 samples assem- bled by N.B.25,26 The samples genotyped included repre- sentatives of a range of geographical regions and all four linguistic groups (Semitic, Cushitic, Omotic, and Nilotic). For comparative studies, we combined our Ethiopian data with published data from the HGDP27 and HapMap39 projects, as well as more focused studies.28,29 Furthermore, to compensate for the lack of published data of popula- tions immediately surrounding Ethiopia, we additionally genotyped 24 South Sudanese and 23 Somali samples.

Based on sequencing of the mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit II (MT-CO2), and genome wide microsatellite data we observe evidence suggesting the effective size (Ne) of humans to be larger than the current estimates, with a foci of increased genetic diversity in east Africa, and a population size of east Africans being at least 2-6 fold larger than other populations. Both phylogenetic and network analysis indicate that east Africans possess more ancestral lineages in comparison to various continental populations placing them at the root of the human evolutionary tree. Our results also affirm east Africa as the likely spot from which migration towards Asia has taken place. The study reflects the spectacular level of sequence variation within east Africans in comparison to the global sample, and appeals for further studies that may contribute towards filling the existing gaps in the database. The implication of these data to current genomic research, as well as the need to carry out defined studies of human genetic variation that includes more African populations; particularly east Africans is paramount.

Table 1 shows the population parameters and selective neutrality test (Tajima’s D) based on MT-CO2 variation of all continental groups, mean values and test of significance for the obtained values. Tajima’s D (Table 1) scored negative values consistent with human expansion within and outside of Africa (or exchange of alleles between neighboring demes, see discussion below) with satisfactory statistical scores. The transition to transversion ratio of 2:1 in our reported Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) is consistent with being at the root of the gene tree and with neutral evolution distance based analysis using FST for mtDNA sequences and RST for microsatellite data were carried out for subsequent MDS plotting and a population by population correlation comparison using Mantel Test. The result showed no correlation with a P value of 0.66 similar to comparison between mitochondria and Y chromosome variations reported earlier [16].
[...]
The third cluster (C), includes members of almost all world populations particularly non-Africans who share a major haplo- type that seems to have originated within an east African gene pool (Table S1 and Figure 3).
[...]
Mutations and Haplotypes Frequencies in the MT-CO2
The sheer number of haplotypes, a basic measurement of genetic diversity, is also taken as an indication of Ne. As mitochondria are non-recombining the number of mutations and haplotypes is quite correlated. In the MT-CO2 sequence 68 haplotypes were estimated using Arlequin ver3.11 and assigned numbers from 1 to 68. Haplotype relative and absolute frequencies in the studied populations were also calculated. Strikingly, of the total 68 haplotypes, 43 occurred solely in east Africa (Table S1) of which 25 were in Sudanese, 9 in Eritreans and 5 in Ugandans and one Kenyan. The rest of the haplotypes were derived from or included east Africans with exception of 13 haplotypes, 4 in Africa 2 in Australia, 3 in Europe 1 in Arabia 1 America/Africa and 1 Europe/Africa. Of the 42 haplotype defining mutations (Table S2) in Sudanese and Eritreans 11 (26.2%) were non-synonymous (replacements) occurring in trans-membrane domain of COII protein while 31 (73.8%) were synonymous with transitions representing the majority of the mutations. Out of the 42 mutations (Table S2), 31 were previously reported in the literature and 11 were novel. All mutations in Ugandan MT-CO2 samples are synonymous and reported at http://dspace.nwu.ac.za/handle/10394/4221). All published haplogroups associated with the mutations are indicated in Table S2.

Tracing Family Trees, And Human History, With Genetics
Well at least we know that R1b1a2 is only 1 per cent among modern-day Egyptians.
Which means which more than 50 per cent of all men in Western Europe, indicating that they share a common ancestor. And up to 70% of British men, who do not cluster.
Hats off to iGENEA for bolstering their claims.
The above appears to be a downstream of R1b1a or R-V88.

I leave the additional article sources up to you.
I have explained my part, and so did others.
I am sure it was painful to read with I have posted, and it will come at handy when you post the additional article sources. I can assure you. Since ancient Egyptians arose form the South, those citations were particularly important. Since it manifested those regions.
"only 12% i Ottoman Turk", While you're at it , you may want to look up Ottoman Turk gene pool.

quote:The geographic location of Egypt, at the interface between North Africa, the Middle East, and southern Europe, prompted us to investigate the genetic diversity of this population and its relationship with neighboring populations. To assess the extent to which the modern Egyptian population reflects this intermediate geographic position, ten Unique Event Polymorphisms (UEPs), mapping to the nonrecombining portion of the Y chromosome, have been typed in 164 Y chromosomes from three North African populations. The analysis of these binary markers, which define 11 Y-chromosome lineages, were used to determine the haplogroup frequencies in Egyptians, Moroccan Arabs, and Moroccan Berbers and thereby define the Y-chromosome background in these regions. Pairwise comparisons with a set of 15 different populations from neighboring European, North African, and Middle Eastern populations and geographic analysis showed the absence of any significant genetic barrier in the eastern part of the Mediterranean area, suggesting that genetic variation and gene flow in this area follow the "isolation-by-distance" model. These results are in sharp contrast with the observation of a strong north-south genetic barrier in the western Mediterranean basin, defined by the Gibraltar Strait. Thus, the Y-chromosome gene pool in the modern Egyptian population reflects a mixture of European, Middle Eastern, and African characteristics, highlighting the importance of ancient and recent migration waves, followed by gene flow, in the region.

@lioness. To be honest. No. I don't believe Pagani's 80% numbers. Why? For two reasons.
1. 80% implies almost total population replacement. Very unlikely. 2. We have to look at things holistically ie all inclusive. The SNP must corroborate the HG. Most modem Egyptians carry African lineage with an African origin. Male J2 is the only one with Turk/Levantine origin.
So. DNATRIBE numbers for SNP Is more in line with HG and not Pagani's. irregardless, modern Egytptians is the most admixed of modern North African populations!!!
Also, the sample size was unusually small. As one poster asked earlier. Who were the Egyptians sampled? If it were city dwellers vs tribesmen, then that would explain the 80% foreign material.

It doesn't have to be a population replacement. It can be an increase of the segment (population of region wise). Most Egyptians life in urban areas like Cairo. These places also had most foreign people migrating there. Which is an historical fact.
Agreed. The Turks simply had more babies is another possibility. But isn't that also a form of population replacement? But you get my point.

It's also the most logical explanation. Considering the statistics on population density.
44% of the population is urban (36,713,659 people in 2014).
The population more than tripled since the 1950. Going from 25,000,000 to 84,627,891. Centuries ago it was way smaller, only a few million.

Of course you are absolutely correct. But these scientists play games with the facts and will sample a few people in Cairo and claim that those samples represent "all Egypt". Never will you see samples of people from different parts of Egypt just to compare the dna results between populations WITHIN the country. Obviously the DNA of folks closer to Aswan will be different to those closer to Israel. And the DNA of he bedouins in the Sinai different from the Siwa folks in the West of the country. So there would be different clusters of DNA reflecting different population histories in different parts of the country. Not to mention the DNA for folks like the Bedja nomads in Upper Egypt. And this is not acceptable for so-called scientists in the year 2015 to be playing these games where even a lowly non scientific layman can call them on their BS.
But of course this is the whole point. To promote such BS as 'scientific' when it is only really just irrelevant data used to reinforce the nonsense arguments put forward by idiots online who want to pretend to know what they are talking about.
Just think about this and you will see how OBVIOUSLY intentional it is that they DON'T do a comprehensive DNA study across Egypt or ANY North African country. Egypt has been long the site of much European research since Napoleon. It has been debated over in terms of the origins of the ancient Egyptians for hundreds of years. Not to mention it has been identified as one of the routes for humans out of Africa. Yet to this day you don't have a comprehensive study of the DNA across the various population across the entire country. Yet you will keep seeing studies comparing Egyptian DNA, other North African DNA, European and Arab DNA all over the net. So how does that make sense if it isn't intentional. If all populations in Egypt don't have the same DNA cluster then which population are you using as the basis for comparison? And given the population changes over the last 50 years, what does that say about the DNA clusters of folks in Cairo vs isolated population still in and around Aswan or Siwa or in various desert communities? Obviously they don't care about that because they just want to claim that Europeans are close to the ancient Egyptians which is nonsense. The population density maps of ancient Egypt would have been exactly the opposite of what you have today which means the DNA clusters would have been totally different.

This sounds like a response from someone who has never studied anything about the internal migration patterns within Egypt. The great majority of the people in Cairo and Alexandria migrated from the villages to those bigger cities. So, basically, a big city like Cairo has people from all over Egypt, North (Delta Farmers), Upper Egypt, Aswan, Nubians, Gypsies, Bedouins, Copts, and many others. Almost every Egyptian ethnic group has some relatives that live and work in Cairo.
The scientists are actually very smart people and know what they're doing and most of the facts point to a differentiated North African Population that had close affinities to Eurasian before Ancient Egypt, During Ancient Egypt's Dynastic Era, and the same pattern seems to hold true in Modern Egypt as well.
You're upset, because they're Not Related to West Africans. But reasonable People should be able to connect the dots and stop believing in Santa Claus.

So you're saying that regardless of whether the randomly selected sample of 100 in the Pagani study was chosen in Lower Egypt, they would still be representative of the country's population?
You do remember that the average non-African ancestry of the 100 was 80%, don't you?

@Swenet. ??? DNAconclutant and their games...hit me up.
I will walk you through it. Only TWO STR is gives you a preliminary indication of geographic origin. Want me to explain it to you. I did it before but you probably forgot....
=== The genetic characteristics of these loci, such as chromosomal locations, repeat motifs, range of repeat sizes commonly found in different populations, are available in the product brochures of the commercial kits currently validated for such purposes [6, 7]. Several features are clear from the summary characteristics of these STR loci. First, all but two of the 13 STR loci are located on different chromosomes. The two (CSF1PO and D5S818) that are located on the same chromosome are also far apart (CSF1PO is localized to 5q33.3-34 and D5S818 to 5q23.3-32).
Oh! and BOTH STR and SNP agree. indigenous North Africans are just as African as West Africans(Aframs). Notice..Egyptians were NOT included. So, eyeballing does NOT work.

Agreed ,you are the only person who makes sense here.others just want to argue,argue,argue.No progress in understanding,another study will come,then they argue,no conclusions,no progress in knowledge and understanding. Those large foreign DNA in Egyptians can EASILY be explained.There was a total population replacement.Most of the original black population migrated south towards upper Egypt, great lakes,west africa and south east Africa.80% non-african DNA for modern Egyptians is correct.especially for population of Alexandria and Cairo who are descendants of recent migrants.Egyptians of gurna,Aswan and Siwa Berbers are still black and are aboriginal Egyptians.There is no strong evidence ancient Egyptian was afro-asiatic,it was most likely Nilo-Saharan but of course white linguists will not admit it. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM STUDIES DONE BY WHITE PEOPLE WHO HAVE A WHITE SUPREMACIST AGENDA. It is time black people came up with their own studies.

You are a pathetic individual. Ancient Egyptians didn't not come from abroad, the came from inner Africa. We see a decrease at the ending at the dynasties, when invasions took place. You have played your game for 6 years, or even longer, day in day out. And it has brought you nowhere. Your claims only have made you look stupid. And this statement by you is even more so.

Both of these positions are invalid and wrong. Egyptians did not come from West Africa or Inner Africa. They're North- East Africans with some minor Admixture with Other Egyptians who populated Eurasia and comeback to Egypt.
There's some likely chance that Ancient Egyptians did venture into Sub-Saharan Africa, but that does not mean that they're from there.
Ancient Egypt was the Mecca of Knowledge during its Great Zenith, just like Europe and the U.S. are these days and therefore, it would have attracted many people from near and far.

Where did I use the words West Africa, loony toon?
West Africa is a diverse place bwt, with ancient pastoralist populations, who certainly have a connection to Northeast Africa. You hardly can mention 5 ancient Sahara-Sahel populations, yet here you are blaring.
Inner Africa is the South. Ta Sati. The Nile upstream, loony.

There is clear evidence of lithic technological variability in Middle Paleolithic (MP) assemblages along the Nile valley and in adjacent desert areas. One of the identified variants is the Khormusan, the type-site of which, Site 1017, is located north of the Nile's Second Cataract. The industry has two distinctive characteristics that set it apart from other MP industries within its vicinity. One is the use of a wide variety of raw materials; the second is an apparent correlation between raw material and technology used, suggesting a cultural aspect to raw material management. Stratigraphically, site 1017 is situated within the Dibeira-Jer formation which represents an aggradation stage of the Nile and contains sediments originating from the Ethiopian Highlands. While it has previously been suggested that the site dates to sometime before 42.5 ka, the Dibeira-Jer formation can plausibly be correlated with Nile alluvial sediments in northern Sudan recently dated to 83 ± 24 ka (MIS 5a). This stage coincides with the 81 ka age of sapropel S3, indicating higher Nile flow and stronger monsoon rainfall at these times.
Other sites which reflect similar raw material variability and technological traditions are the BNS and KHS sites in the Omo Kibish Formation (Ethiopia) dated to ∼100 ka and ∼190 ka respectively. Based on a lithic comparative study conducted, it is suggested that site 1017 can be seen as representing behavioral patterns which are indicative of East African Middle Stone Age (MSA) technology, adding support to the hypothesis that the Nile Valley was an important dispersal route used by modern humans prior to the long cooling and dry trend beginning with the onset of MIS 4. Techo-typological comparison of the assemblages from the Khormusan sites with other Middle Paleolithic sites from Nubia and East Africa is used to assess the possibility of tracing the dispersal of technological traits across the landscape and through time.

quote: The Origin of the Predynastic: Western Desert and Central Sudan
With the intensification of archaeological research in the Egyptian Western Desert evidence of prehistoric humanoccupation has been consistently found in both the oasesregion and the playas region to the south. Major breaks in the chrono-cultural sequence are related to climaticvariations. After a major arid event during the latePleistocene, which completely dried up the Sahara,forcing the people to cluster along the Nile (and in theCentral Sahara massifs), the Holocene period wascharacterised by better climatic conditions due to anorthward shifting of the monsoon summer rain regime(Kuper and Kropelin 2006; Wendorf and Schild 2001).The desert was again settled, although cyclical minor aridspells required the population to move back and forthfrom the desert to the Nile or to remain in the oases. Fromthe 4th millennium BC another major arid event forcedthe people to concentrate in the oases area and to settlemore permanently to the Nile Valley"

Egypt in its African Context
Proceedings of the conferenceheld at The Manchester Museum,University of Manchester, 2-4 October 2009
"Prior to Europe’s involvement with Egypt, the people of Ancient Egypt had many names for their country such as ‘Ta Mery’ (the beloved land), ‘Ta Sety’ (the land of the bow) which was used for the southern most regions of the country and Nubia (see below). Another name was 'Kemet', which means ‘the black land’. All of these names were originally spelt without vowels, so for example Kmt."
Today, for obvious reasons, the name Kemet is associated with a more African-centred approach to looking at ‘Egypt’. For this reason the gallery that you are currently viewing is called Virtual Kemet. In adopting this name we hope to remind people that the ‘Ancient Egypt’ is an African civilization and that whilst the culture had contact with people from other civilizations, it was essentially African in its culture and well as its geographical placement.
[...]
There are many links between ancient Egyptian and modern African culture, ranging from objects such as headrests to hairstyles such as the side lock, and this and other evidence support the idea that it was an African culture in addition to being geographically in Africa. For these reasons Egypt is seen by people of African descent as part of their cultural heritage and history. The concept of Egypt as part of Africa is not a new one. Some of the earliest travellers to Egypt came from the ancient cultures of Greece and Rome, including Greek philosophers, mathematicians, scientists, writers and poets who came to learn from the priests. To the Greeks and Romans, Egypt was an African country, and their artists depicted the Egyptians as Africans, with black skin and tightly curled hair, described by the Greek historian Herodotos in the fifth century BC as 'woolly'.

quote: The lack of Late Pleistocene human fossils from sub-Saharan Africa has limited paleontological testing of competing models of recent human evolution. We have dated a skull from Hofmeyr, South Africa, to 36.2 ± 3.3 thousand years ago through a combination of optically stimulated luminescence and uranium-series dating methods. The skull is morphologically modern overall but displays some archaic features. Its strongest morphometric affinities are with Upper Paleolithic (UP) Eurasians rather than recent, geographically proximate people. The Hofmeyr cranium is consistent with the hypothesis that UP Eurasians descended from a population that emigrated from sub-Saharan Africa in the Late Pleistocene.

Dental studies put the inhabitants of Gebel Ramlah, closest to indigenous tropical African populations.
"During three seasons of research (in 2000, 2001 and 2003) carried out by the Combined Prehistoric Expedition at Gebel Ramlah in the southern part of the Egyptian Western Desert, three separate Final Neolithic cemeteries were discovered and excavated. Skeletal remains of 67 individuals, comprising both primary and secondary interments, were recovered from 32 discrete burial pits. Numerous grave goods were found, including lithics, pottery and ground stone objects, as well as items of personal adornment, pigments, shells and sheets of mica. Imports from distant areas prove far-reaching contacts.
Analysis of the finds sheds important light on the burial rituals and social conditions of the Final Neolithic cattle keepers inhabiting Ramlah Playa. This community, dated to the mid-fifth millennium B.C. (calibrated), was composed of a phenotypically diverse population derived from both North and sub-Saharan Africa. There were no indications of social differentiation. The deteriorating climatic conditions probably forced these people to migrate toward the Nile Valley where they undoubtedly contributed to the birth of ancient Egyptian civilization."

quote: Evidence from throughout the Sahara indicates that the region experienced a cool, dry and windy climate during the last glacial period, followed by a wetter climate with the onset of the current interglacial, with humid conditions being fully established by around 10,000 years BP, when we see the first evidence of a reoccupation of parts of the central Sahara by hunter gathers, most likely originating from sub-Saharan Africa (Cremaschi and Di Lernia, 1998; Goudie, 1992; Phillipson, 1993; Ritchie, 1994; Roberts, 1998).
[...]
Conical tumuli, platform burials and a V-type monument represent structures similar to those found in other Saharan regions and associated with human burials, appearing in sixth millennium BP onwards in northeast Niger and southwest Libya (Sivilli, 2002). In the latter area a shift in emphasis from faunal to human burials, complete by the early fifth millennium BP, has been interpreted by Di Lernia and Manzi (2002) as being associated with a changes in social organisation that occurred at a time of increasing aridity. While further research is required in order to place the funerary monuments of Western Sahara in their chronological context, we can postulate a similar process as a hypothesis to be tested, based on the high density of burial sites recorded in the 2002 survey. Fig. 2: Megaliths associated with tumulus burial (to right of frame), north of Tifariti (Fig. 1). A monument consisting of sixty five stelae was also of great interest; precise alignments north and east, a division of the area covered into separate units, and a deliberate scattering of quartzite inside the structure, are suggestive of an astronomical function associated with funerary rituals. Stelae are also associated with a number of burial sites, again suggesting dual funerary and astronomical functions (Figure 2). Further similarities with other Saharan regions are evident in the rock art recorded in the study area, although local stylistic developments are also apparent. Carvings of wild fauna at the site of Sluguilla resemble the Tazina style found in Algeria, Libya and Morocco (Pichler and Rodrigue, 2003), although examples of elephant and rhinoceros in a naturalistic style reminiscent of engravings from the central Sahara believed to date from the early Holocene are also present.

[...]
What may be seen at the Badarian sites is the earliest evidence in Egypt of pronounced ceremonialism surrounding burials, which become much more elaborate in the 4thmillennium bc Naqada culture. Brunton excavated about 750 Badarian burials, most of which were contracted ones in shallow oval pits. Most burials were placed on the left side, facing west with the head to the south. This later became the standard orientation of Naqada culture burials. Although the Badarian burials had few grave goods, there was usually one pot in a grave. Some burials also had jewelry, made of beads of seashell, stone, bone, and ivory. A few burials contained stone cosmetic palettes or chert tools.
[...]
Burials such as the Badarian ones represent the material expression of important beliefs and practices in a society concerning the transition from life to death (see Box 5-B).
Burial evidence may symbolize roles and social status of the dead and commemoration of this by the living, expressions of grief by the living, and possibly also concepts of an afterlife.

First off all, Egypt did not even exists during those days, Northeast Africa was just an hub out of many, small pockets of populations from deeper within Africa moved out of Africa via that route and others, loony.
These genetic imprints derived from populations deeper within Africa. SMH 101?
quote: Human genetic variation particularly in Africa is still poorly understood. This is despite a consensus on the large African effective population size compared to populations from other continents. Based on sequencing of the mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit II (MT-CO2), and genome wide microsatellite data we observe evidence suggesting the effective size (Ne) of humans to be larger than the current estimates, with a foci of increased genetic diversity in east Africa, and a population size of east Africans being at least 2-6 fold larger than other populations. Both phylogenetic and network analysis indicate that east Africans possess more ancestral lineages in comparison to various continental populations placing them at the root of the human evolutionary tree. Our results also affirm east Africa as the likely spot from which migration towards Asia has taken place. The study reflects the spectacular level of sequence variation within east Africans in comparison to the global sample, and appeals for further studies that may contribute towards filling the existing gaps in the database. The implication of these data to current genomic research, as well as the need to carry out defined studies of human genetic variation that includes more African populations; particularly east Africans is paramount.
[...]
Table 1 shows the population parameters and selective neutrality test (Tajima’s D) based on MT-CO2 variation of all continental groups, mean values and test of significance for the obtained values. Tajima’s D (Table 1) scored negative values consistent with human expansion within and outside of Africa (or exchange of alleles between neighboring demes, see discussion below) with satisfactory statistical scores. The transition to transversion ratio of 2:1 in our reported Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) is consistent with being at the root of the gene tree and with neutral evolution distance based analysis using FST for mtDNA sequences and RST for microsatellite data were carried out for subsequent MDS plotting and a population by population correlation comparison using Mantel Test. The result showed no correlation with a P value of 0.66 similar to comparison between mitochondria and Y chromosome variations reported earlier [16].
[...]
The third cluster (C), includes members of almost all world populations particularly non-Africans who share a major haplo- type that seems to have originated within an east African gene pool (Table S1 and Figure 3).
[...]
Mutations and Haplotypes Frequencies in the MT-CO2
The sheer number of haplotypes, a basic measurement of genetic diversity, is also taken as an indication of Ne. As mitochondria are non-recombining the number of mutations and haplotypes is quite correlated. In the MT-CO2 sequence 68 haplotypes were estimated using Arlequin ver3.11 and assigned numbers from 1 to 68. Haplotype relative and absolute frequencies in the studied populations were also calculated. Strikingly, of the total 68 haplotypes, 43 occurred solely in east Africa (Table S1) of which 25 were in Sudanese, 9 in Eritreans and 5 in Ugandans and one Kenyan. The rest of the haplotypes were derived from or included east Africans with exception of 13 haplotypes, 4 in Africa 2 in Australia, 3 in Europe 1 in Arabia 1 America/Africa and 1 Europe/Africa. Of the 42 haplotype defining mutations (Table S2) in Sudanese and Eritreans 11 (26.2%) were non-synonymous (replacements) occurring in trans-membrane domain of COII protein while 31 (73.8%) were synonymous with transitions representing the majority of the mutations. Out of the 42 mutations (Table S2), 31 were previously reported in the literature and 11 were novel. All mutations in Ugandan MT-CO2 samples are synonymous and reported at http://dspace.nwu.ac.za/handle/10394/4221). All published haplogroups associated with the mutations are indicated in Table S2.

Both of these positions are invalid and wrong. Egyptians did not come from West Africa or Inner Africa. They're North- East Africans with some minor Admixture with Other Egyptians who populated Eurasia and comeback to Egypt.
There's some likely chance that Ancient Egyptians did venture into Sub-Saharan Africa, but that does not mean that they're from there.
You may not intend to, but you have to be careful of setting up a strawman here. No one said Egyptians came from "inner" Africa per se. The word "inner" is not even used in this thread save by Takuri who sorted his data charts by region. He likewise made no claim of "Egyptians coming from 'inner' Africa."
However it should be noted that the primary provider of the foundational Nile Valley population is indeed "sub-Saharan" Africa. Even Mary Lefkowitz admits this.
As for the ancient Egyptians, yes we all know they were indigenous Northeast tropical Africans- just like people from the Sudan, parts of Chad, Ethiopia, etc etc.
But since assorted deniers and distorters of African bio-history utilize strawmen as one of their primary tactics , let's restate once more- no- you don;t have to come from "inner" Africa to be "truly" African, just as you don't have to come from the far north like Sweden to be "truly" European.
But in any event, there is plenty to link ancient Egyptians with other "sub-Saharan" Africans- let's see: --DNA --Cranial --Dental --Limb proportion --Linguistic --Cultural --Foundational movements into the Nile Valley
And just in case you run into assorted distorters playing strawmen: The data on this thread STILL shows plenty of African or "black" influence in modern Egypt. Assorted modern Arabi/Ferengi types are trying to "white out" these people. But that won't work. If nothing else, outside Egypt, it is some diasporan blacks who are keeping the faith with the darker sons of the soil. They aren't running to and fro trying to "distance" themselves from dark Egyptians like so many Arabi types. You see, Black folk in the US have not forgotten the dark "sons of the soil" or even certain Egyptian presidents.. And they aren't "ashamed" to be "associated" with them.

ignoring the idiot above. The study HE cited debunked his own idiotic idea. Pagani claimed that modern Egyptians are 80% foriegners (even I don’t believe the numbers are that high). Pagani “inferred” that this incursion happened DURING the Islamic expansion(NOT DURING Pharonic times or before), althoug he did not provide any such evidence. Yet, this idiot has come up with an outrageous claim and expect people to take him seriously. Tsk! tsk! Clueless!
== Anyways- continuing - I have to admit when the Amarnas came back genetically “Sub-Saharan “and E1b1a for Rameses III, I was surprised. I expected them to align first with North Africans E1b1b or J1(not J2). Why? Because I was conditioned/programmed. I knew undoubtedly that the AEians were indigenous Africans(and Western Europeans had absolutely no connection). But because of location and formation etc. I expected them to be more Berber-type Africans or even Horner type Africans in reality as it turns out they are genetically closest to the “True Negros”. I am not going to delude myself and suggest that the AEians are “stereotypical - as seen on TV” Negro”. Some were but many weren’t. So the question a thinking man needs to ask is, why?, how come? What happened?
Anyone? It is not a simple as “They were driven south”. That is part of the answer.
Cass/Dead and Dr Winters touched on it recently in that thread.
That is why we CANNOT and must NOT equate the two ie Caucasians=Modern Europeans. That is the mistake we as Africanist need to get past. Caucasians is a word used t o trip you up. It is also a label used by Europeans to STEAL African history and black civilizations. And include themselves in the past when in reality they have a very recent history.

Everything summed, has already been posted here, and you have been debunked with peer reviewed sources.
There are no Paleolithic pre-Egyptians loony, except for proto-Kerma- Naqada which had nothing to do with what you keep claiming. These people were an extract from the Sahara-Sahel regions.
There was only Northeast Africa during the out migrations. By several groups/ populations from deeper within Africa over different timeperiods moved out of Africa carried different SNP's, which let to what Eurasians carried. One of the hubs was Northeast Africa-Levant.

Re: Bone Head #13597
Proof it!
Here is some more elementary, boy:
quote: Human genetic variation particularly in Africa is still poorly understood. This is despite a consensus on the large African effective population size compared to populations from other continents. Based on sequencing of the mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit II (MT-CO2), and genome wide microsatellite data we observe evidence suggesting the effective size (Ne) of humans to be larger than the current estimates, with a foci of increased genetic diversity in east Africa, and a population size of east Africans being at least 2-6 fold larger than other populations. Both phylogenetic and network analysis indicate that east Africans possess more ancestral lineages in comparison to various continental populations placing them at the root of the human evolutionary tree. Our results also affirm east Africa as the likely spot from which migration towards Asia has taken place. The study reflects the spectacular level of sequence variation within east Africans in comparison to the global sample, and appeals for further studies that may contribute towards filling the existing gaps in the database. The implication of these data to current genomic research, as well as the need to carry out defined studies of human genetic variation that includes more African populations; particularly east Africans is paramount.
[...]
Table 1 shows the population parameters and selective neutrality test (Tajima’s D) based on MT-CO2 variation of all continental groups, mean values and test of significance for the obtained values. Tajima’s D (Table 1) scored negative values consistent with human expansion within and outside of Africa (or exchange of alleles between neighboring demes, see discussion below) with satisfactory statistical scores. The transition to transversion ratio of 2:1 in our reported Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) is consistent with being at the root of the gene tree and with neutral evolution distance based analysis using FST for mtDNA sequences and RST for microsatellite data were carried out for subsequent MDS plotting and a population by population correlation comparison using Mantel Test. The result showed no correlation with a P value of 0.66 similar to comparison between mitochondria and Y chromosome variations reported earlier [16].
[...]
The third cluster (C), includes members of almost all world populations particularly non-Africans who share a major haplo- type that seems to have originated within an east African gene pool (Table S1 and Figure 3).
[...]
Mutations and Haplotypes Frequencies in the MT-CO2
The sheer number of haplotypes, a basic measurement of genetic diversity, is also taken as an indication of Ne. As mitochondria are non-recombining the number of mutations and haplotypes is quite correlated. In the MT-CO2 sequence 68 haplotypes were estimated using Arlequin ver3.11 and assigned numbers from 1 to 68. Haplotype relative and absolute frequencies in the studied populations were also calculated. Strikingly, of the total 68 haplotypes, 43 occurred solely in east Africa (Table S1) of which 25 were in Sudanese, 9 in Eritreans and 5 in Ugandans and one Kenyan. The rest of the haplotypes were derived from or included east Africans with exception of 13 haplotypes, 4 in Africa 2 in Australia, 3 in Europe 1 in Arabia 1 America/Africa and 1 Europe/Africa. Of the 42 haplotype defining mutations (Table S2) in Sudanese and Eritreans 11 (26.2%) were non-synonymous (replacements) occurring in trans-membrane domain of COII protein while 31 (73.8%) were synonymous with transitions representing the majority of the mutations. Out of the 42 mutations (Table S2), 31 were previously reported in the literature and 11 were novel. All mutations in Ugandan MT-CO2 samples are synonymous and reported at http://dspace.nwu.ac.za/handle/10394/4221). All published haplogroups associated with the mutations are indicated in Table S2.

The Episode of Genetic Drift Defining the Migration of Humans out of Africa Is Derived from a Large East African Population Size

And surprisingly the following was stated by Brenna Henn, in this interview on population genetics and population structure, considering African populations.
“African populations have the most genetic diversity in the world,” Henn said. “If you compared people from the Kalahari Desert to people from Mali, they’d be as different from each other [genetically] as Italians and Chinese people.”
Why are other populations of humans so much less genetically varied than Africans? The answer, Henn explains, lies in our ancestors’ history; the groups of people that migrated out of Africa and spread throughout other continents were smaller subsets of that original, genetically diverse population.

Quite dubious. The DNA shows that many MODERN Egyptians with their Arabized background, are not heavily related to the ancients. And DNA is "not the only thing that matters." That's nonsense. DNA always has to be cross checked against other evidence. If inconsistent then it is questionable. Those lines of evidence include plenty to link ancient Egyptians with other "sub-Saharan" Africans-such as: --DNA (ancient mummies cluster with Africans) --Cranial --Dental --Limb proportion --Linguistic --Cultural --Foundational movements from south of the Sahara into the Nile Valley
And whether "races" exist is completely irrelevant. By the way, Ethiopia, Somalia and large parts of the Sudan and Chad are themselves "sub-Saharan." And Ancient Egyptian language shares commonalities with languages from Chad to Ethiopia. And "West Africans" or people from "inner Africa" are tropical Africans, but they are not the only tropical Africans in Africa. Plenty of such Africans are in the Nile Valley, including Egypt.
"Ancient Egypt belongs to a language group known as 'Afroasiatic' (formerly called Hamito- Semitic) and its closest relatives are other north-east African languages from Somalia to Chad. Egypt's cultural features, both material and ideological and particularly in the earliest phases, show clear connections with that same broad area. In sum, ancient Egypt was an African culture, developed by African peoples, who had wide ranging contacts in north Africa and western Asia." (Morkot, Robert (2005) The Egyptians: An Introduction. Routledge. p. 10)

Have you ever wondered [...] about up and down streams?
quote: According to the current data East Africa is home to nearly 2/3 of the world genetic diversity independent of sampling effect. Similar figure have been suggested for sub-Saharan Africa populations [1]. The antiquity of the east African gene pool could be viewed not only from the perspective of the amount of genetic diversity endowed within it but also by signals of uni-modal distribution in their mitochondrial DNA (Hassan et al., unpublished) usually taken as an indication of populations that have passed through ‘‘recent’’ demographic expansion [33], although in this case, may in fact be considered a sign of extended shared history of in situ evolution where alleles are exchanged between neighboring demes [34].
Figure S1 Neighbor joining (NJ). NJ tree of the world populations based on MT-CO2 sequences. The evolutionary relationship of 171 sequences and evolutionary history was inferred using the Neighbor-Joining method. The optimal tree with the sum of branch length = 0.20401570 is shown. The evolutionary distances were computed using the Maximum Composite Likelihood method and are in the units of the number of base substitutions per site. Codon positions included were 1st+2nd+3rd+Noncoding. All positions containing gaps and missing data were eliminated from the dataset. There were a total of 543 positions in the final dataset. Phylogenetic analyses were conducted in MEGA4. Red dots: east Africa, Blue: Africa, Green: Asia, Yellow: Australia, Pink: Europe and gray: America. (TIF)

MDS uses pairwise IBS data based on the 848 loci generated by PLINK software and plotted using R version 2.15.0. The figure, besides a separate clustering of east Africans, indicates the substantial contribution of Africans and east Africans to the founding of populations of Europe and Asia. (TIF)

MDS uses pairwise IBS data based on the 848 loci generated by PLINK software and plotted using R version 2.15.0. The central position of east Africans and some other Africans emphasizes the founding role of east African gene pool and the disparate alignment on coordinates along which the world populations were founded including populations of Aftica aligning along the 4th dimension.

The Sanchez-Quinto graph does show a significant Qatari-like component in modern Egyptian ancestry, so like you said the Islamic Arab contribution can't be ignored. But I'm also seeing a Southern European-like element in the Egyptian cluster pool that may even be more significant than the Arab influence as per Table 1. Might some of that relate to admixture with Greeks and Romans?
Posted by Djehuti (Member # 6698) on :
^ This may very well be so! I recall Ausar citing other sources which indicate that during the Roman Empire there was a large influx of Greeks and Romans who settled the Delta areas and as far south as the Faiyum. Much of the farmland in these areas became appropriated by these settlers and Egypt became known as the 'bread basket' of both the Roman empire and the later Byzantine empire.

... The country's populace has soared from 44 million when Mubarak took power in 1981 to more than 80 million today, making Egypt by far the most populous country in the Middle East and the Arab world. And Egyptians are densely concentrated, living in a narrow band along the Nile, as the rest of the country is dry and largely uninhabitable. If Egypt's current growth rate continues, its population could hit 160 million by 2050.
The fact alone that most of the population growth in Egypt has taken place in the last 150 years makes it impossible for the modern population to be the same as the ancient one. That is simply absurd nonsense.
[/QUOTE]THANK YOU, Doug!!! A WHOLE MASS OF PEOPLE HAVE COME INTO EGYPT FROM WEST ASIA (THE LEVANT)IN THE PAST 300 YEARS.
I had a professor from Syria that told me it was a few millions during the age Egypt was one of the great industrial countries(late 19th century?).
"Egypt's population, estimated at 3 million when Napoleon invaded the country in 1798, has increased at varying rates. The population grew gradually and steadily throughout the nineteenth century, doubling in size over the course of eighty years. Beginning in the 1880s, the growth rate accelerated, and the population increased more than 600 percent in 100 years. The growth rate was especially high after World War II. In 1947 a census indicated that Egypt's population was 19 million.'"
Guess that professor really knew what he was talking about. [/QB][/QUOTE]

^ Yes but if you're paying attention Turks make up only a small minority of the foreign invaders. The largest groups represented are southern Europeans-- mainly Greeks and Italians and Southwest Asians-- mainly Arabs and Levantines.

But there is not such thing as the average. Doug explained it before. If samples are retrieved in the South, West or North the outcome will show different. The only average will be because certain segments of the population have become larger, as I showed before.

The average United states citizen is around 75% European and under 1% Hawaiian. That includes counting all the Hawaiian people
The average person in the state of Hawaii is a lot more Hawaiian than the United States as a whole. That includes counting all the non-Hawaiian people in Hawaii
This is called demographics
You count all the different types of people in a given area and then see what percentage of each type is compared to the whole population
The average Jamaican is largely African. The fact that you can find some locale in Jamaica where there is a large portion of Europeans doesn't change that
This is called demographics
Anybody who claims that Egypt is mainly people of foreign descent is dealing with averages.
If someone said the people with the most foreign descent in Egypt are in the North that tells you nothing about proportion in looking at the country as a whole there could be a half million of them or there could be 80 million of them. And if you come up with a number inevitably an Egyptsearch member will jump in and say they forgot to sample a population with higher African ancestry that lives in the North -but not realizing it might be statistically insignificant.
People on Egyptsearch don't understand what demographics is
If we were to discuss the demograpics of Ethiopia and a statement was made about the average Ethiopian somebody could step in an say "but there's a community of Armenians in Ethiopia, you forgot them"
But they weren't forgotten. They just have very little relevance to who the average Ethiopian is because their population is so small. Yet in the Armenian neighborhood in Ethiopia maybe the average person is 90% Armenian. "You forgot to sample them you must hate Armenians" No, we are talking about the average type of the whole country

But , in addition, modern Egyptians are the most foreign infiltrated African population in the Northern part of the continent. And unlike some Afro-centric I don’t use “books” to make that claim. I use available scientific data. There is NO significant genetic footprint of Greeks, Romans, Vandals, Gauls or whatever existing in modern Egyptians.
My interpretation – These invasions were overated or overstated.. Just as the so called Arabian expansion in North Africa or the Bantu expansion. Etc.
There only genetic or scientific evidence of foreign occupation in North Africa are the J2 which correlates with the Ottomans. This I agree with Mike.

I think the 'least' is higher. Remember polygyny is a common Islamic practice with men being allowed to have as many as four wives. This practice is usually limited to those men who are 'well off' and especially rich since they are expected to support all wives and children. Even the majority who are poor and only marry one wife at a time still produce more than just three children on average and in Islamic law a man can easily divorce is wife by saying so three times and then is free to marry another woman. This is in part explains why the high population growth rate in many Islamic nations including Egypt.

there is such thing as an average, stop being silly
The average United states citizen is around 75% European and under 1% Hawaiian. That includes counting all the Hawaiian people
The average person in the state of Hawaii is a lot more Hawaiian than the United States as a whole. That includes counting all the non-Hawaiian people in Hawaii
This is called demographics
You count all the different types of people in a given area and then see what percentage of each type is compared to the whole population
The average Jamaican is largely African. The fact that you can find some locale in Jamaica where there is a large portion of Europeans doesn't change that
This is called demographics
Anybody who claims that Egypt is mainly people of foreign descent is dealing with averages.
If someone said the people with the most foreign descent in Egypt are in the North that tells you nothing about proportion in looking at the country as a whole there could be a half million of them or there could be 80 million of them. And if you come up with a number inevitably an Egyptsearch member will jump in and say they forgot to sample a population with higher African ancestry that lives in the North -but not realizing it might be statistically insignificant.
People on Egyptsearch don't understand what demographics is
If we were to discuss the demograpics of Ethiopia and a statement was made about the average Ethiopian somebody could step in an say "but there's a community of Armenians in Ethiopia, you forgot them"
But they weren't forgotten. They just have very little relevance to who the average Ethiopian is because their population is so small. Yet in the Armenian neighborhood in Ethiopia maybe the average person is 90% Armenian. "You forgot to sample them you must hate Armenians" No, we are talking about the average type of the whole country
The one who is always silly is you, since population genetics is based on demographics. Recent incoming populations have shifted the demographic settings of Egypt. Ironically modern Northern Egyptians aren't as tropical adapted as the ancient populations. Yet further to the South they do.
Which explains that Southern Egyptians are closer to ancient Egyptians. This has been explained 6 years in a row. O_o
Apply "indigenous Americans" (Amerindians) to recent incoming euro-Americans and so what average results you'll come up with. Next you're going to claim the recent euro-American population is ancestral to the ancient American populations. This is how frantic you are on the head.

Yes, but history also puts those demographics into context. It is a historical fact that North America has been colonized by Europeans and the indigenous populations have been drastically reduced mainly by disease. What is also historical fact is that Egypt's indigenous population has also been displaced though not as bad as North Africa due to invasions since the end of dynastic times. As was discussed here
Butzer’s (1976) figures demonstrate that throughout the dynastic period the Egyptian population numbers were denser between Aswan and Qift, and between the Faiyum and the head of the Delta. The Delta and the southern wide floodplain were more sparsely populated. Mark Lehner, The complete Pyramids
Yet since Greco-Roman times the population has been concentrated in the Delta region.
Egypt's population, estimated at 3 million when Napoleon invaded the country in 1798, has increased at varying rates. The population grew gradually and steadily throughout the nineteenth century, doubling in size over the course of eighty years. Beginning in the 1880s, the growth rate accelerated, and the population increased more than 600 percent in 100 years. The growth rate was especially high after World War II. In 1947 a census indicated that Egypt's population was 19 million. A census in 1976 revealed that the population had ballooned to 36.6 million. After 1976 the population grew at an annual rate of 2.9 percent and in 1986 reached a total of 50.4 million, including about 2.3 million Egyptians working in other countries. Projections indicated the population would reach 60 million by 1996. http://countrystudies.us/egypt/55.htm
Do the math.

By the way, J2 is indeed associated with Anatolia (Turkey) as well as the Levant and Fertile Crescent. While J1 is associated with Arabia and thus Arabs proper note J1 exceeds J2 which confirms the greater Arab presence than presumably Turkish presence, hence Egypt being an Arab Republic. Another thing is the charts don't include European clades like Y haplogroups such as I, G, R1a, and R1b which are associated with Greco-Roman colonization

Interesting how the title is named: "haplogroup J as a signature of the post-neolithic colonization of Europe"
Posted by Djehuti (Member # 6698) on :
^ Yes that is interesting considering that J did enter Europe during the Neolithic along with E. Although they may be playing semantics and only referring to early to middle Neolithic times when clades like mtDNA hg H entered Europe where it remains a major European clade today. Who knows?
I will say that according to the graphs shown, the major Eurasian Y lineage in Egypt is J1 NOT J2 which means ARAB ancestry NOT Anatolian (Turkish) ancestry.
Posted by xyyman (Member # 13597) on :
Hindu!! J1 has a paleolithic presence on Africa which could have originated IN Africa or Yemen. Most geneticist concluded there was no "Arab" expansion, only "historian" still maintain that belief .
Highest diversity of J1 is split between Yemen and East Africa. With East Africa having a slight edge for "unique" haplotypes.
The only evidence of foreign expansion into Africa is Turks J2 and the geographic pattern confirms that.

Here is what Henn et al said along with most geneticist ....
Quote:
populations. Thus, we chose the Maasai as the best ancestral sub-Saharan population for extant Egyptians.
We can REJECT a simple model of long-term continuous gene flow between the Near East(QATAR/ARABIA) and North Africa, as evidenced by clear geographic structure and non-zero Fst estimates. Fst estimates between the inferred Maghrebi cluster and sub-Saharan Africans are two to three-times greater than Fst between the Maghrebi and Europeans/Near Easterners ancestral clusters (Table S3).
we first showed that all North African populations are estimated to have diverged from OOA groups more than 12,000 ya (Figure 3). After accounting for putative recent admixture (Figure 1), the indigenous Maghrebi component (k-based) is estimated to have diverged from Near Eastern/Europeans between **18–38 Kya **(Figure 3), under a range of Ne and k values. We hence suggest that the ancestral Maghrebi population separated from Near Eastern/Europeans prior to the Holocene, and that the MAGHREBI POPULATIONS DO **NOT** REPRESENT A LARGE-SCALE DEMIC DIFFUSION OF AGROPASTORALISTS FROM THE NEAR EAST/ARABIA. With model parameters for divergence approximately estimated, we then ask whether North African ancestral populations were part of the initial OOA exit and then returned to Africa [8], or if an in situ model of population persistence for the past 50 Kya is more likely (with variable episodes of migration from the Near East)? We can address this question ONLY indirectly with contemporary samples; however, several auxiliary observations point toward the former hypothesis.

It depends on context. J1 vs J2. J1 is omniprsent through out coastal North Africa and the Sahara/Sahel, also present in old populations in Yemen and Soqoro. Unlike J2 which is regional specific. J1 has an ancient presence in Africa unlike J2

Idiot! I am not Hindu. I don't know how many times I have to keep repeating that. Plus, as far as I know J1's presence in Afria is dated to neolithic times not paleolithic unless you can cite data to back up your claims. Perhaps you are confusing J1 with J* which does have a paleolithic presence in Africa. And of course there was an Arab expansion. Not only has history stated this but it is also supported by genetics.
These documented historical events, together with the finding of a particular Eu10 haplotype in Yemenis, Palestinians, and NW Africans, are suggestive of a recent common origin of these chromosomes. Remarkably, the only non-Arabs in whom this haplotype has been observed to date are the Berbers (Bosch et al. 2001). It appears that the Eu10 chromosome pool in NW Africa is derived not only from early Neolithic dispersions but also from recent expansions from the Arabian peninsula.
Most, though not all of the J1 in Africa is dated to the Islamic conquest.

Yes and you are correct here. I never said "all" J1 in Africa is due to Islamic conquest.

The Emergence Of Y-Chromosome Haplogroup J1e Among Arabic-Speaking Populations(2010) - Jacques Chiaroni
Brenna M Henn4, Ornella Semino, Toomas Kivisild12 and Peter A Underhill2
The predominant categories of Y chromosomes in this region are varieties associated with haplogroup J-M304. This haplogroup essentially bifurcates into two main subclades, J1-M267(J1e) and J2-M172.1
Therefore, the J1e SNP information supports the previous inference that J1 chromosomes linked with DYS388¼13 repeats share a common ancestry .1 Network analysis of J1* chromosomes (Figure 2a) show a bifurcating substructure. One cluster is associated with DYS388¼15 and DYS390 423 repeats and the other cluster with DYS388¼13 repeats. The locale of highest J1* frequency occurs in the vicinity of eastern Anatolia (Figure 1c). ****BOTH**** J1* and J1e occur in Sudan and Ethiopia (Supplementary Table 1). Our data show that the YCAII 22-22 allele state is closely associated with J1e (Supplementary Table 2). Interestingly, in Ethiopia, all Cushitic Oromo and B29% of Semitic Amharic J1 chromosomes are J1*.
The high YSTR variance of J1e in Turks and Syrians (Table 1, Figure 1e) supports the inference of an origin of J1e in nearby eastern Anatolia. Moreover, the network analysis of J1e haplotypes (Figure 2b) shows that some of the populations with low diversity, such as Bedouins from Israel, Qatar, Sudan and UAE, are tightly clustered near high-frequency haplotypes suggesting founder effects with star burst expansion in the Arabian Desert.
A network analysis of J1e chromosomes (Figure 2b) also reflects situations of multiple founders. Although the haplogroup diversification within J1e remains incomplete, the somewhat rare J1e1-M368 provides an insight into the geographical origin of J1e.
Although the haplogroup relationships of YCAII alleles are unstable, nevertheless in the context of haplogroup J1, they are suggestive that the prevalent YCAII 22-22 variety may have evolved from a YCAII 19-22 ancestor.
The timing and geographical distribution of J1e is representative of a demic expansion of agriculturalists and herder–hunters from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B to the late Neolithic era.24,26 The higher variances observed in Oman, Yemen and Ethiopia suggest either sampling variability and/or demographic complexity associated with multiple founders and multiple migrations. The expansion time associated with Yemen is somewhat older (7000 BCE) and may reflect a migration of herders into southern Arabia.27
Although J1e is one of the most frequent haplogroups in the region, haplogroup E-M123 also shows its highest frequency and haplotype diversity in regions of the Fertile Crescent, decreasing toward the Arabian Peninsula. 1,2,6 This ***CO-DISTRIBUTION*** pattern of Y-chromosome haplogroups J1e and E-M123 resembles mtDNA haplogroups J1b and (PreHV)1 distributions that also display low levels of diversity despite their high frequency in Saudi Arabia.32,33
