  • Yes, the modern Egyptians do descend from Ancient Egyptians. However, most of the modern Egyptians have lineages from other groups and populations as well.

  • @kubaniski there still their very concetrated and very few in numbers. But that population wiping out is a bad thing for genetics in science because they were the first to settle in that region and that alone could tell you a lot about the Genetics that are in that region

  • @davidcici11 they are different in many ways as 50,000 years of separate evolution will do. However they are (or were) for all intensive purposes Negros. Are they still around? I thought the tsunami in 05 wiped them out?

    It's kind of like North Indian Aryans (high Caste) they where separated form Europeans and north Africans for 10,000-20,000 years they are both white abut are quite different no because over time populations evolve. But DNA tests show their relationship is relatively close.

  • @davidcici11 actuallly there is a the same relationship between the Adamenses and lets say west africans as there is between west africans and the Bushmen of South Africa. They are descended from the migration which the rest of the world took part in getting out of africa. However they got stuck on the islands as sea levels rose and because the similar climate and isolation (untill recently) from other populations they devolved similarly to the african negros.

  • @kubaniski their is a word for that but similarity is not always an abstract of relation. Certain Indians (Adamenese) and New Guineans and Oceania's cluster with certain Africans but genetically they are not the same in matter of fact they are far from being similar. So measuring things based off certain measures does not always restract relationships

  • @davidcici11 like i said in the post before I know about Africans being very different from each other.

    What im saying is that northeastern Negros have a lot of genetic similarity with caucasians. The fact that they also look more caucasian is just an extra. 

  • @kubaniski Caucasoid features is as relevant as a piece of shit on the floor. No modern anthropologist confines to those terms, Dr. Sarah Tishkoff states 'People who believe in those terms are layman" (non-experts) Africans have the most physical variability on the planet making almost 90% of it worldwide and I am not talking about North Africans I am talking about those so-called Negroes (Sub-Saharan) statues are irrelevant according to S.O.Y Keita mummies were totally different from the statue

  • @fieldsstevie im not talking about phenotype of blacks. Im talking about the proven higher levels of DNA similarities between the people of northeast sub-Saharan Africa and Caucasians. Although yes they also do look slightly more Caucasian then most other Negroids. And yes i realize that Negroids are a large and diverse race with a whole bunch of different phenotypes. Negros in far southern Africa are light skinned, however they are not similar to Whites via DNA analysis.

  • @kubaniski africa is a big continent,,people all over it have some different features just like asians europeans etc ethiopia, djibouti, eritrea, chad, somlia, kenya, sudan you will find africans with caucasians looks ,, they still african you hav your own mental picture of what an african looks like

  • @fieldsstevie The Egyptians and Berbers are Africans too but they're not Negros. and yea there will be some mixed race people in africa due to colonization. However referring to etheopians they are NOT mixed with Caucasians, they are the evolutionary link between Negros and Caucasians.

    The statues can be as dark as night, however if you look at said statues you notice they have Caucasoid features. Romans used dark marble in their statues too.

    90% of DNA says humans are mice.
