  • Exactly my friend when you ride a horse is XXX, and when you open a bottle of champagne is Q !!

    I miss my friend Xholile, If somebody goes to South Africa I can send you his email. He is very poor but is a real leader, he lives in a township and all these people need help. The AIDS there is just 10%!! of the population (ie, 800 of 8.000)

  • @GingerRose4444

    I think he means that some of it is easy to remember because you can compare one click to opening a bottle of champagne, and another to the clicks you do when you ride a horse.

  • I wonder what their pop music sounds like:p

  • @cannoir I used to have them when I was little but they went away but they are coming back slowy. You speak xhosa?

  • @odinisawesome - In short - Asians branched off from a group related to prehistory Khoi people. This could explain their distinct eye appearance which is also shared by many peoples in Central Asia as well and even some Eastern Europeans to a lesser extent.

  • @odinisawesome - Most E. Asians seem to branch off from a proto-Caucasoid group related to Indians, Iranians and Kazakhs tens of thousands of years ago. Their genes trace their origins to central Africa where the proto/paleo-Khoi ("Capoid") peoples originally lived in Africa before being forced southward by latter Bantu migration:

    A graph on the "Mongoloid race" Wikipedia article shows this better.

  • @odinisawesome - Chinese have a somewhat negligible amount of external Caucasian influence, mostly from Central Asia by Turkic peoples. They likely branched off from a Central Asian Caucasian group. Craniofacial anthropology is largely outdated as it relies on somewhat contrived groups that keep changing as they discover the old ones were incorrect. Genetics is much more precise as it's like a serial number for humans that tells us more than their external appearance would.
