Horn African ancestry Reddit

[Riftvalley]

Ditch the term Horn Africa for terms like Adalistan, ifataynia, Ajuurland, Harlanda……

Yeah i remember that thread, they were making assumptions of us being inbred when in reality we are the purest of Cushites, we basically kept our stock ever since Proto-Nilotic and Natufians mixed, that’s why we cluster close to the ancient Neolithic pastoralists Kenya and Tanzania.

Those guys are still 20% Mota bare in mind. They're not like us.

I came across yt channel discussing West African ghost population(8-19% DNA comes from unknown archaic hominid keep in mind Neanderthals and Denisovans are archaic humans too). It was filled with racism, calling WA subhuman who have archaic ancestry.




2 million yrs ago → Homo erectus
|
1 million yrs ago → Split: Homo erectus ↔ Homo heidelbergensis (ancestor of Neanderthals and us)
|
700–500k yrs ago → Homo sapiens split from Neanderthals/Denisovans
|
400k yrs ago → Neanderthals ↔ Denisovans split

Population	Main Ancestry Components	Neanderthal DNA	Denisovan DNA	Ghost/Archaic African DNA	Notes
Horn Africans	East African + West Eurasian	~0.5–1.5%	Trace	~2–5% (unknown archaic African)	High Eurasian back-migration; ancient African depth
West Africans	West African hunter-gatherers	None or Trace	None	~8–19% (unknown archaic African)	Deep African ancestry with ghost DNA
Europeans	Out-of-Africa + West Eurasian	~1.5–2.1%	Tiny/None	None	Descended from non-African lineages post-migration
East Asians	Out-of-Africa + East Eurasian	~2–2.3%	~0.1–0.3%	None	Slightly more Neanderthal DNA than Europeans
Melanesians	Out-of-Africa + Oceanian	~2%	~4–6%	None	Highest Denisovan DNA globally

Acting having mota is bad in fact they got better genes

would you like to elaborate on that

would you like to elaborate on that

Is mota omotic? And where does it come from, it’s it exclusive to Ethiopians or both Ethiopians and Eritreans

the thing is, Mota was an ancient person living in Southwest Ethiopia back then. He himself wasn't Omotic, as it was a long time ago, but he was ethnically similar to the Omotic people we have today. He was straight up pure East African hunter-gatherer with 0 Eurasian blood iirc... now as for exclusivity, it's not only Ethiopia where you will find Mota-like ancestry, but when found outside of southwest Ethiopia, it's usually small traces.. I think Eritreans also don't have much Mota like blood either.. I'm not the most knowledgeable on this, but this is what I recall
