How can we be certain in our alleged ancient admixture?

[freeupgang]

Massai have south cushitic admixture which is why they tend to resemble Somalis

Hehe, it is the other way around. The Samburu and Maasai are like NFD Somalis who got cucked by Dinkas and Bantus, kkkk. Not true how I described this, but also not totally false.

This whole time I thought they were fully Nilotic if they’re not full Nilotic then who is?

No group is fully Nilotic they all have slight bantu admixture now but the most Nilotic group is the dinka tribe who are about 80 percent nilotic

Nobody is.

There also no pure Cushites.

Every group got some admixture from something else, except for weird groups like the Andamanese who have been the same for 20,000 years.

That must be why we’re so tall

I'm not really a great geneticist I am only 13 the experts are Apollo Somali General and Som

Become a geneticist or anthropologist when you grow up

I’ve seen how 60% african people look they have coarse hair and more afro facial features while we have many Somalis with curly and wavy hair with more “caucasian” facial features

the africans you see who are 60% black are mostly bantu+european. For example african americans are on average 70% black and 30% white, some may be around 60% black but it's mostly bantu so they would still have larger noses and lips. Somalis and ethiopians are on average 50-60% "nilotic". Nilotic peoples have smaller noses and lips than bantus. The rest of our ancestry comes from western eurasians (middle easterns) who came back to africa around 4000-3000 years ago.

True true but u forgot that small Hunter gatherer

also let's stop with this BS about caucasian feautures. Some somalis show caucasian traits, but many other show much less. This is an average crowd in Somaliland
They can easily pass as african americans in the eyes of the average european.

I like this unique mix tbh I feel like if we were mixed with the typical african like Bantu we wouldn’t look that unique

60%? That seems too high imo I always assumed we would be around 40% if we were mixed.

Thar 60% sub Sharan is Nilo Sharan or Nilotic like the Dinka tribe.
