Somali Scientists analyze genomes from Bosaso

[Cerberus]

Findings:
•60% Ancient East African
•25% Ancient West Asian (Middle East)
•15% Ancient North African





I hope that finally settles this ongoing debate for further information here:

Genome-wide analyses disclose the distinctive HLA architecture and the pharmacogenetic landscape of the Somali population - Scientific Reports

African populations are underrepresented in medical genomics studies. For the Somali population, there is virtually no information on genomic markers with significance to precision medicine. Here, we analyzed nearly 900,000 genomic markers in samples collected from 95 unrelated individuals in...

Dna.land and some others found 28% North African/Egyptian Arab in me. but @Apollo mentioned all Horn Africans got ancient small amounts of Ancient Middle Eastern.

Read my question again.

Somalis are known to have come to Somalia 2500-3000 years ago. You're saying we got admixed with ME and NA before the migration?

Were we from.?

The question of when someone arrived somewhere is very complicated. For myself for instance do I include my neanderthal ancestors, in which case my ancestors immigrated to Europe about a million years ago, or only my non-neanderthal ancestors, which means about 150,000 years ago, or only my Y-DNA lineage, which means 50,000 years ago, or only people who spoke an indo-european language, which is only 4500 years ago?

It is actually quite simple. Only 2-3% of your ancestry arrived in Europe about 500,000 years ago, while 97-98% didn't (Out-of-Africa).

PS. A big portion of Western European's ancestry is also composed of Western European hunter-gatherers who lived in that region for more than 30,000 years and the Yamnaya/Indo-Europeans came from Eastern Europe (Western Steppes around Ukraine), which is Europe as well.

I'm waiting when these genome retracing tests is done to repute the somali clan structures.

So you guys believe that we come from some guys who came on a magic carpet, crossed the Red Sea and married local women.

That's not what this study says.

I was just responding to the conversation. I comprehend what the study says.
