I think haplogroup T came from prehistoric Iran (pre-Indo-Euro).
Without Indo-European blood that modern Iranians have.
Ancient Iranians were more similar to Levantines and Arabs.
Probably looked like Ahmadinejad instead of the more fairer Iranians.
Nilotic are the real Hamitic Cushitic people the original, Somalis and Ethiopians are hybrids

I think haplogroup T came from prehistoric Iran (pre-Indo-European).
Haplogroup J came from the Caucasus/Black Sea region.
Only E1b1b1 is truly native to North Africa, the Horn, and possibly pre-Neolithic Levant.
f*ck no. I ain't no hairy Iranian. I believe in the theory that T came from the Levant through Egypt/Red Sea. Just slightly later or at the same time as E1b1b.
Sorry brah, you got to accept reality.
I don't think they will ever find non-A/B/Es in Africa before 15,000 BCE. The T/J/Rs came after the Neolithic.
E-M35 used to dominate the Southern Levant until the eternal Iranoids (J/Ts) conquered them.
But don't sweat it, you are just as Cushitic as any other Somali.
Who was in Iran before the R-haplogroup carrying Persians? The Elamites?
Also, how did T-haplogroup get so far south as Zimbabwe so quickly?
Iran around the cusp of the Neolithic was mainly J/T/L/G. And were ethnically/racially different from present-day Iranians (less admixture from the North (Central Asia/Europe). So, not as white as today's whiter-end Iranians.
R1a/R is actually quite a strange haplogroup that may have started all the way in Eastern Central Asia or Siberia.
About how T got to Southern Africa. Cushites discovered Southern Africa before the Bantus, but never managed to dominate it. They quickly disappeared in the Nama/Khoe population (~20%) and even affected the San hunter-gatherer population up to (~8%) IIRC. This is why E-M293 (an E-M35 sub-clade) exists there as well. T-M70 may have tagged along.
PS. I prefer to use these mutation names like E-M293 over the a/b system as that system changes every couple of years.
So the stuff about the Lemba people being descendants of lost Jews is made up? They're actually descendants of list Cushites?
Nope, the Lemba have little to do with prehistoric T carrying Cushites that made an impact in Southeast Africa.
The Lemba got their T from Yemenite Jews from Arabia who traveled to Mozambique during the Middle Ages when transcontinental trade started. A different variety not present in Cushitic populations.
By the way, despite popular myth that Jews claim through their mothers, most Jewish populations are more Jewy on their Y-Chromosome than their maternal side.

What is the “Jewish” Haplogroup to begin with?
