genetics

Sorry to ask something so completely irrelevant to Somalia, and the Horn in general — I'm just a little bit desperate at this point. I have been trying to figure this out for the longest, and everyone on this sub-forum seems to be very well-versed in African genetics, so as a last resort, I...

I was suffering for three months in silence, not knowing what my result would be. My life could've ended depending upon which result I received, but it seems all those sleepless nights were for nothing. This is my preliminary Y-FULL results. My Dua has been ANSWERED!!!!:lawd: Hello...

Does anyone know how long it takes? I'm Gadabursi and got T-L208 on 23&me already.

I was going through ftdna to research my paternal haplogroup, when I found Kagame in the notable connections section. It appears we share the same paternal lineage that split ~2900 years ago. E-Z1746 falls under E-CTS99 which falls under E-M2. it is a Bantu paternal haplogroup. He has a strong...

According to FamilyTreeDNA haplogroup T-M184 migrated from around Southeast Turkey/northwest Iran areas north of Iraq. From there it spread onwards and the route it took to the horn of Africa is Mesopotamia-Arabian peninsula-Horn of Africa route, not the Egyptian route which some people theorise...

I've been curious about how many Sudanese define themselves as Arabs when many look no different to other Africans and fairly dark as well. (Not unexpected). I know obviously it's possible they've been Arabized, similarly to the North Africans, but they also have many indigenous languages...

Anyone who claims to belong to a people when he has no...

I didn't know maasais could look like this. :ohhh:

I thought this was pretty cool, note that for the graph on the top right the vertical axis has 9x the weight of the horizontal axis so the vertical axis is the most important by far. You can also see their sample for Somali South has a few anomalies, matching close to the Kikuyu people. Maybe...

These people descend from Somalis? I've never heard about any interaction between Somalis and Madagascans. Antemoro people

Like the Hadza? :cosbyhmm::cosbyhmm::cosbyhmm::cosbyhmm:

I came across this website it made Somalis look like narrow faced indians :damn:

Hello all, I am new to the forum. Nickname is Ozzy. I am 100% Somali from Beledweyne area and not a drop of Ethiopian or anything else in me except 2% Neanderthal genes. Also myself and other pure Somalis have the HIV resistance Gene. That means HIV is hard for us to get and if we do manage...

It seems that the average Somali is more inbred than the product of a normal second cousin marriage, and FROH (measure of inbreeding) of 0.015 for children of second cousins and a higher higher 0.018 for the average Somali. This is apparently due to present day preference for consanguineous...
