are we influenced by yemenis or are yemenis influenced by us

[pirater]

Akhi Somali culture and yemini culture is intertwined

stop with akhi bs

our cultures aren't intertwined

Somali culture is heavily influenced by Arab culture, same way Arab culture is somewhat influenced by ours.

 

[Rocktheboat]

It's obvious they were influenced by us since south Yemenis are the only ones who wear diracs. The north Yemenis wear the same thing as the other Arabs

We are talking strictly about Yemenis.

facts. People are biased. I always hear "somalis were influenced by Yemenis" and never the other way

 

[Periplus]

Somalis are probably more alike to Yemenis and Omanis than any other people in the region.

As for who influenced who, I think it was mutual. Hadramautis probably took diracs from us and Somalis probably took bariis iyo hilib (which is basically mandhi), bisbaas cagaar, maraaq and malawax from Yemenis.

''hilib'' we took hilib from them you oki, nigga every cave man had hilib nd baris,

 

[Periplus]

''hilib'' we took hilib from them you oki, nigga every cave man had hilib nd baris,

I am talking about the dish "bariis iyo hilib" or "bariis iskukaris", which is basically mandhi/mansaf/kabsa.

We were eating that for a long long time. Our diet was meat and caano geel throughout history and we would trade for rice and other grains

Not all Culture but Southern Yemeni culture because Somalis used to live in Cadan in very large numbers.

Qamandi and teef.

Xaabashi tried to claim teef as their trademark.
But in Galbeed somalis eat Teef as part of the cereals.
Teef is native to horn of Africa used to cook canjeera with.

Somalia's entire historic diet was not caano geel and hilib.

What about people in areas without camels?

Its correct to say that the baadiye diet is caano geel iyo hilib but people in other areas of Somalia had much more diverse diets. It is important not to paint Somalia with a broad brush.

I didn’t say it was the only historic diet though

I am not trying to start an argument, my statement was because a lot people say this without really thinking about how absurd it is.

Maraq came from us, malawax existed everywhere and the modern malawax orginated from Europe, bisbas cagaar came from Somalia or south asia , 80% of the Arabs food came from ottoman Turks and 20% came from East Africans these people only copied us, their food was only meat and dates, the camels they got it from the Somalis

Probably.

All I know is that maraq is almost universal in Southern Arabia, malawax is now associated with Israeli culture and bisbaas cagaar is called zhoug in Yemen and I've seen American jews have tutorials on how to make it.

Maraq was and are one of our ancient food, the camels orginated from the Somali peninsula and we always used to eat/drink maraq
The jews from Israel literally took every food from the Middle East as Jewish food loool green chili sauce was originally Somali or south Asians laakin don’t know who but it’s not arab nor Jews lol

I agree with Israel stealing cuisines and camels originating in Somalia. My point was that I think there is a mutual cultural exchange between us and who knows what came from where.
