Aren’t Haplogroups A and B Hunter gatherer and Nilote markers respectively?
what about Somalis with T-M184? are we not ethnicIt doesn't exist natively in ethnic Somalis. Somalis can only have E-M35, T-L208, and J1. Nilotes and HG's have different A/B versions from Bantus splitting off tens of thousands of years.
The B versions found in Somalia are the Bantu sub-types matching SEA Bantus within a few hundred years (not ancient). Bantus are not just E-M2, they also have E-M98 & B-M182 sub-clades.
All those Arabs you see in that list have Swahili/SEA versions as well: slave trade.

so is T considered cushitic or semetic and why?T in Somalia is old and found in 100% ethnic Somalis. Also, J1 is found in 5% of ethnic Somalis.
All other haplogroups are not Somali besides those three (E-M35, T-L208, J1).
so is T considered cushitic or semetic and why?
ok good information but haplogroup t originated in the middle east so wouldnt that mean your ancestors are semetic and not cushitic?Cushitic and Semitic are only ~ 6,000-year-old language families.. dude, these haplogroups you mentioned are over 30,000 years old, way before any language group. They are found in many different language groups.
By the way, the true Semitic haplogroup is E-M123. They spread the first Afro-Asiatic dialect from Egypt into the Levant. J1 become Semitic later on by joining the E-M123 tribe.
