Other Cushitics have little in common with Somalis

[Maltuse]

Other than Afars, we don't really look like other Cushitics:

It's only the Afar that look like Somalis, but also Saho's of Eritrea and other Eritreans in general.

For example this guy's not Afar but Beja or Tigre, probably Beni-Amer.

I remember now! Why the hell did they label the Xamir Agaw Afar anyway?

I think real Afars will cluster in between those Xamir Agaws and North Somalis, probably. @World

Those Xamir Agaws are an interesting bunch, despite being surrounded by rather Omotic-shifted Amharas, they still maintained a rather high level of original Cushitic.

Sahos should be interesting to see their autosomals. They have like 90% E-M78. It seems like they don't mix with the Habesha.

Can someone tell me wtf Omo-tana Cushites are? They look like nilotes.

@Prince Abubu the Daasanach are not genetically Cushitic. They adopted a Cushitic language when they moved to the Omo valley in the past few hundred years. They are a Nilo-Saharan people related to the Pokot of Kenya.
