You’ve just proved my point. Again I get it about Southern Dir but where do you get off saying Hawiye are assimilated Dir?
Karanle is the eldest born of Hawiye and my family is T.
The ethnogenesis of Somali clans correspond with Y-lineages. HG-T is found in a small number of Hawiyes and Darod compared to Dir and Isaaq where it forms the majority. Hence my theory of assimilation.
Not to mention geography, Karanle live in a sea of Dir, surrounded on every side.
