Kenya's and Tanzania's coastal areas were more swampy/humid and less hospitable to Cushites.Why do you think that is so?
Highland area of Kenya and North Tanzania resemble Ethiopia climatically.

RW is Mirifle plus a few Digil clans. Neither Garre, Jiido or Tunni are RW.Lol, I know they are Digil and Mirifle, but IMO Isaaq/Darods/Hawiyes group them all together.
Arent Eyle different from Elaay ?IMO, They won't. It is already out of the question. It is a myth I see thrown around (''Khoisan'' Somalis) with very little evidence so far. The Booni who lead the purest of hunter gather lifestyles barely do. The Eeyle/Eelaay are more integrated with ethnic Somalis and likely have even more Cushitic/NEA percentages as their ancestral base which was then subsequently reduced by Bantu admixture. The Bantu admixture is likely the only main difference they have from regular Somalis.
What are they?RW is Mirifle plus a few Digil clans. Neither Garre, Jiido or Tunni are RW.
Their was definitely some intermarriage somewhere down the line with some Somali bantus. Not all of them just a very little small amount.Thought this might interest some of you
What confuses me the most is that most of her bantu DNA is derived from the Congo in comparison to the most accepted theory that somali bantus are costal swahilis from Mozambique and Tanzania and she’s also 14.6% somali which means intermarriage does happen
That is surprising. If I had to guess I would have said the Shabelle Bantu are about 25% Somali.She is a Shabelle JW. Apparently they have more Somali admixture than Jubba JWs. Lastly, AAs are admixed with full Eurasians. Ethnic Somalis are not full Eurasian, only 38%.
Don’t think this is true. I have seen a video which featured somali bantus from Jubbaland. They were very much phenotypically somali. Also it could be possible this group might actually more admixture than shabelle ones. They could possibly have oromo mixture as I don’t believe that they were eradicated. Some of them could have assimilated by the bantus.She is a Shabelle JW. Apparently they have more Somali admixture than Jubba JWs. Lastly, AAs are admixed with full Eurasians.

They are not Digil and Mirifle. According to clan folklore, one group, the Quranyow, are Dir whilst the Tuuf are related to Gaaljecel, Degoodi, Cawramale and come under the Gardheere Samaale branch. Hawiyes and other Samaales know this, it is just the non-Samaales that are ignorant of their clan affiliation.Lol, I know they are Digil and Mirifle, but IMO Isaaqs/Darods/Hawiyes group them all together.
To be fair even looking at her she doesn't look typically bantu. You can tell she has admixtureTheir was definitely some intermarriage somewhere down the line with some Somali bantus. Not all of them just a very little small amount.
I live in San Diego their are more Somali bantus then Somalis here and some of them have lighter skin then other bantus from other African countries
A lot of them could pass as African Americans.
I even have a Bantu friend that has softer nappy hair kind of like Ethiopian peoples hair.
This came to mind:Kenya's and Tanzania's coastal areas were more swampy/humid and less hospitable to Cushites.

We had a Somali bantu family friend who was married to a north sudanese person. She was so nice and i loved visiting her home and eating delicious unique sweets, like sabayad and xalwa etc.
I love all Somalis of all tribes and ethnicities

Waan iska qoslay markaan qosolkaada arkay.I am assuming the worst of course and that laugh was generated by an evil thought in your mind. Plus magacaada funiga ah. Ciyaalsuuq.
According to Virginia Luling the Eelaay are a noble Reewiin clan residing mostly at Buur Hakaba. The Eyle are two distinct groups living at Buur Heybe. One is the "hunters with dogs" who many anthropologists think are the native hunter-gatherers. The other is a Bantu group, farming clients of the hunters. There are three ethnically distinct groups with similar names.Arent Eyle different from Elaay ?
Elaay is a Rahanweyn clan as far as I know while Eyle are a minority tribe that used to hunt animals and sell the meat to the Somali clans . They were basically considered an outcast clan like Madhiban and Tumaal .
Bantu aren't really west african lolI’m pretty sure your average white American has more African American derived blood than your average somali has bantu blood
Are we watching some Bantu woman spitting inside a DNA test?Thought this might interest some of you
