"Cerulli has recorded traditional narrative of how the Darandole conquered Mogadishu against the Muzaffar dynasty:
“In ancient times the Sirasi lived in Mogadiscio. The people called Halawani succeeded the Sirasi. The Mudaffar succeeded the Halawani. The Mudaffar came from the country of Yemen in Arabia. He had guns. He built the palace that is found under the Governor’s house. He was a friend of the Aguran. At that time the Mudaffar governed the coast; and the Aguran ruled in the woodland. The Hirabe were not nearby them; they lived in the northern places. At that time the people of the woodland could not spend the night in the city of Mogadiscio. At sunset a ban was put on the city: ‘Hawiyya, it is growing dark! Hawiyya, it is growing dark!’ Then they went away toward the woodland."
“Later the Mudaffar had an interpreter who was called ‘Ismankäy Haggi ‘Ali. This ‘Ismankäy had the idea of letting the Darandollä enter the city. A message was sent to the imam Mahmud ‘Umar, who lived at Golol. The imam, guiding his
Page: 71 warriors, came south and approached Mogadiscio. Then what did ‘Ismankäy do? He spoke with the Mudaffar: ‘By now the Darandollä are near Mogadiscio, let me be accompanied by some soldiers, and I shall go to them.’ ‘How do you want to do it?’ ‘I shall do it this way. I shall come to an agreement with the leaders and make them return to the places in the north.’ ‘So be it!’ said the Mudaffar. Then ‘Ismänkäy took some soldiers with him, but without weapons: ‘Leave your weapons! We go out to conclude an agreement, not really for war.’ They put down the weaons. They went into the woodland. When they had gone into the woodland, the Darandollä came out and took all the soldiers prisoner. Then they continued the raid and entered Mogadiscio. The Mudaffar was caputred and they wanted to kill him. But he, looking at the people who had come close to him, saw among them ‘Ismankäy Haggi Ali. ‘Stop!’ he said then. ‘Before you kill me, I want to speak. O ‘Ismankäy, you are good for nothing, you are capable of nothing, you will not pass seven!’ he said. Thus was 248 ‘Ismankäy cursed. When the Mudaffar was killed, when seven days passed after his death, ‘Ismankäy died too. It happened exactly as he had been cursed.

The Darandoolle have conquered Mogadishu city and killed the Muzzaffar governor sometime between 1590 and 1625. The approximate dates appear to be corroborated by a Portuguese document dated 1624

This was my response to Xaagi-Cagmadigtee:
"Ibn Batuta visited in 1331. The Yaaquub Abgaal took over Mogadishu from the Omani Muzzaffar dynasty only about 1625. (You may have missed the post above.) Abu Bakr is said to have come from Berbera, which was the reason for some of the discussion here. It is unreasonable because of the low Isaaq population at the time to think he was Habar Awal, and there is no association with any other Somali clan. You may have noticed that the Omani-Zanzibaris are quite dark and that the Suldan wrote on the back of court documents "as was always the custom with these people." No. That doesn't work. Himyar was in Mog probably since before the beginning of the Common Era; Omanis were there beginning about 900, so I doubt they had trouble fitting in. Notice that Ibn Batuta does not mention the Ajuraan at all."
Neither the history nor my opinions have changed.
I agree with you that both the Somali and Norwegian populations have significant haplotype variances. The difficulty is that the ruling Somali elites have claimed at least since independence that there was only ONE Somalia: language and genetics. It was used to establish the 4.5 political system and to justify the expropriation and disenfranchisement of the Somali Minorities, who are calling it the ONE BS. Significant studies have shown both the problems with "ONE Somalia" and the differences and size of the Minorities, which they are saying are a third of the population.

The second article is old (1994) but notable in that it declares the Gabaweyn are indigenous and originally spoke Cushitic languages. Most Somalis consider them either Madow or Bantu.
This is from the the first article:
"Until recently, many people perceived Somalia as a country with a population of 7,000,0000 people who share one culture, one language and one religion. This was the impression given during previous regimes in order to sustain the illusion of homogeneity. One of the things that were deliberately downplayed was the existence of minority groups. Although the population of minority groups living in Somalia has not as yet been established, estimates indicate that they constitute one third of the total Somalia population; approximately 2,000,000 people. The minority groups include Bantu, Bravenese, Rerhamar, Bajuni, Eyle, Galgala, Tumal, Yibir and Gaboye. These groups continue to live in conditions of great poverty and suffer numerous forms of discrimination and exclusion."
Sadly, the article continues to confuse the Bantu with the Madowweyn, but does make this acknowledgement:
"The Bantu are believed to be descendants of Bantu communities in East and Central Africa from regions like Tanzania and Malawi, brought into Somalia by Arab slave traders. However, there are also other Bantu who are believed to be non-Somali, who lived in Somalia before the arrival of the aforementioned Bantu." The usage of "Bantu" is to be regretted.
I have seen nothing to support either of the notions: that Somalia is or was homogeneous or that Abu Bakr was a Samaale. That he was a Somali I do not doubt.
