It's a safe space. You can identify as a Tutsi here.

Another clue: the half is half Jamaican. No half Somalis in this one.

I'll pm you so a few more people can guess. But you're right the straight hair is not Rwandan. It's harder to tell who the half is since Rwandans look like so many diff African ethnicities.

if he was somali you would be calling him Madow looking don’t lie.

He looks Somali-like but really Rwandans have our own look. Individually, we can look like just about anyone on the continent but in a group, we are distinct. I'd say the people I've seen who look closest to us in a group are the Daatog in Tanzania.

Answer:

Also, the girl in the red circle is from South East Asia and the girl next to the blue circle, with the hand over her mouth is half Jamaican.

The Cushitic dna in Tutsi is very strong or your people have extra Nilotic genes.

Where are the dna people at @Nilotufian @Apollo

The answer is: all of the above.

The ethnic groups in Rwanda were not homogeneous. It's one of the reasons abandoning them for a united Rwandan identity makes more sense.

The "Tutsis" were formed through the union of nomadic pastoralists who entered the great lakes region from the north. They are believed to have migrated down the Nile from lower Egypt and Sudan. These people were definitely majority Nilotic with some Cushitic DNA as evidenced by their height. They formed the Rwandan monarchy and ruled for 500 years. Rwandan Kings were rarely under 6'8". Our last King was 7'2".

Shortly after their arrival, another migration happened. This group was of slightly shorter, very light skinned Cushites who came to Rwanda from Tanzania through Karagwe. They were assimilated into the ruling group.

The Rwandan Kingdom had ties to Karagwe until the very end, because of this last group.

In summary: Rwandans have two different sets of Cushite DNA (from the Nilotic group which is likely a lowland Ethiopian strain and the South Cushitic group), a whole lot of Nilotic DNA and obviously, Bantu DNA from living in a majority Bantu region. People have sex with their neighbours.

Tutsis look very elegant and I love your traditional clothing. Welcome to SomaliSpot!
