How did they become mixed? How did mixed Swahili people from the Arab slave trade end up in Somalia?
Somalis do live in those island "dhulbahante and some mj" but the islands don't have any water which is not good place to live in and no bajuni are not former slaves they're Swahili who lived in those areas
No walaal the real xamar are ethnic Somali, those u mentioned are indian "which the cadcads are actually are, they're not Arab but Indian" most are refugee or merchants they're not native folk who build the city, the reer maanyo,gibil madow and cad,ajuran,and other Somalis are the real reer Xamar, berawe is tunni X garre city they found it and they build it, the reer berawe are Indian,Persian mixed bantu who are refugees,merchants, in the city, they don't have identity so they name themselves after the city
The name kismayo is a kibajuni name from kisima yuu ( high well) , they used to live in villages in the area on the coast until they were mostly replaced by us absame and harti and now live on those islands, they see themselves as benadiris ( a term which includes reer xamar, barwanis.. ) and are of mixed somali (like garre and others), bantu and euroasian (Arabs, Persians, indians) ancestry and speak a dialect of swahili called kibajuni. They also have a sizeable community in Kenya in places like Lamu.
Walahi we should have been more expansive, No way the Ajuuran empire couldn't easily settle Australia with their good navy and army against primitive tribes
benadiris like reer barawe or reer xamar have their own tribes like hatimi, bidaa, ba fadal, shanshiyo and so on. They do have a tribal identity independant of the city like ethnic somalis. In fact there are for example hatimi who live in baraawe and are therefor reer baraawe and some who live in xamar and are therefor reer xamar.
sxb sorry for not knowing what indians call themselves
No I’m saying Somalis should’ve gotten there before them.
those lands were actually pre-somaloid land so we have every right to take itNo Imm saying Somalis should’ve gotten there before them.
Realistically, if Cushitics owened all the way down to Tanzania and lost it to Bantu Expansion. Who are the real victims here?
Who cares if its pre-somaloid. As the noble Caucasian white man taught us, 'survival of the fittest' The strong must take as much land as they can for the weak.
You yourself said correctly they are themselves partly somali and descend from those somaloids who lived there
Half bajuni and half somali did a dna test and it came back 55% Somali, somali where? 10%? Come on now, that’s not even a full great grandparent.You yourself said correctly they are themselves partly somali and descend from those somaloids who lived there
but they not pure, if we had that mindset everyone including oromo,somali bantu some afar will be somali, somalis are very unique group of people u can't just be somaliYou yourself said correctly they are themselves partly somali and descend from those somaloids who lived there
Bro I've been saying this in several threads.Realistically, if Cushitics owened all the way down to Tanzania and lost it to Bantu Expansion. Who are the real victims here?
We need a land back campaign like the yahuuds. East Africa unuka leh
They are a confederacy if I remember correctly and some of them are of garre origin and some not, so not all of them will have somali dna, it depends on clanHalf bajuni and half somali did a dna test and it came back 55% Somali, somali where? 10%? Come on now, that’s not even a full great grandparent.
