Why do yemenis look pseudo ethiopian

[dekiteshim]

how do tigrinyas view amharas? do they view them as their cousins? as family?

Ultimately we view them as family. Politics aside, I can’t differentiate between someone who is Tigrinya or Amhara until they open their mouth and start speaking. Culturally we are almost identical so I can gel with an Amhara person very easily.

How do you know somali words? Do you have somali friends?

I have Somali friends but all the word’s i’ve picked up are just from lurking online

 

[Curtana]

Some of them look xabashi. Did ethiopia colonise yemen ?

Habesha are a mix of yemenites and cushites

Axum wasn’t under the Byzantines but both were Orthodox Christian so they asked (rather than ordered) for them to intervene in Yemen.

My bad cuz u said “ordered “ which sounds like they was under the romans but you’ve made it clear
So it was more ally type interesting

Habesha are a mix of yemenites and cushites

This is disapproved

Majority of the habesha carry high Cushitic blood but with little Semitic blood but in Somali case the Semitic is much much smaller

Habesha : 70-80 Cushitic , 20-10 Semitic
Somali : 90-95 Cushitic , 10-5 Semitic

The only ones who are mix (if not more Semitic blood then Cushitic) is barwani and Cudcud

Barwanis and those people look the Yemeni the most out of everyone

@Shimbiris is it correct ?

No habesha are descended from ancient sabean and argobba mixing which made what they are today and it isn't 70-80% look how light skin they are

Majority of the habesha have Cushitic haplogroup

I don’t think skin colour tells who is descended from who to who

For example the average habesha is more likely to have rough hair but average somali with have curly 3b hair type

Mostly. But the truth about Cadcads is that they're not actually straight forward Arab-Somali mixes. The ones we have genetic samples for actually look like a fairly stabilized population with the same relative admxitures and the picture tends to be 30-40% Somali*, ~20% Desi, 5-10% Bantu and the rest isn't necessarily Peninsular Arab but a wide smattering of Middle-Eastern that could be anything from Iranian to Egyptian to Levantine to Arabian to even something far-fetched like Uzbek which, if I'm not mistaken, Shanshis even claim to originally be.


* Sometimes misattributed as "Ethiopian" by current 23andme due to how confusingly mixed they are


But yes. Even the most admixed Xabashis can be modeled as like 75% Somali and a good 5-10% of that (or more in some regions) is Mota/Omotic type admixture rather than ancient South-Arabian admixture. It seems very much like the ancient Yemenis came about 3,000 years ago, became somewhat politically dominant due to their iron-age technology, writing and other innovations but were utterly outnumbered by the surrounding farmer Agaws (Central Cushites) who absorbed and overran them before the Aksumite era.

They are mistreated in the north by the Houthis who perceive themselves as “Pure Yemenis”. The Houthis mistreat Ethiopian migrants and southern Yemenis because of their skin darker complexion

Hard to
Believe because everytime i search up houthis i see a group of men consisting of dark skinned yemenis

 

[Darood]

Wallahi this makes me so angry. Ethiopians and Somalis welcome yemenis yet this is how we are treated by then. We must deport them from the Horn of Africa.

It’s disgusting.
We allowed those Northern ones to settle and make money in Xamer back in the days.

Idk but if Ethiopians held Yemen, why are there so many Ethiopians slaves and not Yemenis? Pretty sure it was Aksum that controlled part of Yemen.

Ethiopians slaves in the Middle East were largely sourced from the Nilotic/Omotic regions of Ethiopia and Eritrea, not the Semitic speaking Habesha people who created Axum

But they were Abyssinians, there was no Ethiopia back then that had all these different groups. Bilal ra was half abysinnian and he was called Bilal ibn Rabah Al-Habashi, aka he was Habesha.

 

[Abba Sadacha]

I think this is mentioned in the quraan. They were making Christians jump into a pit f fire.
