zeila mentioned and an al-makdi nisba

[NidarNidar]

I think ive said this before on here. But I think that t-haplogroup was actually eastern cushites .

It seems like too much of a coincidence after everything you mentioned on top of the fact thag the asir region the older t-haplogroup came from was a part of the tihama region where this zay'li nisba is well-known.


Although now im thinking its possible we just don't have enough t-haplogroup tested and that we'll find the older sub branches with more samples.

Not gonna say it ain't it, but we need more samples

TMCRA dropped to 2300 ybp between Somali T-BY181210 and T-Y218135 Asir Sample, it can't just be random chance they took the Nisbah Al Zaylai by chance, maybe with the collapse, we lost older documents pertaining to lineages.

Yeah the answer will be clearer with more samples. I think the t- haplogroup experienced an even more intense founder effect than e-v32 in somalia.

Theres even this post. Where they show how late iron age individuals ( so 800-500 b.c) in al-ula in the far north of Saudi Arabia had on avg 5% east african dna

To put that into perspective here is where al ula is located.

Weirdly, it's not more pronounced in Arabia if the oldest branch is found there, TMCRA is only 2900 years old, if there is a Sudanic branch older than it, that will cement it, trade in the Red Sea went bought ways.

That's probably the best place to look. The eastern cushites somalis are descended from seem to have migrated along the coast and through the eastern desert. And if that was the case it wouldn't be surprising if some of them crossed over the red sea.
