/ Give an example of what you claim above. Do you have Cavalli-Sforza's HGHG? His coancestry coefficients (Fst's)are there. So are M Nei's. A K Roychoudhury gives similar findings. So, what do "dodona people" say that violates this data? I'm talking physical anthropology, genetics and none of that what you say refute this. You bring up the same crap everytime with Cavalli-Sforza as if he's the authority, why don't you read more than one source? My original post in this thread stands unrefuted. / I'm not talking about the original post, but the one I quoted. I didnt give C-S, only, but Nei and Roychoudhury. Add Rosenberg. BTW, C-S is a great authority , because subsequent research has confirmed his work, and he is one the pioneers of population genetics. So, I ask you once again, what is the "same old crap" you're referring to? And, how do "dodona people" do what you claimed they do? And, dont do what you did last time--- ask me to "refute" something I wasnt commenting on and hadnt even read-- so remember I'm not talking about your first post on this thread but the one I quoted--- about "dodona people dividing up Africans and giving "caucasoids" an astronomical range. So, answer the question if you care to, but please dont rant and rave about something I'm not talking about and then pretend you've answered. It's your choice.

Agreed. Even v. Eickstedt put Aethiopids under Negroid, even Negrid finally, but he recognised their deviation and intermediate character. Baker on the other hand preferred morphology and put the more Europoid Aethiopids under Europid.
Speaking of Niloto-Hamits, that might be right, but the Bantus are of another category, they represent the Negrid core. Just compare typical Tutsis and Hutus, I might post plates from Hiernaux... Its obvious EA elongated type without significant foreign admixture evolved in and intermediate way and didnt participated in the forming of the (WA) Negrid core which expanded Southwards and Eastwards mainly with Bantus.
Yes they are, but morphologically intermediate and there are clearly Europid (direct, more recently) influenced EA as well, just compare with Amharas...its impossible to generalise for the whole region and by specialisation EA elongated types without significant admixture have mainly the skin-hair-proportion characteristics, even that not that extreme, other than that, skull+facial morphology, they are deviating in a Europoid direction.

Baker on the other hand preferred morphology and put the more Europoid Aethiopids under Europid. First of all, get rid of the Aethiopoid term, its as meaningless and bankrupt as "Mediterranean race". The Elongated linear type is just a subtype that has nothing to do with Europoids. Bantus are not a core race[True Negroes in disguise] of anything, they, just like the Elongated linear peoples are another subtype of Negroid. Furthermore, Tutsis are just as "Bantu" as Hutus.

Why can't you stick to the topic in this thread instead of continually rambling about a book by Cavalli-Sforza? You bring up the same sorry routine everytime. This thread is about East Africans in the fossil record, not about genes and Fst distances, post that crap in another thread but quit ruining threads with the same off-topic nonsense. Was Cavalli-Sforza right about everything? In that same book you keep talking about, he even said the Khoisan had 51% Near Eastern mixture, now is that confirmed in other genetic studies? Your arguments are always full of fallacies. And what about Rosenberg et al and how is anything that he sauid relevant to this thread? Put up or shut up, plain and simple.

As I said, Aethiopid is a term for their type no matter if you say they belong to Negroids or Europoids, or are, whats making the most sense, intermediate. Thats right, but the ethnic Bantus spread the Negrid core race so to say in many parts of Africa. Agreed. Ethnic-linguistic Bantus yes, but finally by race and subsistence closer to Massai than Hutus...

Basically, you have no evidence for a "Negrid core race" in the fossil record. It simply doesn't exist. The predecessors of modern West Africans came from the Sahara and were morphologically variable, just like present day West Africans. The concept of a "Negrid" core race[true Negroes] is pure fantasy.

The predecessors of modern West Africans came from the Sahara and were morphologically variable, just like present day West Africans. The concept of a "Negrid" core race[true Negroes] is pure fantasy. I know the records - yes, you are right, but my opinion is thats because of the poor remains, such a drastic change in such a short time without a centre is a poor explanation for the relative high homogenity of the Negrid core from Mali (Sudanid without admixture) to South Africa (Kafrid without strong Aethiopid or Khoisanid influence). The diverse skulls we see seem to be the result of constant pressure from a centre which sent "half evolved" Negrids North and pushed them away. Then we suddenly see almost exclusively typical Negrid. We can study that even better in Sudan, where the record is better because of the climate, here we see constant waves coming from elsewhere, mostly the South West as it should be according to the WA-core explanation. They push other types away or mix with them and the result are the various Negrid subtypes which deviate f.e. in the direction of Europoids, Bambutids, Khoisanids etc. The relatively rapid Bantu expansion is proven, or do you deny that too and claim "Bantu continuity"? Or the formerly much wider distribution of Boskopids-Khoisanids in East-South-East Africa?

This is nonsense and the product of a wild imagination. "Half evolved" Negrids? Whats the problem with accedpting variation? Nonsense, again, there is no proof of migrations from an alleged WA "Negrid core" into the modern region now called Sudan. This is nonsense stated in theory but not even close to being supported in the fossil record and through archaeology. Thus, what you say cannot be taken as an absolute, undeniable truth.
