Introducing the Algerian Mitochondrial DNA and Y-Chromosome Profiles into the North African Landscap

[Sikeliot]

Tunisia and Algeria are closer to Italy, while Moroccans appear more linked to Iberians, I believe It's due to the high H.

I know. Also Moroccans have more actual Iberian ancestry from the Reconquista.

Here's more genetic studies about NAs and Levantines that might be of interest to you:

Thank you, I'm going to read all of them.

Probably. And even older. E-M81 is very old in Iberia which suggests an ancient link.

I know this study, I don't know if you know it but Algeria is very very diverse, they tested Oran, be sure that if they test Tlemcen or Maascara the results will be different.




Just compare the Mt-dna diversity between Oran, the Mozabites and the mix.

I know that Algeria is diverse and etc, i have been to that nation twice though only in Algiers and Constantine. I hope they would make a study including all of the regions in the country. Anyway, whats your opinion about the people of Oran so far?

I don't know them very much, the ones I know are cool and good people btw they're nervous lol. They love Rai, and have a Moroccan shifted culture, (there is two cultural stocks in Morocco, North-West/South-East, Algeria have 4 East "Constantine", Central"Algiers", West "Oran" and South.)

In the genetic point of view, how do you see the people of Algeria and Tunisia? Do you think the study here provided the overall picture of Algeria or is there more to the country than that?

What about Libyans? Are Libyans considered berber? Are they similar in haplogroups? I feel like Libyans are different ethnically no?

Western Libya (Tripolitania) is pred Berber, they cluster with Central-Southeastern Tunisia, while Eastern Libya is unique, but as a group they're between Deltans and West Libyans.

I don't think that Oran and Sousse are rappresentative of Algeria and Tunisia, but rather for their own cities. I have a seen a study in Netherlands they tested more than 20 location in NL, so that study would be accurate, I believe they should use more regional samples. Btw this study is rappresentative of Oran.
