Saudi Arabian Gedmatch

[StonyArabia]

Mehris are the western-most Yemenis and they look much more African-influenced than Saudis.

Like I said some Yemenis not all. Yemenite highlanders are very much identical to Saudis actually genetically.

What's the difference between Saudis, Bedouins, Yemenis and other gulfers? I always assumed theyd have their own cluster but these tests show some disparity among them.

Bedouins are nomadic tribes who usually inhabit the Desert regions in Syria, Iraq, Jordan, parts of Israel/Palestine and into parts of Egypt . Bedouins are very endogamous and don't generally intermix with outsiders, rarely do, but they have costume of adoption into tribe which occurs at times. However there are Afro-Bedouins who might skew the results. These Afros were slaves or clients who adopted Bedouin culture, but their not seen as true Bedouins. In Bedouin society you are divided into the Asli or noble tribes, these tribes like mine trace back their origins directly to the Arabian peninsula and often are camel herders and horse breeders by trade, the non-Asli Bedouin tribes are often sheep herders.

Saudis are mostly people who descent from Arabian tribes and they also for the most part endogamous, with the exception of few regions like the Hejaz which is melting pot of different Muslim cultures.

Yemenis are South Arabians, but they are diverse because it depends on their region, those from the interior and highlands are genetically close to Saudis and Bedouins.

Gulf Arabs might have some Indo-Iranian shift

They all share the same origin, with little difference that does not mean much. Saudis and Bedouins are still very close, Yemenis however do diverge but the Jewish ones don't really.

They have a 30 distance from Levantines, meaning they are super super far away.

Yes, but phenotypically I look nothing like them, but more to my maternal side. The culture that I grew up was very Bedouin. I also felt more comfortable among them. However McDonald does show it. I believe my Circassian side might be Anatolian/Turkish shifted though

Salute to the West Asian race

East African on Eurogenes is almost purely SSA, it's the SSA part of East Africans. Somalis as an example score little to no SSA on Eurogenes but 50-55% East African which matches well with the fact that Somalis are regarded almost 50-50 Caucasoid/Negroid.

Proto-Arabs originated in the Eastern Levant, around modern day Northern Jordan, where the oldest Arabic inscriptions are found and then spread south. Logically once we get Iron Age Arabic samples from this area it's pretty safe to say that they will come out close to the BA samples we have so far from Sidon, Lebanon and probably more so to the samples from Ain Ghazal, Jordan, who are quite distinct from modern day Sauids. Paternally speaking though Sauids and Bedouins are almost completely Arabian although they ptobably don't have much Arabian admixture.

[Haider]

Can you give a link on the Natufians having SSA?

Sent from my SM-G925T using Tapatalk

I didn't say Natufians scored proper SSA, but Northeast African. Which as we all know is very different from each other. Just like Saudis, who score some Northeast African, but zero SSA. Which means they've been very isolated since those times, since Saudis mostly descend from Natufians mixing with the native Arabian population.

Here's a Natufians result

Lol @ Saudis not having recent African input. The distinctively Sub-Saharan African mtdna L is around 10% in modern Saudis. This haplogroup has not been found in a single ancient sample from the Middle East, nor in modern day West Asian Christians or Jews.
