New Iberian paper coming soon!

Its the among the largest or even the largest genetic gap on Earth in a so short distance. So close, but so different its amazing.

Only 13km lol and you have a lot of european regions, the anatolia and the levant inside it or something close to that.

It is the cultural gap that much bigger. The attitude to Women, Human sexuality, drinks, Music Genre, Political views (free spreech etc), language, clothing, HDI, and especially religiosity is like day and night

Not really. Both Iberian and Coastal Magrabis are pred. West Eurasians genetically. Khalif-El-Bourud (KEB) aDNA samples shows that there was a population replacement of North Africa by Iberia_EN/MN EEF groups (70% Anatolian_N + 30% WHG) and from the Neolithic to the Middle Ages (when the SSA slave trade really kicked up), Coastal Moroccans were still like 70-80% Iberian_MN farmers and 20% Iberomasurian. The Gap between Mesolithic Iberian and North Africans were far bigger. Before aDNA were published, everyone thought that Mechoids and Trafoult were 'Cro-Magnon' like Paleo-Europeans on the other side of Gibraltar but when DNA result were release, Trafoult and other Iberomasurians (IAM) were far genetically removed from Mesolithic Iberians who were a pure WHG population with light eyes. IAM was like 45% Ancient North African and 55% Proto-Anatolian Hunter Gathers (Dzudzuana) and were much darker than modern day North Africans. KEB aDNA resemble modern coastal Magrabis more in pigmentation. The Mesolithic was when the genetic difference between N.A and Iberian were the biggest, not today.

Probably there were a canarian-guanche like population living on the Atlantic Coast of Northern Africa and Europe that both share today, but thats only part of the genetic of those peoples. Looking the whole genetic composition they are very far, way more than Bosforos and Dardanelos strait(turkish/turkish) or the english channel(french/english) and many others like Bering strait or Iran/UAE or India/Sri Lanka for example.

Iran/UAE is bigger if you remove minorities like Ahwaz Arabs. Persians are predominantly West Asians and be modelled as 90% Georgians 10% S. Asian (Half of the S.Asian is neolithic Iranian anyways), and pure gulf Arabs are much closer to Egyptians than any ethnic Iranic group. In contrast, West Med is either the Biggest or second biggest competent in Both NW africans and some SW european groups.The guanches are literally 80% Iberian_EN + 20% Iberomasurian but modern Iberian have 30% Steppe Ancestry and have around 15%-20% EHG admixture from the Bell Beakers, which is non-existent or low in North Africans (hence why Spaniards have Baltic and N. Atlantic scores in Gedmatch while N.Moroccans don't). Also Iberian don't have the high Red sea or East Admixture that exist in North Africa.
