African admixture in Southern Europeans

[The Lawspeaker]

Back to the original topic: African admixture in Southern Europeans. And the first one that starts posting rubbish will, for God's my witness get a VERY HARD kick under the arse. Am I making myself very clear ? People don't need to answer: just follow up on the order or leave the thread !

You have to consider Northen and Central Italians that lacks completely of any african admixture, in fact higher IQ in Italy is found in Friuli and Veneto and lower in Sicily (86)

Beh è una cosa che disse Lynn tempo fa, non so quanto sia veritiera comunque...
In ogni caso se leggi gli interventi successivi capirai che non facevo sul serio in questo thread...

You can find on italianthro the rebuttal to Richard Lynn's Italian "IQ" Study.

His IQ lists were basically estimated based on GDP. It has no study behind it, basically because it's very difficult to determine the IQ of a nation.

"It's not just that.It is showed only 1-2% because we don't have tools to measure deep ancestry admixture.When we will have.African will be even greater in Southern Europeans.



The Bass is not a provocateur.If EastAfricans are admixed and all the time Euros point about that then why Southern Europeans are so touchy about their admixture?"

Southern Europeans are touchy about any subject.
edit: so other than pointing out the nature of the people, you can't use that to prove anything.

One needs a lot more than one or two per cent of Sub Saharan blood to start looking or acting like our friend Mr Bass, so I don't see it as a great issue.

Right: if Eastern Africans cannot be considered as "Caucasians" with around 40% of West Eurasian DNAand Western Africans are still Sub-saharians with about 8% of W.Eurasian DNA then there's nothing Sub-Saharian , even remotely, about South Europe

There is a paper about old East Asian admixture in all European populations that will be published soon according to Davidski. The "purity" of some europeans compared to other europeans will be no longer accepted. It'll fill the gap with finns, saamis, volga people and other eastern pred-european populations with already very clear and visible east eurasian affinity.
It could also show that there are no "pure" west eurasian populations anymore, since europeans are part mong, southern euros are part mong and negro (especially the latter), middle eastern and north africans are part negro and Iranians, Pakistanis & co are part negrito...ASI... or whatever it is.

Let alone various admixture levels with Neanderthal, Denisova and other archaic humans (if it happens to be true)...

What new will Davidski paper show that we do not know about?
Anyway look at the first post
