Ancient Egyptians on GEDmatch

Looks caucasoid and wood does that m8. Originally it wasn't that dark. They did have some SSA admixture so it's not such a weird look

[Isleño]

So the Egyptians of today are white or what are you trying to say? You're proving nothing. Look at how minoas depicted themselves:


Euro-centric would be to claim them to be..... European, not middle eastern/ north African.

According to the Shuenemann et al. 2017 study, the Ancient Egyptian results clustered with Bedouins and their DNA percentages were closer to modern Bedouins of the Arabian peninsula. See how dark they are:




And according to the same study, ancient Levantines had much less SSA than today, which means they would have looked more like this Syrian:



Which would explain what we are seeing here:

Same here. My guess is one of the native populations of the region must have had some links to North Africa and Egypt.. maybe Sicanians.

Why are they so close to Sicilians and Ashkenazim?? This is incredible. I am proud

Hol' up!

bahahaha...ok, to me she reminds me of Michelle Obama, and Tut himself looked like Malia Obama

Just leave this shit going because you're starting to sound like a true afrotard.

Which would explain what we are seeing here:

Libya was a Greek colony for 800 years and even before the foundation of Tripolis by the Greeks the land is recorded to have had a white European-Levantine population by the Egyptians. For example Septimus Severus was born to an Italian Roman mother and a Punic, ie. Phoenician father in Libya.

Northern Africa was never black at any time in recorded history. The population was European-Levantine since recorded history began and before recorded history Berber, and the Brebers where of white Arab appearance.

First look at ancient Egyptian mtDNA:

http://mtdnaatlas.blogspot.com/2017/...ian-mtdna.html

Thanks to Schuenemann 2017 we finally have DNA from the ancient Egyptians. It sequenced three ancient Egyptian genomes and 90 ancient Egyptian mtDNA genomes. All of the samples come from Middle Egypt and range in age from about 1300 BC to 300 AD.

The genetic affinity of the ancient Egyptians doesn’t carry any surprises. They were native to the Middle East. With published ancient DNA we can trace their roots back 12,000 years to that region. But unlike other ancient Middle Eastern DNA, the ancient Egyptians also harbored a little bit of some sort of Sub Saharan African ancestry(5-10%).

I’ve taken a close look at the ancient Egyptian mtDNA results. So here’s a first glimpse into the mtDNA affinity of the ancient Egyptians…..

Like their genome-wide affinity the ancient Egyptian’s mtDNA is distinctively Near Eastern. Not just Middle Eastern but Near Eastern. Recall earlier this year I pointed out that modern Egyptian mtDNA shows affinity to the Near East not NorthWest Africa. They share most mtDNA first with modern Egyptians but then also Arabians and peoples in the Levant(Syria, Lebanon, etc). A mere 1%(1 sample) belonged to Sub Saharan African mHG L(xM, N). Modern Egypt though has a frequency of 20% frequency!

A handful of mHGs characterized ancient Egyptian mtDNA. 44% belonged to the following mHGs: R0a 7.8%, HV1 6.7%, J2a2 6.7%, T1a 14.4%, M1a 5.6%, I 4.4%.

Every single one of those mHGs is specific to the Near East-North Africa except for U6a and M1a which make a significant presence Iberia and many parts of Africa.

Today R0a, HV1, and J2a2 interesting all peak in Egypt. And the ancient Egyptians had as high of a frequency in those mHGs as you’ll find in any modern population. Their high frequency of J2a2(6.7%) is even more interesting considering it has been found in the Natufians. J2a2 seldom appears outside of the SouthWest Asia-North Africa. Last year I classified it Near Easter(See here). J in Europe is dominated by J1c while J1b-J1d dominates J in much of the Middle East.

R0a has a more international distribution than J2a2 and HV1. Like J2a2 it peaks in the Near East but it also surprisingly has a strong presence as far east as India. Several examples R0a have been found in Neolithic and Bronze age Jordan.

Saying the ancient Egyptians had a lot of T1a doesn’t say much considering T1a is equally popular in most of West Eurasia(from Ireland to Iran). The T1a clades the ancient Egyptians belonged to: T1a7, T1a2, T1a5, T1a8, all are Near Eastern-specific. None of them belonged to European-SC Asian T1a1. Most of my modern T1a7 samples are from Egypt. All of my Egyptian T1a7 samples belong to an unclassified T1a7 clade, it’ll be interesting to see if these ancient Egyptians belonged to that clade.

Here’s the most important differences between ancient Egyptian mtDNA and modern Egyptian+Near Eastern mtDNA: moderns have a lot more J1b, H, U3, and African L(xM, N).
