Why Did These Black Pacific Islanders Look So Much Like Many Black Americans? 1492. - page 6

OP is a white russian agent

the truly pathetic thing is their disinfo propaganda campaigns are actually WORKING

you don't see Arabs claiming that they're vikings.

you don't see Koreans claiming that they're Moors.

you don't see Germans claiming that they're Aztecs.

you don't see Hispanics claiming that they're samurai.

you don't see Islanders claiming that they're Zulus.

you don't see Native Americans claiming that they're ancient Romans.

but thanks to other agents like Tariq Nasheed, African Americans will claim to be all of the above

This thread has nothing to do with Native American people. If you'd like to post pics of them start your own.

Or I could just start posting the facts on them

i was showing the post above mine what real natives looked like in the 1800s

Thank you for pointing this out, i was spending way too much time forming a rebuttal to OPs posts

Our mix came from Asia before the white man came along. Theres a lot of cultures/races around Taiwan/Phillipines it is said that they were the only that setout on double hulled canoes to found the peoples of the Pacific.

I mean we all descended from black people so is it that much a surprise that the majority of the world of brown skinned? I feel like it this is an American identity issue thats trying to be enforced on us because we don't really see simple race politics like black and white like it seems to come from America. We are who we are. We are the children of Moana Pasifika.

You’re actually dumb as fu#k sorry to tell you

thats not a real pic, its a photoshop

The guy who doesn't know the difference between Greece and France/Germany/Scandinavia wants to talk about "ret@rded"

so what happened to all these imaginary, "pure", "Black" Mescalero Apaches then? did they ride their unicorns back to Wakanda?

Oh you wanna look at Egypt now huh

WARNING: (brutal L incoming)



The tombs of ancient Egypt have yielded golden collars and ivory bracelets, but another treasure — human DNA — has proved elusive. Now, scientists have captured sweeping genomic information from Egyptian mummies. It reveals that mummies were closely related to ancient Middle Easterners, hinting that northern Africans might have different genetic roots from people south of the Sahara desert.

The study, published on 30 May in Nature Communications1, includes data from 90 mummies buried between 1380 bc, during Egypt’s New Kingdom, and ad 425, in the Roman era. The findings show that the mummies’ closest kin were ancient farmers from a region that includes present-day Israel and Jordan. Modern Egyptians, by contrast, have inherited more of their DNA from central Africans.

Archaeological discoveries and historical documents suggest close ties between Egypt and the Middle East, but “it is very nice that this study has now provided empirical evidence for this at the genetic level”, says evolutionary anthropologist Omer Gokcumen of the State University of New York at Buffalo.

Egypt’s searing climate and the ancient practice of embalming bodies has made the recovery of intact genetic material daunting. The first DNA sequences thought to be from a mummy2 were probably the result of modern contamination, and many scientists are sceptical3 of purported genetic information acquired from the mummy of King Tutankhamun4.

The latest analysis succeeded by bypassing soft tissue — often abundant in Egyptian mummies — to seek DNA from bone and teeth. Researchers carefully screened the DNA to rule out contamination from anyone who had handled the mummies since their excavation a century ago in the ancient town of Abusir el-Meleq.

“More than half of the mummies we studied had pretty decent DNA preservation,” says co-author Johannes Krause, a palaeogeneticist at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Jena, Germany.

The team “succeeds where previous studies on Egyptian mummies have failed or fallen short”, says Hannes Schroeder, a palaeo*geneticist at the University of Copenhagen. Now, researchers can hope to answer questions such as whether immigration drove ancient-Egyptian population growth, adds Sonia Zakrzewski, a bioarchaeologist at the University of Southampton, UK.

The scientists obtained information about variations in mitochondrial DNA, which is passed from mother to child, from 90 mummies. Because of contamination, the team was able to acquire detailed nuclear DNA, which is inherited from both parents, from only three mummies.

Both types of genomic material showed that ancient Egyptians shared little DNA with modern sub-Saharan Africans. Instead, their closest relatives were people living during the Neolithic and Bronze ages in an area known as the Levant. Strikingly, the mummies were more closely related to ancient Europeans and Anatolians than to modern Egyptians.

The researchers say that there was probably a pulse of sub-Saharan African DNA into Egypt roughly 700 years ago. The mixing of ancient Egyptians and Africans from further south means that modern Egyptians can trace 8% more of their ancestry to sub-Saharan Africans than can the mummies from Abusir el-Meleq.

The new data can’t explain why the ancient Egyptians were so tightly aligned with people from the Middle East. Was it the result of migration, or were the Stone Age hunter-gatherers of northern Africa genetically similar to those of the Levant? It’s too early to tell, Krause says, but there’s a better chance now of getting answers. “This is the first glimpse of the genetic history of Egypt,” he says. “But it’s really just the start.”

In another post, you said Europeans doctored accounts after the fact. Now you're saying they are trustworthy.

Most of those pictures don't look like the great majority of the African American population. And a couple pictures also aren't completely representative of the peoples you are posting.

Are you just trying to say the genetics are lying?

Otherwise, you just found some people from different populations that you think look alike. This is 19th century racist European archaeology all over again.

Re-think your claim based on evidence more than some pictures and a hunch.

God bless my people with self esteem smh

Most native cultures have a darker skin complexion.

He a white boy...

...don’t waste ya time.

I thought he was just a REAL country bumpkin on some Pimp C type sh1t

Guess he's a WHITE country bumpkin

Thicker noses are more suited for climates where the air is humid. Thinner noses for desert climates where air needs to be moistened.

Listen, you racist dirtbag latino, the overwhelming majority, as a matter of fact almost no black Americans give a fu#k about any of the people you just named.

The internet is not real.

Just because a black American researches an ethnic group or nationality and discovers that there were Black people living there and brings awareness to that fact does not mean they are claiming to descend from that group. It simply means we are calling them black.

Do you follow me, you uneducated mongrel?

If you culture vultures spent as much time tending to your own ethnic groups as you spend following black Americans around the internet, you all would be in a much better place today. Might even be in a good enough place to where you won't have to move to the United States to leech off of my people.

Man, if yall don't get this racist a$s wetback culture vulture the fu#k up outta here.

None of the people posted in here are from Fiji or any Melanesian island.

Its crazy that Hawaiians, Tongans, and Samoans look drastically different today.
