Berbers?

[Psalm 73]

From a BBC article:

"...a small amount of North African and Sub-Saharan ancestry can be detected in the Spanish, it is largely absent from the Basques."

But that's not looking at North African ancestry going back 7,000 years. Because they didn't know about this earlier people group.

That’s not 7000 years old. 7000 years old is a particle in the wind.

Unless perhaps they had Gorilla Glue or fiberglass epoxy/resin.

AUUUUGH! MY EYES!

[Buttons12]

I wonder if they could be related to the Guanches of the Canary Islands, and the North African Berbers.

.......
Also, the moors controlled Spain from about 750 AD to 1500 AD. That’s going to leave some north african genes.

Possible I suppose.

But these were even before the Phoenicians!................

[Alas Babylon!]

What they won’t say is that these people were not African/Negroid. Wouldn’t want to say they were White.
