Kohath was the son of Levi. Kohath was the father of Amram, Izher, Hebron and Uzziel. Amram married his wife Jochebed (the sister of Kohath) who was the father of Aaron, Moses and Miriam. What I'm saying to you is that in that admixture originally could have come the cohen marker through, particularly, Izher, Hebron and Uzziel. In other words the Cohen markers patrinial lineage does not necessarily have to come through Aaron since as you see Kohath had other sources, i.e., other heirs.

So you're saying that the Lemba might have been "black" even before they went to Sub-Saharan Africa. If so I very much doubt it. Even the darkest North-Africans and Middle Easterners are not as dark as Sub-Saharans. And well, isn't it convenient that the black Lemba happened to choose to migrate to sub-Saharan Africa instead of Northern Europe, in which case we would have had black Jews amongst a Nordic population?
