Who is the common ancestor of Caucasians?

>tfw no average Turk gf

Some dudes who lived in the middle east in 40,000 B.C.

Lucy?

It's the skull type.

Woden

Define caucasian

Genetic research has actually revealed something very interesting.
When Homo Sapiens settled Eurasian circa 60-70k BC, some of them stayed behind while others pushed onwards to Central Asia.
It was in Central Asia where the ancestors of indigenous Europeans, East Asians and Australians diverged(or so it is presumed).
The ones who stayed behind and shared less genetic drift and less Neanderthal admixture are called Basal Eurasians, the rest just Eurasians or sometimes Crown Eurasians.

So initially the racial division of mankind in Eurasia followed a much different pattern than the Mongoloid-Caucasoid dichotomy suggests.

However, at some point there was a backflow of people related to indigenous Europeans back into the Middle East and so Middle Easterners and indigenous Europeans shared more genetic drift than Europeans and East Asians because of the mixing.

So who were the Caucasoids, genetically speaking? There's no simple answer to that question.

this

Mongoloids and Negroids need 10000 more years to ever approach the evil of the Caucasian

Those are pakistanis moron

>Head shape is the only thing that matters.

Prometheus.

This desu. People obsess over skull features while forgetting tgat Somalia and Ethiopia are basically the Africa of Africa, mismanaged 3rd world shitholes stricken with famines and civil wars and IQ so low they make Ghana or Nigeria look like genius countries.

>IQ so low they make Ghana or Nigeria look like genius countries.

But Ethiopia/Somalia has produced scientist or people that have contributed to their fields though. You can say that about pretty much most African nations

IQ is useless to really mention. You should just say poorly educated or really low on social services because the state those nations are in right now are the equivalent to many nations who were poorer in the 20th century.

>iQ
Pseudoscience

t. low IQ

Jakub

He was the creator of Caucasians, not the ancestor. You wouldn't say Professor Frankenstein was the ancestor of Frankenstein's Monster.

Picture someone from Seoul, Korea
Picture someone from Lagos, Nigeria
Picture someone from Berlin, Germany

Stop your sophistry.

It's spelled Yakub you dumbass cracka

Japheth

She looks Eurasian. She could pass as a Kazakh

15% makes you an honorary Caucasian? Then African Americans should be too. They're 25% Caucasian.

>Horn of Africa
>India
>implying everyone there isn't just mixed race

Might as well call Brazilians Caucasoid.

>In most of the 84 trees the African cluster also contains the other two sub-Saharan African populations (San and Ethiopians). When these two are not with the core Africans they tend to join the Caucasoid group.

I get that Ethiopian are closer to Caucasian than other Blacks. But what San hunter-gatherers down south do have something in common with Caucasian?

Their ancestors left Africa and then came back 20,000 years ago, bringing Neanderthal and Eurasian DNA with them
Other than that, nothing.

Bantus came from the Horn of Africa so they are Caucasian too. Checkmate

Don't rely on 40 year old research. Dismiss everything older than 3 years.

Bantus came from Central Africa. You must be talking about West Africans.

user.... I'll say it once and say it again Bantu speakers did NOT come from central Africa.

pfft 25% and that's the total average nationwide, regionally it's very big in the % like in the South. Condolezza Rice is 40% European for one example.

Who are the true Caucasians.

this

Africans. We all descended from black africans.

American blacks are on average a quarter white? What the fuck? They are blacker than most africans.
What would you say about latin american blacks? Are they 30-50% then?

Paki Punjabi here, I sent back my 23andme recently, not sure what to expect really.

This.

Also the influence of the Toba event and the resulting founder effect is estimated to have been pretty extreme, it's impossible to know for sure how things played out afterwards

You know human migration out of Africa began ~60,000 years before the neolithic revolution, right?

>On average, African Americans are of 73.2–80.9% West African, 18–24% European, and 0.8–0.9% Native American genetic heritage, with large variation between individuals

Where in the right mind did you get that a diaspora who hasn't seen West Africa in nearly 500 years that tends to have lighter skin and eyes than their "kin", and often times look/are biracial, are blacker than West Africans? No really, I want your logic on this, because no one can be this ignorant.

As for Black Hispanics, that's actually a possibility with them, if you include the same levels of "blackness" that African Americans have. There's a reason why Dominicans look so different from Haitians, despite most of the Island being of African descent: they're biracial.
