Never mentioned that man evolved from ape. Africans are 100% Homo Sapiens. What they are referring to as Ghost DNA might just be older Homo Sapiens that lived in Africa before us and are probably all dead.

All other race of people have animal DNA in them, courtesy of their Neanderthal/Denisovan DNA. That is why white people smell like dogs when wet.

You really think Africans don't have DNA of archaic humans?? !

No. This proves to those who think the Esan came from Bini that they have it wrong. We know that the "second wave" of migration happened during the time of Oba Ewuare when many people left Bini and went to Esan. We know that when they got to Esan, they met people, a fiercely republican people, there. How did those people get there? Lazy "historians" have always filled in the gap by telling us that there was an earlier wave of migration from Bini, the "first wave". Nobody has proof of this - it's just an assumption that they must have come from Bini because where else could they have come from? Now, this finding proves that wasn't the case; it proves that the Esan are likely older than the BIni.
Stop misquoting the data. There is no difference between "Bini" and "Esan". It is the same people from the same precolonial country called Benin empire. Just two different cities of the same precolonial African country.

Esan people are not from Benin, any body who claim that is ignorant or an idiot.

When I refered to Igodomigodo, I wasn't talking about Benin. Benin kingdom started around 12 century with Ife migrant, before then people have been living in Igodomigodo for thousands of years.
There is yet to be any proof that there was ever such a thing as igodomigodo, and there is yet to be any proof that anybody migrated from ife. You guys repeat silly stories as if they were established facts. Grow up. Nobody migrated from ife. The ooni of ife and his entourage made the story up in order to claim some sort of supremacy ! Not so long ago they even tried to claim the Igbo migrated from ife, if they were not turned into ridicule during that attempt, they would be claiming Haussa as we speak. To the ooni of ife, everybody in this world migrated from ife, they just don't know it yet. But in reality, ife was a small weak village when the British arrived. The British groomed the ooni of ife as their faithful servant and elevated him as such. If you research the colonial era, you would see that the ooni of ife was a complete agent of the British empire.

Am an Esan and i know their some wierd history of we the esan people like we are isrealite descendants, but not this shit without proof
colonisation really messed up the minds of Africans. The British handed us Bibles so we started to believe we were from Israel like the people in the Bible. We confuse science fiction with actual history. The reality in the case of the Esan is well known and proven, they are part of the Benin empire.

The bible is encrypted. Most things you see there have deeper meanings.

Have you ever wondered why after God destroyed the world with the great flood, all human beings in the bible started to have a shorter life span?

Most religious books write great knowledge in simple terms.

Can you expantiate please.

Esan and bini are not the same people, the binis are Yorubas from Ife for the most part.

am from Benin and by God grace am planning a dna ancestral test in the nearest future.i would like to know the real truth between the yorubas and the Benins,since my father's family claimed to be one of the chiefs that escorted the prince to ile ife and escorted his son back to Benin if that story was true they would have definitely married yoruba women and brought them to Benin and I would like to uncover the truth through DNA test because in my father's village they speak like the yorubas and the Benins mixed together but they are recognised as binis

A significant percentage of Benin are Yorubas from Ife.

You are one of them.

The archaic dna found were the Homo sapiens that lived before us. They tested it with an older cadaver found in I think Cameroon.

I have not said they're not the same people. But you don't have the whole story - that's what I sought to clear up. Unfortunately, you're too stuck in what you think you know to even consider any facts.

Bini Kingdom is not necessarily the same thing as Bini people. The Bini people are believed to be the descendants of the Igodomigodo people. Maybe the original inhabitants of Esanland came out of Igodomigodo too - we don't know. Bear in mind that the original inhabitants of Esanland - those met by the so-called "second wave of migrants" from Bini - were republican, whereas the Igodomidogo people were not - they had Ogisos. As for the Bini kingdom coming out of Ife or not, I'll leave that one for those who love to argue about it.

Lmao, you posted a source you cannot comprehend. Your source explicitly said skin tone changed as a result of habitat when I called you out, you started insulting yourself. You've studied this for three years and you still don't know that variations in habitat changes skin tone, at least I've taught you something today, I am very sure in your next argument you'll use it.
