You have that Genome Analysis report? Can you share with us?

sherlock229:
Isolated tribes doesn't count. They don't represent the culture of Nigeria unlike massai in kenya. I mean You can't say sentinelese tribe represent india culture though they live on the same landmass. Meh

rationalhuman:
1. Senetalies are Blacks migrated from this continent. BTW there is no such thing like Tribes in India, There are Ethnicity and then Casts.
2. Those island is not even part of Mainland India / Same Land mass.
Its too far from India, Its actually very near to Indonesia and part of Thailand and Indonesian Seismic Zone.

rationalhuman:
Except one parameter Per Capita parameter, I guess India is far far ahead.

jln115:
Exactly!!! .... That's why I told you people don't use the phrases 1st,2nd and 3rd World anymore

edon21:
U made me waste my data.
According to that, First World countries ; South Africa, Namibia, angola
2nd world; China, india
Hmmm

edon21:

vankelvin:
Compared to
Kenya
Ethiopia
Tanzania

Chaii, who cursed East Africa?
What is this one?

Stone age days

vankelvin:

Senegal
Cote-devior
Cape-verde
Gambia
Mauritania are all great Nations in Africa

Dlonra:

pacretus:
he said EA is the anus of Africa, what a funny truth Anus and buss.y of Africa...

vankelvin:
East African is the Anus of Africa. I mean the Poorest part of Africa.

theenchanter:
he's correct..... WA over EA. In fact, he's very correct from 1-5. NA, SA, WA, EA and CA.

Go check.

Mzal3ndo:
Tanzanian smiling at the list then remembering they are also in East Africa.

vankelvin:
KENYA, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
You guys should respect your elders(West African's),
Your ego will still not make you guys rich over West Africa.

If you think you are Giant of East Africa, then its because those Countries there are not any better.
Aside those few high rise buildings you have in East Africa, what again do you people have?

How many East African Countries have 6 descent Stadiums that can host an African Tournament?
How many East African Countries can Host an African Entertainment shows like AMMA, AFRIMA and the likes?
How many people in East Africa enjoy Electricity? ETC?


Even in the worst of Conditions, West African Countries are able to Host anything organised on the Continent.
Nigerian's hosted Under 20 and 17 World Cups. With your High rise buildings were you able to host anything?
The Indians are living big whereas ordinary Kenyan's are living in the Slums.
Poor Countries don't host Tournaments okay?

West Africa have problems but East Africa certainly have nothing above us
Black Africans rule West Africa but Indian's rule East Africa.
You guys should be comparing yourselves with Central African Countries, they are your mates.

DEVELOPED REGIONS IN AFRICA
1--North Africa
2--South Africa
3--West Africa
4--East Africa
5--Central Africa

Respect West Africa.

I know Kikuyu is looking for where Kikuyus originates and when he found something near Okuyu in Ethiopia - it got him interested.

My understanding is that Kikuyu is maasai name; that basically mean lubwa, wakwavi, parakuyo - etc - it basically mean agro-pastoral maasi - someone who had abandoned the noble pastoralism for the lowly farming

Most of kenya tribes you'd be surprised to know where give names by either Maasai - to the Arabs slave traders - and those names stuck - Nandi for example is Arab name given to them by arabs.

So Kikuyu - come from Ethiopia - and head down Tanzania - and research more about PARAKUYO there. Also called baraguyu. Or maybe in Kenya Agikuyu. It means in Maasai - one of our own who has gone farming or given up on pastoralism. This term parakuyo, kwavi, lubwa - were applied by Maasai to people they thought were close to them but had become farmers - kambas, chagga, kikuyus and kalenjin.

"The Kwavi or baraguyu are known historically as a Maa-speaking group, but they have long assocation with the Bantu groups east of Mt Kilimanjaro. They are farmers, and have a lifestyle more like the neighbouring Bantu people in the Kilimanjaro area. You might find that Kwavi people identify themselves by a Bantu clan name, such as Chagga, even though they speak Maa. Likely names would be Chagga, Sambaa (Shambala) or Pare."

So basically if significant group of Maasai joined Bantu core of Kikuyus - it very likely the Maasai started to derisively refer them to parakuyo (corrupted maybe to Kikuyu)- or somebody who has abandoned the 'noble' lifestyle of cattle rearing and gone farming which the Maasai disdained. And when people would ask who those people were...Maasai would say parakuyo.

rvp2018:
I agree with you. Kikuyus are bantus (at least half of them) while Maasai are nilotes - and their closest relatives are Lotuko who occupy Juba South Sudan. Lotuko and Maasai language is very close to be one language.Maasai nearest cousins are Turkanas, Iteso and Toposa and Eastern South Sudanase and they came to kenya together

rvp2018:
Kenya migration is pretty easy.

The aboriginal were here - never left. They are part of Khoisan and speak click language. Some bantus like Xhosa down south have adapted part of their language but generally, they were so weak, they got assimilated.

Most people apart from Khoisans - hunter & gatherers - lived along river beds - because of agriculture & few domesticated animals - pastoralism not really began.

The next wave of migration to kenya was by 2 groups - proto-Kalenjin and proto-southern Kushites (oromos+somalis). Kalenjin were northmost of other nilotes - and lived around current Khartoum - the Luos and related (dinka, nuer, etc) just below them - and Maasai and related below in Juba - while the Kushites lived not far up around the Kush. This was pre-Christianity times. They went through Ethiopia eventually to East Africa all way down to Tanzania. Kushites would later split into Oromos and Somalis.

The next wave of migration was Bantus. Coming from Cameroon/Nigeria border they quickly spread thanks to their newly discovered Iron technology (probably copied from Nigeria or Chad) as they forged tools to cultivate and hack through forests. This was a massive migration that happened very quickly - as Bantus conquered the territories previously occupied by Khoisans in Central, South and East Africa. There is very little genetic or language diversity between bantus...because of the rapid migration.

The next wave of migration in Kenya was nilotes - Maasai, Turkanas and later the Luos. The Maasai arrival was momentous. They basically took territory quickly from north of Kenya to south of Tanzania. Only getting stopped by Zulu breakaway Ngonis.

Because the Maasai were very populous (largest tribe in Kenya) and had fighting spirits never seen before - many attempted to befriend them - and so even kidnapped maasai kids.Maasai also took in nearly every tribe as wives or kidnapped kids. This was true for many communities - not only the Kikuyus.The Maasai came from the theatre of war somewhere in South Sudan together with their cousins - turkanas, Iteso, taposa and those in Ethiopia - and later Luos (Luos lived north - near current Sudan) - and all were possibly escaping forced Islamization and slave trades from Arab and Nubians....and mostly thanks to acquisition of new breed of hardy zebu cows from India

rvp2018:
The last people to migrate to kenya was colonizing Europeans and their lanky Asians...and of course Nubians

any Tayser ex not in my list..maybe mufasa might accept but not me.. She is cute though

sherlock229:
they're some Eurasia admixture in some Nigerian groups too like Yorubas but very ancient




Check this out if you like
a novel signal of ancient (>7.5 ky) Eurasian admixture in the Yoruba of Central West Africa ( Gurdasani et al., 2014).

anyways some hot Yoruba girls . Yorubas are very diverse and can spot every kind phetoypes.

kikuyu1:
Ohh ishyt, the links aren't showing! Idk have all the answers but only the big picture. I had a SIGNIFICANT NOT MAJOR piece of this history here comparing Masaai/Kikuyu cooperation with what Boers did. A certain poster insists they're equally African!?
Anyway,here's one of the posts with links

Like many Southern Kyukes he was adapted from the Maasaai

TayserMahri:
Cleopatra genes spotted. Gracious woman!
As always, mtis and tyllan use what I dashed

kikuyu1:
We've done this several times before. History doesn't begin with Masaai relations in today's Kenya a few centuries ago.

It lies in Egypt, N Ethiopia a place called Kuyu Woreda which is where proto Kikuyus sojourned though there was a later migration from there 1200 ad. Here's a little incl Kao history.

[url][Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie)url]

How Kyukes and Masaai were so culturally close many Laibons were actually Kikuyu. In fact had the Brits not landed upon us we'd have been one group by now!
