I just found out I got Eritrean blood not too long ago. Meant to read up on some things about them. If anybody has a place to start (not no fake ass Wikipedia) I'd appreciate it.

Anyone can become swole with protein and weight training. By the way what determines strength is your muscle density so having smaller frame isnt really a drawback.

Size and muscle density both contribute to strength. Nilotes have both in good abundance so your post is moot.

as for the Swahili while i'm sure some of are mixed background looking at photos i would lean toward most being straight up African:comeon:

Tippu_Tip.jpg

Tippu Tip or Tib (1837 - June 14, 1905), real name Hamad bin Muhammad bin Jumah bin Rajab bin Muhammad bin Sa‘īd al-Murghabī, was a Swahili-Zanzibari trader of mixed descent. He was famously known as Tippu Tib after an eye disease which made him blind. A notorious slave trader, plantation owner and governor, who worked for a succession of sultans of Zanzibar, he led many trading expeditions into east-central Africa, involving the slave trade and ivory trade. He constructed profitable trading posts that reached deep into Central Africa.


:camby:

Like I said, there is no evidence of admixture in Swahili populations. The Kenyan Swahili guy looks like a black African tribesman, which matches his Niger-Congo language origin. :manny:

Its a distinct look MAINLY on the Islands and Coastlines.

Studying genetic diversity on the Comoros Islands could therefore provide new insights into human movement in the Indian Ocean. Here, we describe Y chromosomal and mitochondrial genetic variation in 577 Comorian islanders. We have defined 28 Y chromosomal and 9 mitochondrial lineages. We show the Comoros population to be a genetic mosaic, the result of tripartite gene flow from Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia. A distinctive profile of African haplogroups, shared with Madagascar, may be characteristic of coastal sub-Saharan East Africa. Finally, the absence of any maternal contribution from Western Eurasia strongly implicates male-dominated trade and religion as the drivers of gene flow from the North. The Comoros provides a first view of the genetic makeup of coastal East Africa.

Swahili is not a "distinct look" limited to the Comoros islands. The Comoros islands is basically Mozambique. We're talking about Swahili from the continent where most of them live.

The Swahili is mostly Island and coastline :dwillhuh: And its obvious many have African, Indian and Middle Eastern ancestry. There isn't DNA studies on every Island or coast but it'd all look like Comoros Island.

:usure: nah bruh

Swahili are Bantu people that lived on the coast (Swahili coast) that traded and intermarried with Arabs coming from the Arabian pennisula. THey became Muslim and adopted some Arab culture. That said, there are several that look no different than mainland Bantu people but there is an Arab admixture there. Their language is a lingua franca most people that speak Swahili are not of the Swahili ethnicity

No comprehensive study exist but its common sense.

i agree for the most part but correct me if i'm wrong but the Swahili have always had an a-rab and mixed breed elite which ruled over the common/black Swahili majority.

don't think highly of these studies but surprised by that and nah it's actually not:comeon:regardless it's obvious the non Africans(mostly arabs) and mixed breed are a minority and they are easy to tell apart from prototype Swahili:yeshrug:
