Amazigh to you, baby! Right on! This shows that, despite the continuous changes suffered by the population (Spanish colonisation, slave trade), aboriginal mtDNA lineages constitute a considerable proportion of the Canarian gene pool. This is the story I deduced from reading a lot of websites, but it was difficult to tell whether this was just old-wives tales or the real thing. Now it seems as though the ethnic cleansing wasn't as complete as has been reported. Very interesting!! Posted by: Diana at September 30, 2003 07:27 AM |
