DNA proves that North Africa is the origin of the first civilization in the Middle East
DNA proves that North Africa is the origin of the first civilization in the Middle East, which is the Natufian culture created by the ancient Amazighs in the Levant, as has always been confirmed by the North African DNA results project at the link below.
Genetic studies completed by scientists in 2016 on the remains of Stone Age humans in Jordan and Israel showed that the Natufians carry the paternal lineage E-Z830, which is descended from the Amazigh lineage E-M35. The latter originated in northwestern Africa at the end of the Paleolithic Age, 35,000 thousand years ago.
According to anthropology and archeology, the Natufian culture appeared during the Mesolithic period 15,000 thousand years ago in the Levant. The Natufians expanded in later periods east and south into the desert island. They were the first to practice agriculture and early agriculture throughout the Middle East and the first to domesticate animals and manufacture pottery and tools related to the sector. Agricultural and pastoral.
These Natufians, coming from North Africa, practiced hunting deer in the Middle East, riding horses, collecting wheat, barley, and almonds, and raising cows and wild pigs. The Neolithic farmers and peasants, as well as the craftsmen of the Copper Age in the Levant and Mesopotamia (Gasulian culture, Harvey culture, etc.) are directly descended from them. Who agreed with the emergence of the first civilizations of the Middle East, starting with the Sumerian, Babylonian, Akkadian, etc. civilizations.
The Natufians are characterized by a Caucasian skull, and anthropometric studies have proven that they are related and similar to the Mauritian man, whose culture appeared in western North Africa during the last ice age, and whose bones were found in the caves of Mashta-Avalo and Tafogalt in both Algeria and Morocco, which made many researchers see the Natufians as descendants of the Ice Age Amazighs. The last ones lived in North Africa 25,000 thousand years ago.
The DNA results came in a unique genetic study years ago, which published the results of analyzes of the remains of the first farmers of the Levant dating back to the Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze era in Jordan and Israel. Which proved what was mentioned previously, as it was shown that the Nutifs carry the paternal lineage E-Z830, which is a sister lineage to the Amazigh lineage E-L19, and both lineages are descended from the Amazigh lineage Maurice E-M35, which originated in North Africa 35,000 years ago and was found in the bones of the Stone Age Amazighs in a cave. Tafogalt.
The Natufian culture remained thriving and dominant in the Levant and the Middle East until the borders of the Bronze Age 4,000 years ago, only to disappear due to the arrival of a human wave from Iran carrying the J1 and J2 paternal lineages that mixed with the Natufians in the East since the second millennium BC, as this was shown in the results of DNA analyzes from the Neolithic era. And bronze for the Levant
It is worth noting that hundreds of Arabs in all countries of the Arabian Peninsula conducted DNA tests to identify their paternal lineage, and it turned out that the majority of them share the Natufian lineage E-Z830 and the modern Arab lineage J-FGC11, which is a branch of the ancient Iranian lineage J1, the oldest remains of which were found in northern Western Iran, while the rest of the Arabs carry lineages from other Asian, African and European races. As for the level of genetic composition, it was found that the Arab, according to examinations of ancient peoples, carries a mixture of three components (the genes of the Stone Age Iranians and the genes of the Natufians due to the mixing that occurred during and after the Bronze Age, in addition to a third and very small component of the Anatolian genes of the Stone Age).
All these genetic and anthropological results confirmed that the people of the Semitic language carried out a mass migration from Morocco towards the Middle East, where they established the first civilization, the Natufian culture.
