>>20519515>Sub-Saharan dna got infused into the Hebrew gene poolFolklorist James George Frazer was saying over a century ago that the Semitic language group likely had its Urheimat in east Africa. There is still a lot of genetic continuity from Yemen to Ethiopia. The idea is that the Semites crept gradually closer and closer to civilisation and "white" people in the Fertile Crescent, absorbing more and more northern blood along the way. And yet their traditions still echo many found in the far south. Check out "Folklore in the Old Testament" for a classical overview of the topic.
