    Default An average of Afram results on 23andme

    I've added the Asian along with the African to make the results more accurate, because most Aframs have 2% or less Asian ancestry.

    Based of 88 Aframs I'm sharing with.

    Average 74% African, 26% European, which varies among individuals

    85-100% African 23 26%
    75-85% African 33 37%
    60-75% African 22 25%
    60- 40% African 10 11%

    The Euro percentage would be slightly less, but these results are accurate for the general Afram population.

    Thoughts?

    So in other words, the average Afram template would be a griffe of sorts? (Sorry for the term if it offends someone).

    Yep. Most Aframs I'm shared with are around 70-80% African.

    Fragment of a Letter written by a Spanish soldier in 1864, during the Restoration war in the Cibao.

    I take the short break we have to write and give you good news of this famous campaign, which bears no resemblance to that made ​​in Morocco. Oh, the mess that is able to annoy a saint .- we are already there, and back, and never see the result of many hardships, so much expense, and many casualties of all kinds.

    The devil take me if I see an end to this. These damned Indians are never seen, as soon as they are here, they disappear, and when we believe they have been defeated, they appear shooting, which is something they love. And I tell you they're not bad shooters. It seems as if the bastards have spent their entire life hunting, since where they aim, Jesus, they'll sure hit it. And listing they're not all armed, and the weapons they have, with the exception of the many rifles that they have taken from us, are bad. What will then happen the day that these crooks get good precision weapons?.

    You know that a soldier likes war, since that's how he gets promoted, and takes honors, but I assure you, with the word of a gentleman, this one looks bad for us.

    when are we going to pacify a country so vast? cut in all directions by mountains and canyons, populated by bastards, that live in the mountains as if it was a palace, who know the terrain like you know your bedroom ...

    Well some of us are all kinds of varied! I have cousins who are genetically more European than anything else. I have a cousin who is genetically 12% Amerind. Yet all of these people identify unequivocally as African American.

    Agreed, but I think anyone with a little understand of physical features, know that the difference between Djimoun Hounsou and Big Sean is a little Northwest European ancestry

    Most Aframs think they are pure SSA also. Even the one's who do show obvious non SSA admix. It's because the admix is so distant for the majority of us.

    Hmmm...I don't know where the notion that most Aframs think they are pure SSA comes from. I think they logically know the truth. It's just as far as they are concerned, they are socially pure SSA. That social viewpoint and sense of self-perception began with ODR and has become an engrained part of the group's greater cultural reality.
