      Period with highest proportion of sites w/ prob evidence for people from N.Africa is, of course, the Roman era e.g.https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/744286383771127808 …

      @rogueclassicist The link doesn't work. Also are these sub-Saharan Africans or from Africa province, mostly modern Tunisia?

      So kind of you to explain the research to me… ;) Sadly, you're wrong, as you'd know if you'd read it. Eg. at Roman York's Railway cemetery >

          So 68% were European or Egyptian...The other 32% were Middle Eastern, & various Africans?

          No, just African — the reference populations they use are what are often termed 'Sub-Saharan' and also African American. :)

          In 4th–7thC, Mediterranean imports in the Garamantian kingdom & then Burkina Faso+Mali, if helps? And Aksum in East would count, I'd think?
