I m married to a beautiful Berber an she now can live with me in America 🇺🇸 I’m so blessed, my friends an family says she looks like Natalie Portman . I love Berber food an culture they are very intelligent hard working people .
Alyaa Mounira i’ m tamashqt from Libya and we are berber’s w bass we are not yemenit canaan or black. We are black unter. Ma toulid ? Ma taghlam ? Ma fi taqqal khalas shut up is better
in brazil we eat a lot of food called cuscuz, searching about the history of this dish I found it is a berber food named couscous which probably came to iberian peninsula through al andalus, a fascinating thing
it make since you berber wanabe you don't have any history but slavery and some random shit we berbers grow a religion to europe you guys did nothing ...
The original "Berber" we're black Africans. The Arabs and European that now live in North Africa are invaders and have adopted the culture of the people they found in that land. Moors were black African, not Arab.
you are just another african amerrican that all of his life said i'm from africa mama africa ... indian do not look like ,japaness and they are not the same go figure and stop counting african all as black
I am amazigh, I did a DNA test it turns out I'm mainly berber and a bit european (france, italy). but well, I'm 100% kabylie from Algeria. And berbers are not black, we are mainly light olive skin with hazel/green eyes (some are lighter some are darker and it depends on climate too) and we have small noses and women have high cheek bones (very different from people from the middle east where i lived). Algerian women do NOT have nose jobs like the arabs and Persians. Also, Berbers have very deep expressive eyes, that's the way I personally recognize them no matter what they look like. we are the mediterranean race.
The true North Africans are black.You are invaders that is what it means nothing else. So are you going to say that Europeans are the true people of the Americas?
Perhaps those people know the truth and want to claim they ancestors land. We blacks all over the world have the right. Go claim Europe or the middle East.
you forgot to mention the Canary Islands, where guanches are of berber origins and although the languaje is mostly lost, customs and its gene pool is still alive in todays canarian population
why do u say they are derived from palestine ? north africa like any other region in the world had its own aboriginals. like the middle east asia or europe. they did not come from middle east
He did NOT say they originated from Palestine!!!!! He mentioned three speculative theories written by ancient historians who had prospective beliefs of where they might have come from. Herodotus believed they came from Troy, a Roman historian whom he did not pronounce the name of real well believed they originated in Persia, & the Byzantine scholar Procopius is the one that believe they came from Palestine,...not him!!!!!
hmm. is it dreaming when even Historians approved of it. is it dreaming when the Bible/Torah and Islamic text approve of it? is it dreaming when painting of ancient Egyptians closely resembles the hair and clothing style to the Afar and Somali people.
those guys you mentioned are Arabs without a doubt. and Nubia doesn't got to do with us. i never claim Egypt for us i said they are closely related to us not Egypt belongs to us. mate they called us the land of gods. search land of Punt and you'll get you answer.
As an Iberian, I feel a certain pride and catharsis knowing that part of my ancestors were Berbers. One of these days, I want to visit Morocco, where the essence of Al-Andalus lives on.
Andalusian culture is widespread alongside all of the Maghreb , not only Morocco. For example Tlemcen in Algeria has been nicknamed "Capital of Andalusi culture ". Anyways , you're more than welcome to visit anytime !
De dónde sacas que los ibéricos están emparentados con los beréberes….. fuentes por favor. Pero creíbles. Es la primera vez que escucho algo así. El ADN ibérico es mayoritariamente R1b, Atlántico europeo. Nada que ver.
@@egutiguti3337 Iberians have Berber blood. It's a fact. Our great grandmothers and grandfathers a millennium ago were Islamic Berbers and Arabs that pilgrimaged to the Iberian Peninsula and lived their for centuries until the Roman Catholic church invasion. I noticed that the Iberians that deny it are the devote Catholics that don't like the fact that our people were Muslims. Until you look past your prejudice, you can't handle the truth.
@@mohammedazeme7142 No they aren't. You are just historically illiterate or just dumb. We are true north africans and we are the same people that were here 1000s of years ago. Idk where u are from but take care of your own history and leave ours alone you degenerate.
thanks for the informations , my grandmother is amazigh moroccan (berber) from kouchatta village , and she have very white skin , red hair and blue eyes , she looks caucasian
Okay, okay... I've been skimming through the comments, and I don't think people realize that not all people from Africa are... Black. I know, it's a shocker, but it's true.
@@aliligouni7627 Big lie.Why did the berbers not cover a larger portion of Africa like the bantus? what are you trying to Justify here. The Berbers are not well-known in Africa and beyond.
but mixt with arab no body can separe us in north Africa or in Morocco my uncle arab his wife Berber my sister arab her husband Berber we are same same no deferente we are 1.
Wiil Waalan moors are(berbers and arabs) Berbers and Arabs are two built the civilization of Andalusia the Berber and Arabs were always United and spread Islam toghether many of them. mixed and disobeyed and fit but when frensh colonized us frensh used dangerous political DIVIDE and RULE now there some Berber in all north Africa Fanatics want problems with Arabs north Africa. BUT this Arabs become no pure 100% are mixt with them they have blood Berber too even some of the Berber they analysed and foud have a proportion of Arabs blood and Arabs or Berbers North Africa too have a similar DNA and close to Spanish and portugues. some Berber want a republic Berber independent of Arabs but. this Arabs have blood Berber too most of this Berber need trouble in north Africa they live out sid in eauropa or Canada or america they are out side.
Just done my Heritage DNA thing. I'm a true Brit, all my known ancestors are from these islands. Guess what came up amongst the Anglo-Saxon, Viking, and Celtic profiles. Berber at 1.7% along with Italian 6.5%. Apparently after the Romans invaded Britain they had a garrison of about 500 Berber troops up at Hadrians Wall. I truly believe I am descended from one of these soldiers. 500 was a lot of people back in those times. How else would I have Berber ancestors in Protestant England?
There was also a legion from Spain stationed in Britain. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legio_IX_Hispana The 2011 movie The Eagle is based on the book The Eagle of the Ninth.
+Mouad Bounabi which is not the same because unlike what the Europeans did in the Americas there were no notable human losses or exterminations, except maybe for the berber revolts...the oppression is another story though
+Zannati Which held them back for a brief amount of time, but my point still stands, there is a difference between extermination (N.America, or even some places in S.America) and cultural/religious/linguistic assimilation (N.Africa), which obviously was not that successful but still..
Thank you for sharing. My ancestral origins are from this region. We where all free people and so was all wildlife. I have brother from Morocco brother whose helping me understand this region better. I also met a brother from Niger. . A Zebra is black until a few days before birth when the stripes appear. Each Zebra has it own unique stripes and each of us have our own unique skin tones. Peace and Love
@@wewewowo960 In its shortness its totally unintelligable. About 9000 years ago early farmers moved from anatolia and the levante into europe and mixed with the local hunter gatherer. So every today european has some part from the near east. There was a third population that moved into europe from the steppe north of black sea and caspian sea. They brought to europe horses, wagons, bronze, the indoeuropean language and the pest. So every european today has some of that too.
@@wewewowo960 Why would german romans and celts (or even white sla.ves for that matter)adopt the amazigh culture from food, clothes and traditions and speak the amazigh language, and their dna is north african ?
anoniempjeeeuh "Using anthropology, etymology, and quoted comments from the Egyptians themselves, we have no trouble in tracing the "Tawny Moor" or white Berber to the group known as the Libyan and from the Libyan to Tamahu. Besides the historical accounts of these 'whites', which is demonstrated on the farmed palate of Narmer-Menes(if we are taking into consideration visual evidence), and the statuary of Rehotep and consort Nofret, we have the written testimony of these 'white' Libyans on the Wady-Magharah which contains several memorials to the ancient kings of Egypt. The Wady- Magharah states that in the Sixth Dynasty, "Pepi I. Was the conqueror of the Tamahu...the foreign people who in this time dwelt in the valley of caverns [cavemen]." (Ivan Van Sertima, Golden Age of the Moor, pg 16).
Rita Maria It's funny how people think North Africa was first inhabited by whites. Check out the founding of Morocco for example: "Yusuf was Abu Bakar's cousin and so naturally was a black African. DuBois describes him: "Yusuf their leader (the Almoravids), was himself a Negro. The Roudh-el-Kartos,' a Moorish work, describes him as having 'wooly hair' and being brown in color" (76)Yusuf proved to be a wise and capable leader."In the year 1062 Yusuf laid the foundation of the town of Morocco with his own hands, and not long afterwards declared the independence of the northern kingdom of which it was to become the capital."(77) Thus, a black moor appropriately founded the city of Morocco. (Ivan Van Sertima, Golden Age of the Moor, pg 173).
Most Algerian, Moroccans, Tunisians are Berbers and even the ones that have in themselves Arab genes that gene will not even reach the 60% in most cases means that even the people who claim they Arabs they are in fact not. Also one thing to mention is that recent DNA studies showed that Berbers shared a common ancestor with the Sami people which are tribes living in countries like Norway, Sweden, Russia and others. This might also explain the variation and complexity of the Berber genome in general.
***** They are not heavily mixed. The Berber genome in most of North Africans is present in higher percentage than all the genomes you mentioned above. And this is without counting the m-DNA (Only passed through the mother).
***** You are wrong. Most scientific papers dont agree that the Maghreb populations are heavily mixed. A complex genetic history yes but not heavily mixed cause the isolation of the populations in the Maghreb lead to the appearance of the Berber marker. So most of Maghreb people have more genes in common and are not so different. Cause if this was the case then why we dont see distinctive differences between Algerians or Moroccans or Tunisians?? Whether in culture, language, or even appearance. For example in Latin America they are also heavily mixed but you can still clearly tell the Europeans from the Natives. So I wouldnt say that North Africa is heavily mixed but rather had varied influences from different places that contributed to the population of today. And our original culture is Berber and not Arabic. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_history_of_North_Africa
We ( imazighen ) are the true natives of N.A we are NOT arabs and we will never be. We will remain amazigh for ever ! For information, the touaregs have a very high sub-saharian admixture so they are afro-berbers afrocentrics love to say that touaregs are the true berbers because they are black which is false. Berbers were never black they were diverse pale skinned to brown. Nice video btw.
FALSE!!!!!!!!! BERBERS ORIGINATED FROM THE SAHEL FULANI REGION IN AFRICA 10 THOUSAND YEARS AGO, THEY MOVED TO NORTH AFRICA BEFORE THE SAHARAN D/ESSERT WAS FORMED. WHEN THE DESSERT CAME TO BE THE BERBERS WERE ISOLATED FROM THE REST OF THE AFRICANS AND OVER TIME EVOLVED TO BECOME LIGHTER, BUT WHITE BERBERS ARN'T TRUE BERBERS AS THEY ARE MIXED IN FROM PRE ISLAMIC AND CHRISTIAN AND PHONECIAN SETTLERS.
The Berbers are a quite variable group, ranging from very skinned, blue/green eyed, Germanic/Celtic appearing individuals to somewhat Sub-Saharan, black appearing individuals, friends.The famous early Church Father of the 4th-5th Centuries AD Saint Augustine of Hippo was a Berber.He was reported to have somewhat non-European features.Also, friends of his found it somewhat amazing when he spoke Latin because of his North African accent.Merci beaucoup, mes chere amis,and God bless you.
I meant "very light skinned".Also, Saint Augustine was a very brillant philosopher,and theologian, friends.He conttibuted greatly to the develpment of Christian Philosophy, and Theology, God bles his dear memory.
Amazigh AFRICA its not the most arabized . Actually by the time arabs came or even romans before them tunisia was already only partly berber since phoenicians heavily settled there more so then in other north africans regions ... even their language was called punician not berber . Punician = phoenician + berber
Well I'm amazigh or how some of you call it, 'berber'. I speak tmazight and tmazight only. I've been searching a long time for answers. I can confirm that we are our own race. Some things in your video aren't facts I must say. First of all, there are no arab people in north-west Africa, only arabized amazigh people who lost their identity through the century/centuries. Centuries of arabism through Africa made this horrible thing happen. The assimilation happens in Egypt only but still there are people in the east of Egypt at the Siwa Oasis who fully stick to their roots. You can call Egypt a 'buffer-zone' so to speak. Also, there are imazighen who are very dark. They ae found in the south of Morocco, south of Algeria, south of Libya, in Mauritania, Mali, Niger, North of Nigeria, and in the north of Chad. The amazigh haplo-group is E, a whole other Y-DNA profile. West-European haplogroup is R (R1B) and the arab is J. These three are in no circumstance the same.

Well I'm pure berber kabyle but half of my family are blond ( even with blue/green/hazel eyes). Everybody is light skinned and the rest don't even have black hair, but chestnut hair color. Born and raised in France but even my family their in Kabylie are not even tan, they're bonde /chestnut color hair with colored eyes. BERBER IS A MYSTERY . Help LUL
Nas 94 there are 3 reasons why berber are blonde 1) because there is a germanic people from germany/danmark/west poland named "vandal" who conquered and mixed with berber from 429 to 534 you can google them "vandals" 2) the 1.5 millions white european slave during ottoman empire 1515-1830 + the foreign european workers in ottoman empire. about 25% mixed with a local berber & another 25% of them simply assimilated to the berber ottoman society 3) when they conquered spain and portugal. they also mixed with the blonde wisigoth (germanic tribe that conquered and lived in spain)
Nas 94 when the vandals were defeated by byzantine roman empire in 534. they all fled to the moumtain of kabylie/aures/morrocan atlas why? because roman empire were looking for them. and they know roman would not bother do the high difficult task to search all the mountains of north africa (it takes too much energy and time). so they took refuge in the mountain. mixing with berbers their allies but some were soo scared of the roman that they fled mega west until the berber canary islands & they mixed with the locals so the guanche are germanic vandals refugee that escaped roman empire & mixed with their berbers allies. assimilating their culture
Nah you europeans are just making problems everywhere else with neocolonialism and exploitations and violent foreign policies following united warmongers of america
Many Roman emperors were also Berber/Amazigh. We are under heavy attack by the racist arab nationalists in North Africa, especially Morocco and Algeria. We could use the support of other powers in the world in order to establish regime changes in this region and give the Berber people their own land.
Afghan Lion support what your own country is shit hole.People having sex with children especially boys all over your country focus on that inseatd of African history.
ⵔⵓⴽⴰⵜⴽⴰⵜ really and you know Phoenicians your ancestors arabs stop speack baad about arabs you have blood arab other things arabs marry and mixt and fused with amazigh and not destroyed our ancestors amazigh without lie about your self hamdolilah we happy to be arabs and berbers originaly berbers are arabs from yaman
hey thank you for your quick and efficient clarification of skin color among Berbers accross the magreb and fezzan. Really very helpful and organizes where these pigmintations differ in geographic location. it was a very confusing thing to picture in my head before, but after this video, I can organize it geographically.
Nice video only the Berbers/Imazighen single Amazigh are not the decendents of Arabs in North Africa they are the indigenous people of this region, the indigenious caucasoids of Africa. thanks for sharing.
I am berber from Algeria (Kabyle). My family is very white skinned with dark/blond hair and brown/hazel/green eyes mixture. My DNA results: 38% Italian 15% Iberian and 47% North African Berber.
I'm Amazigh from Morocco 🇲🇦 there is a lot of things on our civilization, history, culture..... In any case thanks for that, I'm really appreciate it ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm Canadian born of Portuguese parents from the Azores. I was told that my fathers side may have Berber. Berber people are NOT Arabs. They were mountain tribal people and were forced to convert to muslim during the invasion. I was told some escaped to Portugal and went to the Azores. Berber people are absolutely beautiful!!!
I just found out im 14.2 Berber😂And my distant relative is Ramses lll. Im so shocked. Crazy thing is I always felt i was😁❤Now I see where i get my looks come from. Absolutely amazing.
Some Berbers/Kabyles came to America shortly after the Columbus discovery. There are mixed into the USA population mostly in the Southern Appalachia mtns of southeast USA. They have the same phenotype as the Berber of N. Africa; wavy hair, blue-green or dark eyes. Olive skin and heavy body hair in the men. Most have very black hair.
I ended up here because I saw a map on Reddit about different ethnic groups around the world and I saw in the northern part of Algeria (and other parts of North Africa) a different color than the surrounding areas. I became interested in Bebers. My mother is Iberian and my father(sadly who I do not know) is of Algerian origin. My mother, growing up, would tell me how my step brothers are blonde with big blue eyes. I never understood why I came out so blonde if, in fact, my father was "Arabic". Thanks to this video I have a little bit more information about my background. Maybe I am of Berber descent. COOL!
This is very interesting! I'm Mexican decent and my mothers last name is Berber which not very common last name in Mexico. The spanish conquistadors came with that last name to the americas. I'm guessing my ancestors were Berber people?🤔
My great grandma was Berber. She had light skin, and green eyes. My dad says the reason the Berbers origins are a bit of a mystery is because they were from the sunken city of Atlantis. I don't know how much of that is true, but you never know the possibilities. The ocean is a big place, and so is the history of people.
people here in the comments are saying they originally are black . while the people over there litterly don't care they life with white , black all together because they all share the same religion Islam.

Thank you very much - I am German / celtic origin, and always thought the Berbers where partly Wandalen / Vandals, Germanic people. Also I read about Phoenicea.
Berbers are berbers north africans, they are not europeans, not black sub-saharan, not arabs. Berbers are mediterranean people who were inluenced by many mediterranean cultures, like : Phoenician, greek, Roman, Vandals, Visgothic Iberian culture, ect. I'm Berber from Morocco.
Yes! your people is a rare people deserving their own nation that represents you. It is a shame that berbers are not that well known throughout the world.
Berbers are not related to Vandals, we are related to the Egyptians, Western Greeks and Southern Italians, essentially peoples with a high amount of E1b1b haplogroup.

ⴰⵙⵉⵔⴻⵎ ⵏ ⵟⵍⴻⵍⵉ Wow! That's interesting. Marcus Garvey added the last part of the phrase which says "at home and abroad"! You and I should be good friends! As a pan-africanist myself, I would like to know your thoughts on pan-africanism as well! 👍😊
r s j You call yourself a "pan-Africanist"? You do realize that Dr. Clarke and Dr. Ben (who were all pan-Africanists) all suggested that Black African people should be wary of regarding the Arab and these Arab Berbers as our allies?
Earthling Crusader what the fuck are y talking about!!!! we are the only people, the only civilisation in the world which did not know slavery. we as berber we call our selves "Amazighs" which means free men !!! but if y're speaking about Arabes this is another story !! they have nothing to do with us neither mentally nor physically !!
beatiful, the berber are the people who understood and apply democracy since long time ago (albert camus). in 2016 the berber language is official in algeria. the most beatiful thing about those people is that they are black, white, or betwenn them they all have the same origins. and they all consider themselves as same : amazigh and they speak the same language; thank you
I’ve met people over the years who thought Morocco, Algeria, and Egypt are in the Middle East. The problem is people are reading whitewash history. The history of North African didn’t start with the Middle East. My West African Ancestors were mix with Berber. The Berbers are not Middle Eastern. Stop separating North African from the rest of Africa. It’s also sad how the dark skin Berbers are been treated in North Africa.
@Antoine Shelby they are not BLACK, they are dark brown, due to receiving sun light for ages, and mixing with sub-saharan for ages, that's why the DNA showed that the south you go, the more presence of sub-saharan DNA is found.
Only an ignorant would claim such thing . Educated people are aware of North African not being white , Arab or European they are African just like any other Africans in the same continent. The majority who claim to be Arab happen to be Muslims who were Arabized and have adopted Islam. But Arabs and Islam have nothing to do with Ancient Egypt or any other North African ancient civilization.
The name Africa is derived from Berber Ifri! The Ifri were a Berber people during the Romain times. The Romans thought that all the other Berbers were Ifris so they used the name to call Nord Africa "Africa".
Actually Tunisia (Tunis) -today-used to be called Afriqiya Africa and it includes Tunisia Algeria Morroco and some part of lybia the name has changed only after few hundreds years afterthe Islamic Envasion to north africa... the rest is history
And I thought for one second that you were a God too! do you know why a typo is ? Although I speak and write in 5 languages, I am a Kabyle and English is not exactly my first language. Give me a break!

SCIPIO AFRICANUS! the Roman general who burnt Carthage to a crisp.
nope, more likely Greco-Romans from the greek colonies established there around 1000 BC according to Herodotus and later from the conquest of Alexander and the Ptolemaic dynasty who ruled Egypt for 275 years, as much as 30 percent of the population of Faiyum was Greek during the Ptolemaic period. The last Pharaoh was a Greek princess, Cleopatra. After that the Romans took control and they recorded that in some cities the populations were mostly greek or mixed greek and native. so sorry.
My new boyfriend in Tunisia is Berber..he is the sweetest cutest guy..always smiling and laughing with dimples..beautiful inside and outside..he asked me for marriage..I said yes!! Xo 😘😘😘😘💝💝🎈🎁
Well now you have. I'm an amazigh, from the northern-Moroccan tribes, 'ibdarsen'. Born and raised in Europe though but still I speak tmazight. Netsh tsawwaregh tmazight, wayigesayi shay edziyregh immen inoe, tsiwwireghth hemyè hemyè waha. Thewhen geffi. What I'm curious about is, you're an amazigh who was born in Russia?
***** Hahaha that's tight. Shek zi igzenayen, nishan keshek oudsed geffi. Got family from that tribe. You guys are from Midar and further, if you are driving from Driouch. Not that far actually.
I've often wondered if Amazigh ended up as Altlantean as it went from ancient Tmazight through ancient Egyptian and into ancient Greek. A high culture with it's own language, writing system, norms and customs, but with no defined point of origin is mysterious. Yet it is found among various Mediterranean cultures from N.A. to Spain, to Israel, and beyond. It seems like a people that were scattered a long time ago, but held onto the majority of their deeply rooted culture. It's a beautiful mystery surrounding a very interesting culture.
I think barbars were part of larger African sub-race closely related with the people inhabited North Eastern part of Africa. You may mistook them as Eritrean somalis or Ethiopians . Besides, early historians called somali cost "Land of black barbars" and evidently, Barbara port city still exist as thriving modern city in Northern Somalia 's gulf of Adan. Disclaimer: Am not out to distort anyone's history.
Berbers are Somalis that came from the city port of Barbara called Berbera by non Somali's. They settled in morocco and married non Somalis and as a result their skin color has changed. There is DNA evidence that backs this up.
+Abz Zay One fact we should appreciate is that barbars people are of all colours. dark, brown and fairly white. All in all. I found worth full to learn history through sound dialogue and I found your explanation quite quit educative. Thanks Brother.
+Mourad Pasha the Somalis are paternally closely related to other Afro-Asiatic-speaking groups in Northeast Africa.[77][78][79] Besides comprising the majority of the Y-DNA in Somalis, the E1b1b1a (formerly E3b1a) haplogroup also makes up a significant proportion of the paternal DNA of Ethiopians, Sudanese, Egyptians, Berbers, North African Arabs, as well as many Mediterranean populations.[78][80] Sanchez et al. (2005) observed the M78 subclade of E1b1b in about 77% of their Somali male samples.[77] According to Cruciani et al. (2007), the presence of this subhaplogroup in the Horn region may represent the traces of an ancient migration from Egypt/Libya.[79] After haplogroup E1b1b, the second most frequently occurring Y-DNA haplogroup among Somalis is the West Asian haplogroup T (M184).[81] The clade is observed in more than 10% of Somali males generally,[77] with a frequency peak of 82.4% among Somalis in Dire Dawa.[82] Haplogroup T, like haplogroup E1b1b, is also typically found among other populations of Northeast Africa, the Maghreb, the Near East and the Mediterranean.
my parents are both from Mexico and I grew up in the united states. both parents last names are normal Spanish last names but my grandmother (mothers side) her last name is Berber......now after looking this up I can see how far beyond name goes and where I'm from.
if you're white skinned it could be true but if you're brown skin you're native American not a Berber. most Mexicans have Hispanic names from colonization. just like how blacks have white names like johnson or James but no where in Africa is James a African name don't be confused by the white man.
I have some Amazigh from a gggg....grandmother years ago who settled New York. She was from Fes and Atlas mountains. I love the food and music. I was surprised it came out in my DNA! Can't wait to visit Morocco! 😀
Why do your people keep saying all berbers are white Europeans? You look brown to me? They hate the Arabs and black Africans judging by the comment section.
It's a shame they have to be categorized as a race they are not. I loved this video. I didn't know much about the Berbers until today. Thank you. They are pure Africans.
Berbers: These are the light-skinned Africans not related to Arabs by DNA. Arabs went to North Africa in the 7th Century. The Ottoman Empire in Morocco'/ Algeria in the 11th Century. French Montana ( Musician) and Muammar Qadaffi are both Berber. The Amazigh are not Arabs ( Saudi Arabia/ Kuwait). They are not by DNA the same as Black Africans ( Kenya/ Nigeria). They are a unique Mediterranean People.
Turkish did go to Morocco' and make many babies. There is Turkish Blood in Morrocco. People in Morocco seem to be proud of their Arab and Turkish History. North Africans are Amazigh!
Yes we are Amazigh, But Know that Islam is our faith. God doesnt distinquish ur human origin, Arabs are the ones WHO speak arabic, its not a race this is what the prophet Muhammad Said, now, in truth all muslims Are amazigh, free of monarch rule and the only one WHO should ever determine the fate of our lively hood is God. Again, the berbers is a proud and strong folk, that is why salahuddin placed berber warrirors to guard al-Aqsa m, we are recognized and honored. But dont fool ur self with arrogance as on the day of judgement we shall all be judged equally in the fairness of God.

The original "Berber" we're black Africans. The Arabs and European that now live in North Africa are invaders and have adopted the culture of the people they found in that land. Moors were black African, not Arab.
you are just another african amerrican that all of his life said i'm from africa mama africa ... indian do not look like ,japaness and they are not the same go figure and stop counting african all as black
I am amazigh, I did a DNA test it turns out I'm mainly berber and a bit european (france, italy). but well, I'm 100% kabylie from Algeria. And berbers are not black, we are mainly light olive skin with hazel/green eyes (some are lighter some are darker and it depends on climate too) and we have small noses and women have high cheek bones (very different from people from the middle east where i lived). Algerian women do NOT have nose jobs like the arabs and Persians. Also, Berbers have very deep expressive eyes, that's the way I personally recognize them no matter what they look like. we are the mediterranean race.
According to some melaninated slave-descended intellectuals from the US of A, we're just Arab and European invaders, because... reasons.
Some Dude Berbers were enslaved by Greeks And Romans And arabs.
i have small nose small mouth and ears big eyes and thick eyebrows olive skin does that make me qbayli
The true North Africans are black.You are invaders that is what it means nothing else. So are you going to say that Europeans are the true people of the Americas?
Perhaps those people know the truth and want to claim they ancestors land. We blacks all over the world have the right. Go claim Europe or the middle East.
you forgot to mention the Canary Islands, where guanches are of berber origins and although the languaje is mostly lost, customs and its gene pool is still alive in todays canarian population
why do u say they are derived from palestine ? north africa like any other region in the world had its own aboriginals. like the middle east asia or europe. they did not come from middle east
***** thank you! All my respect to kurds too (from tunisia)
KURD MEANS STRONG! respect to you 2
History says the berbers were the first humans to arrive in the maghreb at least 10,000 years ago;so that makes them native north africans.
He did NOT say they originated from Palestine!!!!! He mentioned three speculative theories written by ancient historians who had prospective beliefs of where they might have come from. Herodotus believed they came from Troy, a Roman historian whom he did not pronounce the name of real well believed they originated in Persia, & the Byzantine scholar Procopius is the one that believe they came from Palestine,...not him!!!!!

Just done my Heritage DNA thing. I'm a true Brit, all my known ancestors are from these islands. Guess what came up amongst the Anglo-Saxon, Viking, and Celtic profiles. Berber at 1.7% along with Italian 6.5%. Apparently after the Romans invaded Britain they had a garrison of about 500 Berber troops up at Hadrians Wall. I truly believe I am descended from one of these soldiers. 500 was a lot of people back in those times. How else would I have Berber ancestors in Protestant England?
There was also a legion from Spain stationed in Britain.

anoniempjeeeuh "Using anthropology, etymology, and quoted comments from the Egyptians themselves, we have no trouble in tracing the "Tawny Moor" or white Berber to the group known as the Libyan and from the Libyan to Tamahu. Besides the historical accounts of these 'whites', which is demonstrated on the farmed palate of Narmer-Menes(if we are taking into consideration visual evidence), and the statuary of Rehotep and consort Nofret, we have the written testimony of these 'white' Libyans on the Wady-Magharah which contains several memorials to the ancient kings of Egypt. The Wady- Magharah states that in the Sixth Dynasty, "Pepi I. Was the conqueror of the Tamahu...the foreign people who in this time dwelt in the valley of caverns [cavemen]." (Ivan Van Sertima, Golden Age of the Moor, pg 16).
Rita Maria It's funny how people think North Africa was first inhabited by whites. Check out the founding of Morocco for example:
"Yusuf was Abu Bakar's cousin and so naturally was a black African. DuBois describes him: "Yusuf their leader (the Almoravids), was himself a Negro. The Roudh-el-Kartos,' a Moorish work, describes him as having 'wooly hair' and being brown in color" (76)Yusuf proved to be a wise and capable leader."In the year 1062 Yusuf laid the foundation of the town of Morocco with his own hands, and not long afterwards declared the independence of the northern kingdom of which it was to become the capital."(77) Thus, a black moor appropriately founded the city of Morocco.

Most Algerian, Moroccans, Tunisians are Berbers and even the ones that have in themselves Arab genes that gene will not even reach the 60% in most cases means that even the people who claim they Arabs they are in fact not. Also one thing to mention is that recent DNA studies showed that Berbers shared a common ancestor with the Sami people which are tribes living in countries like Norway, Sweden, Russia and others. This might also explain the variation and complexity of the Berber genome in general.
Rc Enhancer yes that is true
Rc Enhancer they also share a little with somalis
barbers are Cushitic like Somali's.
***** They are not heavily mixed. The Berber genome in most of North Africans is present in higher percentage than all the genomes you mentioned above. And this is without counting the m-DNA (Only passed through the mother).
***** You are wrong. Most scientific papers dont agree that the Maghreb populations are heavily mixed. A complex genetic history yes but not heavily mixed cause the isolation of the populations in the Maghreb lead to the appearance of the Berber marker. So most of Maghreb people have more genes in common and are not so different. Cause if this was the case then why we dont see distinctive differences between Algerians or Moroccans or Tunisians?? Whether in culture, language, or even appearance. For example in Latin America they are also heavily mixed but you can still clearly tell the Europeans from the Natives. So I wouldnt say that North Africa is heavily mixed but rather had varied influences from different places that contributed to the population of today. And our original culture is Berber and not Arabic.

We ( imazighen ) are the true natives of N.A we are NOT arabs and we will never be. We will remain amazigh for ever !

Berbers were never black they were diverse pale skinned to brown. Nice video btw.
Please STOP saying the word Berber. It must disappear. It is time that everyone learns and knows who an Amazigh is.
FALSE!!!!!!!!! BERBERS ORIGINATED FROM THE SAHEL FULANI REGION IN AFRICA 10 THOUSAND YEARS AGO, THEY MOVED TO NORTH AFRICA BEFORE THE SAHARAN D/ESSERT WAS FORMED. WHEN THE DESSERT CAME TO BE THE BERBERS WERE ISOLATED FROM THE REST OF THE AFRICANS AND OVER TIME EVOLVED TO BECOME LIGHTER, BUT WHITE BERBERS ARN'T TRUE BERBERS AS THEY ARE MIXED IN FROM PRE ISLAMIC AND CHRISTIAN AND PHONECIAN SETTLERS.
DatFaceClan . Thanks for clearing that up. I knew the light skin was not true natives.
the true amazigh are the twargue they have the original ADN of North Africa the rest is mixed between Arab and European
Tuareg are Hagarenes or children of Hagar. Berbers are canaanites according to ibn khaldun.
The Berbers are a quite variable group, ranging from very skinned, blue/green eyed, Germanic/Celtic appearing individuals to somewhat Sub-Saharan, black appearing individuals, friends.The famous early Church Father of the 4th-5th Centuries AD Saint Augustine of Hippo was a Berber.He was reported to have somewhat non-European features.Also, friends of his found it somewhat amazing when he spoke Latin because of his North African accent.Merci beaucoup, mes chere amis,and God bless you.

Well I'm amazigh or how some of you call it, 'berber'. I speak tmazight and tmazight only. I've been searching a long time for answers. I can confirm that we are our own race. Some things in your video aren't facts I must say. First of all, there are no arab people in north-west Africa, only arabized amazigh people who lost their identity through the century/centuries. Centuries of arabism through Africa made this horrible thing happen. The assimilation happens in Egypt only but still there are people in the east of Egypt at the Siwa Oasis who fully stick to their roots. You can call Egypt a 'buffer-zone' so to speak. Also, there are imazighen who are very dark. They ae found in the south of Morocco, south of Algeria, south of Libya, in Mauritania, Mali, Niger, North of Nigeria, and in the north of Chad. The amazigh haplo-group is E, a whole other Y-DNA profile. West-European haplogroup is R (R1B) and the arab is J. These three are in no circumstance the same.

Nas 94 there are 3 reasons why berber are blonde
1) because there is a germanic people from germany/danmark/west poland named "vandal" who conquered and mixed with berber from 429 to 534
you can google them "vandals"
2) the 1.5 millions white european slave during ottoman empire 1515-1830 + the foreign european workers in ottoman empire. about 25% mixed with a local berber & another 25% of them simply assimilated to the berber ottoman society
3) when they conquered spain and portugal. they also mixed with the blonde wisigoth (germanic tribe that conquered and lived in spain)
Mathew Van Ostin what about the guanches, the indigenous people of canary islands ?
Nas 94 when the vandals were defeated by byzantine roman empire in 534. they all fled to the moumtain of kabylie/aures/morrocan atlas
why? because roman empire were looking for them. and they know roman would not bother do the high difficult task to search all the mountains of north africa (it takes too much energy and time). so they took refuge in the mountain. mixing with berbers their allies
but some were soo scared of the roman that they fled mega west until the berber canary islands & they mixed with the locals
so the guanche are germanic vandals refugee that escaped roman empire & mixed with their berbers allies. assimilating their culture
Mathew Van Ostin Some historians say that the berbers are the first europeans, what do you think of that ?
Berbers are Welcomed to Europe and yeah they even didn't makes any problems to us Europeans

This is very interesting! I'm Mexican decent and my mothers last name is Berber which not very common last name in Mexico. The spanish conquistadors came with that last name to the americas. I'm guessing my ancestors were Berber people?🤔
What's your last name?? I'm very intrigued.
My great-grandparents came from Spain and I have the last name “Berbel”. In my case, the R was replaced by the L. Does it have any relation?!
I'm Brazilian and my DNA is 9% Berber. Greetings my friends.
My great grandma was Berber. She had light skin, and green eyes. My dad says the reason the Berbers origins are a bit of a mystery is because they were from the sunken city of Atlantis. I don't know how much of that is true, but you never know the possibilities. The ocean is a big place, and so is the history of people.
people here in the comments are saying they originally are black . while the people over there litterly don't care they life with white , black all together because they all share the same religion Islam.
alicia v Yea everybody is human once we unveil the truths of who's the invader lol.
It's funny how people think North Africa was first inhabited by whites. Check out the founding of Morocco for example:
"Yusuf was Abu Bakar's cousin and so naturally was a black African. DuBois describes him: "Yusuf their leader (the Almoravids), was himself a Negro. The Roudh-el-Kartos,' a Moorish work, describes him as having 'wooly hair' and being brown in color" (76)Yusuf proved to be a wise and capable leader."In the year 1062 Yusuf laid the foundation of the town of Morocco with his own hands, and not long afterwards declared the independence of the northern kingdom of which it was to become the capital."(77) Thus, a black moor appropriately founded the city of Morocco. (Ivan Van Sertima, Golden Age of the Moor, pg 173).
Love Berber from India.
We are Muslim
Plz don't divide

Modern famous berbers include Zinedine Zidane and Karim Benzema
And hamza mendyl his mother is berber
@@samirbedahoudi963Hamza Mendyl isn't Berber, he's a Haratin.
Morocco has a sahara and there is no place named western sahara
Thank you very much - I am German / celtic origin, and always thought the Berbers where partly Wandalen / Vandals, Germanic people. Also I read about Phoenicea.
Berbers are berbers north africans, they are not europeans, not black sub-saharan, not arabs. Berbers are mediterranean people who were inluenced by many mediterranean cultures, like : Phoenician, greek, Roman, Vandals, Visgothic Iberian culture, ect. I'm Berber from Morocco.
Yes! your people is a rare people deserving their own nation that represents you. It is a shame that berbers are not that well known throughout the world.
Berbers are not related to Vandals, we are related to the Egyptians, Western Greeks and Southern Italians, essentially peoples with a high amount of E1b1b haplogroup.
Love amazigh people From Kurdistan
berbers are the real nativ africans
Anthony Hunter exactly
Mokrane Ddaoun "Using anthropology, etymology, and quoted comments from the Egyptians themselves, we have no trouble in tracing the "Tawny Moor" or white Berber to the group known as the Libyan and from the Libyan to Tamahu. Besides the historical accounts of these 'whites', which is demonstrated on the farmed palate of Narmer-Menes(if we are taking into consideration visual evidence), and the statuary of Rehotep and consort Nofret, we have the written testimony of these 'white' Libyans on the Wady-Magharah which contains several memorials to the ancient kings of Egypt. The Wady- Magharah states that in the Sixth Dynasty, "Pepi I. Was the conqueror of the Tamahu...the foreign people who in this time dwelt in the valley of caverns [cavemen]." (Ivan Van Sertima, Golden Age of the Moor, pg 16).
Anthony Hunter I'm not saying that the original Libyans aren't black. What I'm saying is that the tawny moors (which became a thing much later) came from white Libyans
my bad

The Amazigh are our brothers and sisters too. Africa for ALL the Africans, home and abroad. ASHAY! ✊😡
thx!! and acctialy we had a king called Massinissa who said :"africa is for africans"
ⴰⵙⵉⵔⴻⵎ ⵏ ⵟⵍⴻⵍⵉ Wow! That's interesting. Marcus Garvey added the last part of the phrase which says "at home and abroad"! You and I should be good friends! As a pan-africanist myself, I would like to know your thoughts on pan-africanism as well! 👍😊
r s j You call yourself a "pan-Africanist"?
You do realize that Dr. Clarke and Dr. Ben (who were all pan-Africanists) all suggested that Black African people should be wary of regarding the Arab and these Arab Berbers as our allies?
Earthling Crusader what the fuck are y talking about!!!! we are the only people, the only civilisation in the world which did not know slavery. we as berber we call our selves "Amazighs" which means free men !!! but if y're speaking about Arabes this is another story !! they have nothing to do with us neither mentally nor physically !!
ⴰⵙⵉⵔⴻⵎ ⵏ ⵟⵍⴻⵍⵉ Word up my brotha! 👍😆
Great Narrator, very peaceful soothing voice and music. I thoroughly enjoyed the video
beatiful, the berber are the people who understood and apply democracy since long time ago (albert camus). in 2016 the berber language is official in algeria. the most beatiful thing about those people is that they are black, white, or betwenn them they all have the same origins. and they all consider themselves as same : amazigh and they speak the same language; thank you
Le Soigneur Des Agneaux Subsaharan is a location. Black their do have Berber Culture Taureg etc..
I’ve met people over the years who thought Morocco, Algeria, and Egypt are in the Middle East. The problem is people are reading whitewash history. The history of North African didn’t start with the Middle East. My West African Ancestors were mix with Berber. The Berbers are not Middle Eastern. Stop separating North African from the rest of Africa. It’s also sad how the dark skin Berbers are been treated in North Africa.
Berbers aren't black, im berber and im not black, you can check on youtube berbers from Morocco and Algeria testing their DNA
@Antoine Shelby they are not BLACK, they are dark brown, due to receiving sun light for ages, and mixing with sub-saharan for ages, that's why the DNA showed that the south you go, the more presence of sub-saharan DNA is found.
Only an ignorant would claim such thing . Educated people are aware of North African not being white , Arab or European they are African just like any other Africans in the same continent. The majority who claim to be Arab happen to be Muslims who were Arabized and have adopted Islam. But Arabs and Islam have nothing to do with Ancient Egypt or any other North African ancient civilization.
The name Africa is derived from Berber Ifri! The Ifri were a Berber people during the Romain times. The Romans thought that all the other Berbers were Ifris so they used the name to call Nord Africa "Africa".
"NORD"? Lol
Actually Tunisia (Tunis) -today-used to be called Afriqiya Africa and it includes Tunisia Algeria Morroco and some part of lybia the name has changed only after few hundreds years afterthe Islamic Envasion to north africa... the rest is history
And I thought for one second that you were a God too! do you know why a typo is ? Although I speak and write in 5 languages, I am a Kabyle and English is not exactly my first language. Give me a break!
SCIPIO AFRICANUS! the Roman general who burnt Carthage to a crisp.
no sucker it's from a yemenite king afrikuch
The Egyptian fair skinned Berbers descend from survivors of Atlantis/hyperborea
wrong
hispaniola? lmao
shut up
nope, more likely Greco-Romans from the greek colonies established there around 1000 BC according to Herodotus and later from the conquest of Alexander and the Ptolemaic dynasty who ruled Egypt for 275 years, as much as 30 percent of the population of Faiyum was Greek during the Ptolemaic period. The last Pharaoh was a Greek princess, Cleopatra. After that the Romans took control and they recorded that in some cities the populations were mostly greek or mixed greek and native. so sorry.
Karina you are right the Basques too
You forget to mention about Berber Tunisian as well Where they were located a lot in the old history
My new boyfriend in Tunisia is Berber..he is the sweetest cutest guy..always smiling and laughing with dimples..beautiful inside and outside..he asked me for marriage..I said yes!! Xo 😘😘😘😘💝💝🎈🎁

Informative video, thank you...
i just love this video thanks for explain the whole story
by the way u have a cool accent keep it up wish u best of luck
@hafida tamazight Thank you, I appreciate it :)
Well now you have. I'm an amazigh, from the northern-Moroccan tribes, 'ibdarsen'. Born and raised in Europe though but still I speak tmazight. Netsh tsawwaregh tmazight, wayigesayi shay edziyregh immen inoe, tsiwwireghth hemyè hemyè waha. Thewhen geffi. What I'm curious about is, you're an amazigh who was born in Russia?
***** Hahaha that's tight. Shek zi igzenayen, nishan keshek oudsed geffi. Got family from that tribe. You guys are from Midar and further, if you are driving from Driouch. Not that far actually.
you are my niebours you know that. I AM FROM BENI TOUZIN AIT TUOZIN
NO I born in midar aldo really amazigh from rif and I AM WHITE LIKE SNOW AND I AM ORIGINAL AFRICAN
I'm an Algerian, I don't give a fuck if you call me black or white, it's irrelevant to me, just call me Berber.
Very nice presentation..I really like it, I hope you add more videos about habits,traditions of those people...
I've often wondered if Amazigh ended up as Altlantean as it went from ancient Tmazight through ancient Egyptian and into ancient Greek. A high culture with it's own language, writing system, norms and customs, but with no defined point of origin is mysterious. Yet it is found among various Mediterranean cultures from N.A. to Spain, to Israel, and beyond. It seems like a people that were scattered a long time ago, but held onto the majority of their deeply rooted culture. It's a beautiful mystery surrounding a very interesting culture.
Thank You for clarifying it. Your's is an interesting culture.
I think barbars were part of larger African sub-race closely related with the people inhabited North Eastern part of Africa. You may mistook them as Eritrean somalis or Ethiopians . Besides, early historians called somali cost "Land of black barbars" and evidently, Barbara port city still exist as thriving modern city in Northern Somalia 's gulf of Adan.
Disclaimer: Am not out to distort anyone's history.
They were [Somehow] related at one point in time...but then the mixing happened
Berbers are Somalis that came from the city port of Barbara called Berbera by non Somali's. They settled in morocco and married non Somalis and as a result their skin color has changed. There is DNA evidence that backs this up.
+Abz Zay
One fact we should appreciate is that barbars people are of all colours. dark, brown and fairly white. All in all. I found worth full to learn history through sound dialogue and I found your explanation quite quit educative. Thanks Brother.
+Mourad Pasha the Somalis are paternally closely related to other Afro-Asiatic-speaking groups in Northeast Africa.[77][78][79] Besides comprising the majority of the Y-DNA in Somalis, the E1b1b1a (formerly E3b1a) haplogroup also makes up a significant proportion of the paternal DNA of Ethiopians, Sudanese, Egyptians, Berbers, North African Arabs, as well as many Mediterranean populations.[78][80] Sanchez et al. (2005) observed the M78 subclade of E1b1b in about 77% of their Somali male samples.[77] According to Cruciani et al. (2007), the presence of this subhaplogroup in the Horn region may represent the traces of an ancient migration from Egypt/Libya.[79] After haplogroup E1b1b, the second most frequently occurring Y-DNA haplogroup among Somalis is the West Asian haplogroup T (M184).[81] The clade is observed in more than 10% of Somali males generally,[77] with a frequency peak of 82.4% among Somalis in Dire Dawa.[82] Haplogroup T, like haplogroup E1b1b, is also typically found among other populations of Northeast Africa, the Maghreb, the Near East and the Mediterranean.
Mourad Pasha Please explain how we are 100% pure and as you say mixed?
i am berber.Thx for sharing
my parents are both from Mexico and I grew up in the united states. both parents last names are normal Spanish last names but my grandmother (mothers side) her last name is Berber......now after looking this up I can see how far beyond name goes and where I'm from.
if you're white skinned it could be true but if you're brown skin you're native American not a Berber. most Mexicans have Hispanic names from colonization. just like how blacks have white names like johnson or James but no where in Africa is James a African name don't be confused by the white man.
I have some Amazigh from a gggg....grandmother years ago who settled New York. She was from Fes and Atlas mountains. I love the food and music. I was surprised it came out in my DNA! Can't wait to visit Morocco! 😀
Welcome in morocco from a moroccan amazigh ( aka berber ) ❤️🇲🇦❤️🇲🇦❤️
they are from Atlantis, coincidence that the mountain they inhabit is called Atlas
Great documentary..you're very talented..keep going (y)

Why do your people keep saying all berbers are white Europeans? You look brown to me? They hate the Arabs and black Africans judging by the comment section.
Proud amazigh kabyle ❤️ Am very white skinned with blue eyes
It's a shame they have to be categorized as a race they are not. I loved this video. I didn't know much about the Berbers until today. Thank you. They are pure Africans.
Berbers:
These are the light-skinned Africans not related to Arabs by DNA. Arabs went to North Africa in the 7th Century.
The Ottoman Empire in Morocco'/ Algeria in the 11th Century. French Montana ( Musician) and Muammar Qadaffi are both Berber.
The Amazigh are not Arabs ( Saudi Arabia/ Kuwait). They are not by DNA the same as Black Africans ( Kenya/ Nigeria). They are a unique Mediterranean People.
Turkish did go to Morocco' and make many babies. There is Turkish Blood in Morrocco.
People in Morocco seem to be proud of their Arab and Turkish History. North Africans are Amazigh!
Moroccans, Egyptians, Berbers, and other North African's were Hamitic Caucasians not Semitic or Japhetic.
Did my 23nMe DNA.. my ancestors where from Berber ancestry.. great joy I feel.😘
This is great 👍I'm a Berber from algeria

Yes we are Amazigh, But Know that Islam is our faith. God doesnt distinquish ur human origin, Arabs are the ones WHO speak arabic, its not a race this is what the prophet Muhammad Said, now, in truth all muslims Are amazigh, free of monarch rule and the only one WHO should ever determine the fate of our lively hood is God. Again, the berbers is a proud and strong folk, that is why salahuddin placed berber warrirors to guard al-Aqsa m, we are recognized and honored. But dont fool ur self with arrogance as on the day of judgement we shall all be judged equally in the fairness of God.
Who is born in North Africa is an Amazigh (Berber), in fact I am an Amazigh of Arab origin.
Aimen the Moroccan thaiboxer El Habry north africa like egyptian dont consider themself as arabs tho
Ryan lex we are not all Arabs of origins!
Aimen the Moroccan thaiboxer El Habry lmao i didnt even said all of them are arabs origns do you even read bruh?
Ryan lex I read, and I know, most of us aren't Arabs by origins. Calm down man!
Aimen the Moroccan thaiboxer El Habry alright cool man
I am from Tunisia and here , the origins of people are : 60 % amazighs ( Berbers ) , 15 % Arabs , 11 % Turks , 10 % Spanish , 4 % others ( especially French and Italians ) and about the religions Tunisia is the most populated Arabic country by Jews after Palestine ( over 2500 Jewish ~ 0,02 % of the population ) , nearly 100000 Christians ~1 % of the population , 200000 no religious ~2 % of the population , 10870000 Muslims ~96,9 of the population { that was in 2014 }
The thing that is weird is that we don't call ourselves Berbers. As a matter, the name is unknown among us as we call ourselves AMAZIGH.
