@KaeMaiden Hey, these people have Denisovan admixture but that is not what they are. Are Europeans now Neanderthals because they mixed with them? They are Africans who left the continent a long time ago.
Everything is so similar to African tradition: the drums, songs, dances, even the shell money. And their language sounds similar too. It's like when I listen to another Bantu language - it sounds so familiar, but I can't understand what they're saying. I did some research and found many similarities. For example, in the Nasioi language, the word "ana" refers to a child, which is very similar to the Bantu family words like "ana," "bana," "mwana," and "twana." This is also the case with some prepositions, such as "to." They say "ko," and in Bantu languages, "ko" and "ku" (pronounced as "koo") are generally used. My study was only focused on Bantu languages, but I'm certain connections can be found between other African language families, just as there are interconnections among many African cultures (traditions, religion, and language). My theory is that it's only been a long time since we separated, so change is bound to happen until it becomes almost unrecognizable, but there will always be aspects that remain the same.
I'd also like to add that I don't think being related to Africa means they're African. They are not African but definitely related or could as well have come from Africa, like Caribbeans, Brazilians, and possibly any black community with curly hair. They've been there for generations, and that's their newfound identity, but they need to know their roots.

Well according to the book titled "Susu Economics" written by Paul Alfred Barton there was an ancient trade route around 5000 years ago between this region of the world and east Africa, that's how the banana was introduced to Africa.
Yes these are our brothers and sisters. Imagine they say Chinese and Japanese originated from Africa but not these...?! The drums, the nose, the culture ...all of it is African.
What was recently discovered is that Africa is the most generically diverse continent on the earth. A person from the Angola is very different from a person from Chad or Kenya.
Recently discovered by Americans. I'm from Angola, and we already knew that... In Africa we have tribes, my tribe is from Cabinda, we are Ibindas, we speak Fiote, I come from the Tati branch, and we are different from every tribe in Angola. We have cousins in the Congos (Camavinga from Real Madrid is our cousin), but we are all different because of tribalism. 57 countries in Africa equals a lot of different tribes.
@@francebootun9598not a good example I would say people from Switzerland are different then Brit’s and Dutch are different then German for one Australians are mainly welsh and a white person in America can be any sort of mix so not a good example whatsoever
Beautiful people. I learned a brief history of the Bougainville people during dental schools while learning the effects betel nut. This was very informative, thank you for sharing.
Thank you! This is a very interesting video. It demonstrates the concept of convergent evolution. To survive at a latitude with high solar radiation/UV exposure, humans require dark skin. Similarly, curly hair rises above the scalp, which allows air to flow through to cool the body. Straight hair rests on the head and conserves heat.
Actually sub Saharan Africans are the original people of the earth, Haplogroup A is the oldest Y chromosome DNA of humans, which is strictly sub Saharan African. Yemen, aboriginals of Australia & south India aren’t older than any Nilotic people group.
Why is it so difficult for people to understand that unless human remains of Homo Sapiens Sapiens at least 300,000 years or older is found in Bougainville, or anywhere else, people from Bougainville originated in Africa 10’s of thousands of years ago as ALL human life began there. Being genetically diverse doesn’t exclude African origins as Africans are the most genetically diverse humans on the planet. If I’m wrong point me to any genetic or anthropological studies to show humans on those Islands 300,000 years ago or older than humans from Africa.
@JSings11 The “Out of Africa” theory has been disproven. I took biological anthropology 10 years ago and were taught that the true origin of the Homo sapiens is the Fertile Crescent approximately modern day Iran and we spread out from there. So it’s actually into Africa, into Europe, Asia, etc…
Their genetic makeup facinates me, i love learning about cultures and languages, and when i see unique things like this, it makes me love culture even more. Thank you for the informative video.
Rubbish. Tons of Asian cultures do that. That is a transcultural norm not an African norm. In fact it’s more of an Asian culture than African culture. It’s more popular in Asian culture. Education is your best bet!
So, hearing a statement on a 9-minute video has shown you that these people are of African origin? Yet, geneticists are still trying to figure it out. 🤦♂ Maybe you should get with the experts with all that great wisdom.
@martinfiay8908 ok... don't include all of us with you...brother. Peace. There are white people in Europe because they live further from the sun. There are Serbians and Eskimos who have Asiatic features and are pale as snow. There are South Indians and Sri Lanka's who are darker than me. Anyway, science with facts doesn't lie unless it's a lie itself. Just look at the map and connect the dots. The Sentinel Islands in the Indian Ocean are dark people, so as the Native Austrlians. Original inhabitants of Malaysia and Philippines are dark skin too. Most of the oral tales around PNG say we came from the North west or sunset. The possible larger land mass that we came from is Asia. Africans don't have Denisovans DNA like Asians Melanesians and other groups.
They don't look african at all you idiot. They don't look like anyone in Africa. The only thing similar is melanated skin. Thats it. I swear living in euro societies really makes black people retarded. How u look at them and see african? It's retarded I bet you can't tell the difference between a jaguar and leopard
I'm deeply moved that the black race exists in many parts of the world especially in those islands. I'm also informed that many of them were hunted like animals by the colonialists and are robbed of land, exploited and systematically depopulated. Now that they are getting exposed, their rights must be absolutely respected and they need to increase in population.
Your description of the treatment of the people is not factual. The people of Bougainville were always fiercely independent. Successive colonial administrations improved the life of the people - public health, education and opportunity. The dispute over the Panguna mine boiled down to landowner greed, the same problem on every PNG mining development.
@@blackrampage2 aren't white people out of Africa too? If these folks left Africa 12,000 years ago and Europeans left Africa 20-12,000 years ago wouldn't both groups be equally African?
I don't understand why people don't know that black people literally exist everywhere. Dark skin, broad featured, frizzy hair- all of these things are ancient human characteristics. That's why a lot of people have dark skin, curly hair, and broad features like what we associate with Africans. They are black people, not the same as Africans, but they look the way they do for a reason
According to the Southern Dispersal theory, Melanesians have African ancestry. This theory suggests that hominid populations from Africa migrated along the southern edge of Asia eventually reaching the ancient continent of Sahul, which is now Australia and New Guinea. The first migration to Sahul occurred over 40,000 years ago, when the two landmasses were connected by a land bridge due to lower sea levels. From Sahul, Melanesians traveled east through India, Southeast Asia, southern China, and Indonesia, eventually reaching the Pacific islands.
This is stupid ignorant white people's science and makes no sense if you pay attention to aboriginal art. Austaloids were doing far more things that africans. That's from prehistoric days. We can tell from the wall art.
That's a theory. Melanesians are aboriginals not of african descent, that's why in Australia the Australian government pays them compensation for taking their land. Does that happen in south Africa ? No

It seems you don't know Africa at all. Or you intentionally ignore the truth. Africa is so genetically diverse that you will find a group of people not even 300 km away from one another being very different genetically. Even after being neighbors for thousands of years. You can not reduce Africa to one small basket and then proclame that some white people are genetically closer to Africa than the Islanders. Which Africa? The one you reduced to a single small basket in your mind ?
You are right. I think it would have been better said that those Solomon Islanders are closer to Asians than they are to most continental Africans. Some E1B1 Africans are more related to Eurasians than they are to Hadzabe groups who cluster with the B haplogroup.
They belong to the first wave of immigrants out of Africa. The African genome is the most diverse, this indicates that this is the original human genome.
as someone whos Melanesian and is part of bouganville let me tell you that we may look like africans but our culture , traditions and just us in genral are a whole different ethnicity. heritage and community. like how americans and europeans are different. besides ive been to africa and i feel like we're more inclined with the southeast asian countries then africa
Playing drums,wearing sisal nd Animal skin, Ostrich feathers on the head,practicing farming,hunting nd gathering...yeah you're very different from Africans😅😅😅😅😅
It seems some of you people who are black and far African don't know much about African. Go and do your research well about ancient migration from Africa and you will realize that all dark skin people are from Africa. It may surprise you that your language Will have some words from some tribes in Africa

These people look like southern Sudan Africa has about 9 looks in Europe Irish don't look like Greek same in Africa with over 9 major ethnicities where over 2 000 languages and tribes fall in. This makes it easy to see these people as some Africans
These are the ancestors of the Chinese, Philippines and Australian. Driven from the mainland to the islands. They are connected to the nigritos of Philippines
@@firstnationfall5451All humans came out of Africa. We the Pacific Melanesians left Africa wayyyy before the Europeans did, that's why the white man is genetically more related to Africans, while Pacific Melanesians have ZERO genetic links to Africans!
Very informative, thank you. Many years ago a family friend worked in Bougainville & I still remember the stories & photos. For a little white Aussie girl this was so new & different! I found everything fascinating - our world, in spite of ongoing troubles, is a truly beautiful one.
Being watching "Hitchy Boots" lady traveled acrosss west africa on motorbike and realized they have a place called Togo and another called Kenema down there. Surprisingly theres individuals namedly Togo and Kenema in my village in Bougainville. It could be pure luck of coincidence.
Its not because it's coincidence, I tell all those black people in the Pacific and other island across the world if you make a search of their language it will trace back to Africa. Once you a black person you are from Africa.
So...if they have a COLONIZED name wouldn't it be reasonable to believe this information comes from a Colonizing mind? Meaning the idea that they are NOT African is based on SEPERATING Them from their ROOT. This is a RACIST concept and one this channel is promoting. They are of African descent AND are being differentiated like ALL Blacks in the African Diaspora by a lying racist who uses A.I. to give you the information in an African Voice but it isn't accurate information. All Blacks have a direct tie to Africa.
Thank you. Bougainville was already on my bucket list but now has an extra star. I hope to one day visit Papua New Guinea, Bougainville & Solomon Islands in a month long trip. I would love to see a rugby league match there. The very first two unofficial State of Origin matches were played there in September 1945 shortly after WWII had ended and the troops were awaiting transport back home.
Learn about europeans who discovered the world and the beauty of human beings living there. French opened comptoirs to exchange spices for silk or fus. The problem of colonization came later with the companies.

This explains a lot. I’m African American and I got the Melanesian dna. It explains my blue black cousins with very light eyes and and light hair. It’s not blonde. Just light. I don’t know what color it is. They look odd cause you don’t see that too often in America or anywhere really.

You don’t have to be African or have African ancestry to have dark skin. Dark skin evolved as an adaptation to high levels of UV radiation from the sun in regions near the equator, such as Bougainville. Melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, protects against the harmful effects of UV radiation. Therefore, people with darker skin tones are more prevalent in regions with intense sunlight, regardless of specific racial or genetic backgrounds. So, dark skin is primarily a result of adaptation to environmental factors rather than a direct consequence of race or specific genetic heritage.

But will play games and say “We Wuz” and bs like that. People hate the fact that Black people populated the planet before everyone else. These people are Black and have those features not because they developed them THERE, but because brought that with them from Africa, it’s THAT simple.
From what I know about African genetics is that due to Africa being the birth place of civilization and the many different climate changes over the thousands and thousands of years of human existence. These ppls african ancestors probably died out a very long time ago and these ppl were apart of the first waves of ppl that left Africa and went to the pacific. Which is why their ancestry won’t show a genetic African link but the cultural and biological similarities to me prove of the groups being distant cousins so to speak. 😊
It is true trying to label dark skin as purely African is limiting but I think it bears significance in that it points to not losing something associated with the motherland and the it’s main trait that leads to discrimination within our most relevant history…so it invariably creates a bond
Black Americans are African American. Africans are Black! Y’all came late to the party with that one 😂😂😂 it’s a title given to us by the Europeans (had to remind you incase you forgot) As far back at 1898, my family on censors are ‘black’ but in 1898 American black were still labelled ‘knee grow OR coloured.’ The way I see American blacks today fighting tooth and nail for that title is MAAAAD!
@missqt48 Yes and No. Pepi or another NGU in KMT called himself Black. KMT was called the black land. Yes, when they see us, they have called us black. But that is irrelevant. They have a Global group that considers themselves white. So we also have a global group of Black people. We are at war in every part of the planet. You can call yourself what you want they will still see you as black.
@ChiquitaSpeaks of course. But we must realize bkack people are global. This Earth is ours. We have been here for millions of years. We are the first in every land. The albino/ Neanderthal hybrid mutated in the past 20 thousand years. They haven't been here.
I understand and I appreciate your tenaciousness. I am a historian and it is imperative to impart history no matter the contrast. We as humans may not always agree but we can hear each other out as civilized beings or at least try. If our paths never cross be blessed. INSHALLAH

We don't need the paperwork from 23&Me to deny what our eyes see.
@@BRKS627 Because many of their elders still know it, and being the fact that ALL humans came from Africa, which includes THEM, it’s more than obvious that they brought those same features with them to the Pacific/Oceana, that indigenous Africans STILL have to this day.

All of this trying to explain it away is quite suspect.(Anti-Blackness/Anti-Africanness) Even within modern Africa, there’s Black Africans that have totally different genotypes, AND phenotypes. Africa has the highest level of genetic diversity in the world.
@@kingofhearts1072 but you have to acknowledge they have evolved genetically since that too. We are not anti-African when we say they are not African.

What was recently discovered is that Africa is the most generically diverse continent on the earth. A person from the Angola is very different from a person from Chad or Kenya.
Recently discovered by Americans.
I'm from Angola, and we already knew that...
In Africa we have tribes, my tribe is from Cabinda, we are Ibindas, we speak Fiote, I come from the Tati branch, and we are different from every tribe in Angola.
We have cousins in the Congos (Camavinga from Real Madrid is our cousin), but we are all different because of tribalism.
57 countries in Africa equals a lot of different tribes.

Thank you! This is a very interesting video. It demonstrates the concept of convergent evolution. To survive at a latitude with high solar radiation/UV exposure, humans require dark skin.
Similarly, curly hair rises above the scalp, which allows air to flow through to cool the body. Straight hair rests on the head and conserves heat.

Why is it so difficult for people to understand that unless human remains of Homo Sapiens Sapiens at least 300,000 years or older is found in Bougainville, or anywhere else, people from Bougainville originated in Africa 10’s of thousands of years ago as ALL human life began there. Being genetically diverse doesn’t exclude African origins as Africans are the most genetically diverse humans on the planet. If I’m wrong point me to any genetic or anthropological studies to show humans on those Islands 300,000 years ago or older than humans from Africa.
Yes, all Homo-sapiens originated from the lands of Africa. No different from the Australian natives.
Nothing but the FACTS

There are white people in Europe because they live further from the sun. There are Serbians and Eskimos who have Asiatic features and are pale as snow. There are South Indians and Sri Lanka's who are darker than me. Anyway, science with facts doesn't lie unless it's a lie itself. Just look at the map and connect the dots. The Sentinel Islands in the Indian Ocean are dark people, so as the Native Austrlians. Original inhabitants of Malaysia and Philippines are dark skin too. Most of the oral tales around PNG say we came from the North west or sunset. The possible larger land mass that we came from is Asia. Africans don't have Denisovans DNA like Asians Melanesians and other groups.
They don't look african at all you idiot. They don't look like anyone in Africa. The only thing similar is melanated skin. Thats it.

I'm deeply moved that the black race exists in many parts of the world especially in those islands. I'm also informed that many of them were hunted like animals by the colonialists and are robbed of land, exploited and systematically depopulated. Now that they are getting exposed, their rights must be absolutely respected and they need to increase in population.
The black race?
Your description of the treatment of the people is not factual. The people of Bougainville were always fiercely independent. Successive colonial administrations improved the life of the people - public health, education and opportunity. The dispute over the Panguna mine boiled down to landowner greed, the same problem on every PNG mining development.

I don't understand why people don't know that black people literally exist everywhere. Dark skin, broad featured, frizzy hair- all of these things are ancient human characteristics. That's why a lot of people have dark skin, curly hair, and broad features like what we associate with Africans. They are black people, not the same as Africans, but they look the way they do for a reason
According to the Southern Dispersal theory, Melanesians have African ancestry. This theory suggests that hominid populations from Africa migrated along the southern edge of Asia eventually reaching the ancient continent of Sahul, which is now Australia and New Guinea. The first migration to Sahul occurred over 40,000 years ago, when the two landmasses were connected by a land bridge due to lower sea levels. From Sahul, Melanesians traveled east through India, Southeast Asia, southern China, and Indonesia, eventually reaching the Pacific islands.
South Asians Are Africans mixed with Mongols
This is stupid ignorant white people's science and makes no sense if you pay attention to aboriginal art. Austaloids were doing far more things that africans. That's from prehistoric days. We can tell from the wall art.
@@firstnationfall5451 They even sailed acrosz the Indian Ocean.
That's a theory. Melanesians are aboriginals not of african descent, that's why in Australia the Australian government pays them compensation for taking their land. Does that happen in south Africa ? No
Scientists agree that all humans have a single origin. So, somewhere back in time, Africans and Melansians have common ancestors.

There is NO local on this planet name Guinea without African Diaspora in it. As a matter of fact the name Guinea was created to refer to a region of WEST AFRICA. Which DNA test did you take?
Yes, they are black. But, not African black or a close descendant. Just an opinion from a black american. I wonder do they have the fast muscle twitch found in Africans and their descendants.🤔

Really? Where have you been?
You don’t have to be African or have African ancestry to have dark skin. Dark skin evolved as an adaptation to high levels of UV radiation from the sun in regions near the equator, such as Bougainville.
Melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, protects against the harmful effects of UV radiation. Therefore, people with darker skin tones are more prevalent in regions with intense sunlight, regardless of specific racial or genetic backgrounds.
So, dark skin is primarily a result of adaptation to environmental factors rather than a direct consequence of race or specific genetic heritage.

From what I know about African genetics is that due to Africa being the birth place of civilization and the many different climate changes over the thousands and thousands of years of human existence. These ppls african ancestors probably died out a very long time ago and these ppl were apart of the first waves of ppl that left Africa and went to the pacific. Which is why their ancestry won’t show a genetic African link but the cultural and biological similarities to me prove of the groups being distant cousins so to speak. 😊
