Wow! My brother did his DNA, along with our parents. We have middle Easter blood, along with some Jewish, Spanish, Portuguese, and norther African blood. We are from Mexico.
Hispanic means property of Spain right?
You are a Caucasian 💙
You should back to Islam it your ancestors Religion christian forcefully convert them to Christianity 😢
@@lapislazulii141lol stay away from us we are not white we are Iberomaurusians
Happy Easter Egg!
I love the information you are providing and the tonality of it because there is no purity, not because we mixed. Rather we re-mixed for whether you are religious or not, there is one truth. All of us human beings come from one pool.
You are absolutely right.
In Cuba one of the most famous rice is "Moros y Cristianos" which is Black Beans and Rice
Que rico 😂!
The beans are the Moors and the rice is the Christians, in case you haven't guessed.
@@BrianStanleyEsq I know and the pork cracklings with the moors taste delicious 😂😂😂😂
Hey, pepepena 1937, did you know Cuba was Moorish territory???
Christopher Columbus wrote in his journal that when he came to America's
He said that he saw Islamic a Mosque on the hills of Cuba .
What most doesn't know is the Americas was all Moorish territory, North ,Central, and South America was Moorish territory. The Moors were the ones that brought Islam to the Americas ,
The Americas was called [ The AL-MAGHRED ], meaning the farthest West . Just to put you on point !

I want to congratulate you on this video. I am of Spanish ancestry and certainly must have a cocktail of ethnicities. This is due to the fact that not only my ancestors came from various parts of Mother Spain but that the Iberian Peninsula has always been a melting pot a crossroads of different empires, peoples and cultures. This makes my ancestral homeland one of the most interesting, unique and marvelous countries not only in Europe but in the world. I really enjoyed your video. Hope that the future ones are as informative and interesting as this one. Greetings from Puerto Rico.
Jose Meir Estrugo (Scrooge) born in Cuba, who claimed being jewish and freemason, wrote in 'Los sefardíes': 'Spaniards are not and never were racists'
Yes, many peoples arrived to Iberian peninsula, but at different times, and with different ways of acting.
Some are clearly outsiders from Europe, aggresive invaders.
What’s often the glossed over is not all black Africans are sub-Saharan Africans. Remember that the Sahara wasn’t always a desert. There are still relict populations of blacks that live there.
You mean Invaders, not "Avengers" right?
Colón Colony?
The is funny coming from a Puerto Rican seeing as most ppl from the Caribbean are actually of African descent. unless you are a white Puerto Rican the likelihood is, that like most of the island, genetic ancestry is African
Great video. Awesome. My family is from Portugal and Spain
I love how you included the genetic aspects here. Keep up the good work
if you go further back in time there was even more mixing. Carthage was also in all of southern spain. before them were the greeks. after them, the romans. after the romans, the visigoths. so that huge mix resulted in the gorgeous spaniards we see today, pale to olive skin, dark hair, and often light eyed. strikingly beautiful. most gorgeous in europe i think.
Caucasians
@nigelmcgiver2275💯
Caucasian.... like from the Caucasus mountains?
@@lapislazulii141Southern Europeans like the Italians Greeks
Most beautiful? Isn't that title for the blonde blue eyed tall stature Aryan looking Scandinavians?
I love history, thank you so much for all the very interesting information. ❤️
what this guy know about Iberian history ? watching youtube blogs ?
Good job, Ali. I am currently researching 16th century Spain. I learned a thing or two from your video. I subscribed and am looking forward to your next one.
Thank you! Very informative and scientific!
In Spanish you would spell the name of the city Córdoba, where the ó with the accent mark tells you it's the emphasized vowel. So you would pronounce it "CORdoba" with the emphasis on the first o
The AI programme I use doesn’t do a good job with Spanish.
@@AncestralBrew It's very jarring to hear Córdoba mispronounced over and over.
What if he is saying it in English?
@@roiq5263 why in english would it be Cordóba changing the accent?
@@FannyPlusvi why not?

Excelente documental!

I 'M from Morocco and recently I did a test DNA .The result was 75,7% north African and 18,5 Iberian
Actually you're results are bogus... The people in that region today are descendants of Greek and Roman invaders.

Well no trace of moors dna in andulucia
According to university of granada .the rest is a story
@@maalfons University of Granada, department of history? Let's find out
Great video! I visited Spain and Morocco in 1976, when I was a kid. I''ve always wanted to go back, but never had the opportunity. I remember well the Alhambra and the cathedral that was once a mosque.
Lol modern day morooco is like a mulatto mix race nation
Great video.
Great video ! Thanks !!!
Amazing Video ❤
There's a great book about the war of the Alpujarras, (granada) which besides the battles also shows the common person's experience of the turmoil at the time. It's called "El Ultimo Morisco" by Diego Ramos. It's available in spanish right now (I listened to it on audio) but I heard the author is almost done with the english translation!
congratulations for this video man, absolutely brilliant
That was very interesting. Thanks.
I enjoyed this documentary. Please more
I am Paraguayan of Spanish ancestry, the product of endogamy among the descendants of the first conquistadors of the Rio de la Plata. These were 16th century Spaniards, from the time the Moors were still in Spain. However, I have no North African or Middle Eastern ancestry: not on paper and not on DNA results.
Ese cruce genético se encuentra principalmente en Marruecos, si miras por TH-cam resultados de ADN de españoles verás que lo que más abunda son sardo(Cerdeña), Italia e Irlanda, muy poco norteafricano excepto en Canarias que tiene un origen bereber. Si miras resultados de marroquíes verás que 8-9 de cada 10 tiene algún porcentaje ibérico. Esto tiene su explicación histórica con la expulsión de los musulmanes, tenía que ver con la religión no con la genética.
Añado que para viajar a América necesitabas una licencia de viaje para la que pedían varios requisitos, ser cristiano viejo (no ser converso de musulmán o judío, ni hijo de converso) era uno de ellos.
@@franrec6051yo soy español al igual que todos mis antepasados y en mis pruebas de ADN no aparece absolutamente nada de norte de África, aparece en un 80% celtíberos R1b y el resto del este de Europa 9% 7% del noroeste de Europa y un 4% de Italia del norte. Soy del centro peninsular. Es lo normal. Si consultas el ADN a nivel europeo, en España sale un alto porcentaje de ADN R1b, atlántico europeo y muy muy poco del norte de África y por supuesto a la mayoría de españoles no nos aparece nada. Curiosamente tienen un porcentaje más alto de ADN norteafricano los portugueses, gallegos, italianos y griegos.
@@egutiguti3337 Este video es una burrada absurda llena de generalizaciones estúpidas. Yo no tengo ni un 1% de genética mora y sin embargo tengo un 60% de genética judía y el resto ibérico. Soy de Valencia.
@@Davidsolo78 sí, no se que pasa últimamente que nos quieren hacer moros a la fuerza, será por lo de la sustitución de la población, para que nos vayamos mentalizando, pero ahora es que para cierta gente todo viene de los moros, cuando la mayoría de la gastronomía viene de los romanos, la conservación de la carne de cerdo de nuestros jamones, el gazpacho, la paella, las torrijas y hasta muchos otros postres que por el hecho de contener miel ya tiene que ser de los moros, cuando los romanos y en el conjunto del mediterráneo conocían la miel desde el principio de los tiempos. Es preocupante esta corriente que nos están tratando de imponer con calzador, porque luego en todos los estudios europeos de ADN resulta que España, junto con Irlanda, Gales y Escocia son unos de las zonas donde más se concentra el ADN R1b. Y el ADN norteafricano, el E1b1 es menor incluso que en Italia o Grecia.
Great video
Great video man very accurate.
Thank you for this video. I am an American and I’m learning about my mother’s family’s history in Malaga, Spain and this makes a lot of sense to me. My son looks very much like you and whenever he meets people from North Africa, they always ask him where his family is from originally.
Soooo glad to have you back. Let’s do all we can to make it possible for you to continue producing these excellent and educationally valuable videos.
Now, I have a request for you: Kindly present us with a thorough DNA review of that smaller, and therefore relatively neglected Iberian country - PORTUGAL. Why, you may ask.
Well, Portugal was a huge colonizing power during the age of colonization.
GOA, situated on the West coast of the Indian Subcontinent, was the capital of Portugal do Orient. Like their Roman ancestors, the Portuguese tended to intermarry with those whom they colonized. How profoundly valuable it would be to learn about the genetic makeup of the Portuguese, apart from what History tells us.
And then perhaps, someday, having learned about the Portuguese two-staged colonization of Goa, the Portuguese Inquisition in Goa, and the intricacies of Goa’s Caste System, you will be inspired to venture out to study and do a similar video of Goan people, who are increasingly being outnumbered, in Goa, by Non-Goan Indians.
Welcome back to your enormous Fan base!
I work with a nurse from Goa and both of her names are Portuguese and she has Portuguese nationality. Her parents are Indian and she doesn’t speak the language though. Very intelligent girl.
@@bio.Luminescence I’m assuming, bio.Luminescence, that you and I are kindred fans of the enterprising author of this video? Ancestralbrew is his handle…
Yes, all my names are Portuguese, an imposed conversion legacy of the Goan Inquisition (1560-1812). And I’m fluent in Goa’s languages; Konkani and Portuguese.
Now, bio.Luminescence falls short of revealing much more about your background, than the fact that you’re creative at choosing a clever TH-cam name 🤔…

Is it normal in English to pronounce _Córdoba_ with stress on the ‑do‑ syllable: /cor-DO-ba/?
In Spanish, the stress goes on the first syllable Cór‑ as the written accent indicates: /CÓR-do-ba/.
I'm English. I've always pronounced it COR-do-ba.

Good onya mate great video I really enjoyed it👍
Brilliant docu mate...
Spain is very diverse, all people came and conquered. I was born in Barcelona and
they called my( avi ) pop the Viking, he was tall, blue eyed and very fair, his 3 daughters
too, my mum was the youngest, the 4 grand kids, we are the same, and 2 of my
adult children too... so, who knows where people come from, we are all mixed.
Spain is European, and should have never been ME or African!!, nor should it still.
Lol us too, Cuban, I am fair skinned and have green eyes, my sister looks middle eastern brown eyes and darker skinned.
Your talking blonde hair and blue eyes but the topic is about the black Moors
@@cush5147 True, just making a point, I went off the topic, thanks.
Spain never existed, it was a branding iron from the bloody roman empire.
Before the roman invasion, there were some local kingdoms in Iberian peninsula, a name coming from other newcomers, travelling from Transcaucasian Iberia, but most were 'city-states', Baskes never gave themselves any political organization beyond hamlets.
You know in 'Pyrenees orientales' there is river called 'Muga', 'border' in Baske, same as 'Jalón' river meant border between Baskes and CeltIberians.
You may have goth ancestry, as around 4th century, Geroncio, a roman general involved in a fight for empire, opened way to alans, swabians and vandals, which prowled Gallia.
Result was chaos, a church writer recorded: 'Wild beasts, fattened on corpses of those who starved, started attacking the living'
Visigoths (from kingdom with capital in Toulouse; the Ostrogoths, same people, had capital in Ravenna), were attacked by the francs, with the excuse of being Aryans in religion, while francs were catholic.
Goths, their king Alaric defeated the Western roman empire, had no other place to go than the Iberian peninsula, 400'000 Goths arrived, having started the journey long, long ago in Gottland island, Burgundians came from Bornholm island, the Iberian Peninsula had then 4 million inhabitants.
With the roman power faded, Goths started ruling with their own laws and authorities, and made themselves pay with land, 'the Goth third', but always collected less taxes than romans.
That's all, folks!
I don't understand how black people can claim moor's history when the moor's family names, history, architecture and musical styles are still present amongst Northern African only...
Black folk are choosing to accept the erroneous depictions by non-Iberian European painters coupled with wishful thinking and lazy fallacious scholarship plus inferiority complex of their real history
DNA should clarify it, but the DNA Companies have some inappropriate Labels:
Like using 1 City Group and Religion for all: Jews.
Using Iberian for Basque and Spanish.
That's like using Irish for Catholics.
Why mix Religion with DNA Origin?
It's like they want the Public to be ignorant, misguided.
I really don't understand why their label system is acceptable, by Academics 8r Scientists.
Why can't Africans and Blacks of America claim it? These are our ancestors...I'm Ghanaian with a huge Moorish/Berber back ground.
"family names, history, architecture and musical styles are so present amongst Northern Africa only".
Which part of North Africa are you from? Your comment is confusing...you seem to be lacking context in your comment. Explain your comment.
Ghana has nothing to do with moors or Berbers, moors is a simple term to describe Muslims during their conquest in Spain. There are some black but most of them are white you can see this in the art and literature.@@benkubenku1
Because sense and education is not their strong suit, and they're free to be as racist as they want to be, given the double standard.

Thank you Ali 🌷
sooo cool and so glad i found
Moors = Morrocan and from Morocco entered the Muslims that why for all the Spanish it were The Moors, the first step of conquest from the Land of Moor which was in the past (before the coming of Islam) a kingdom called "Mauritania Tenjitana" with capital Tanger, which is today the Current Moorocco.
The architecture of those in Andalous still exists only in Morocco and only Moroccans who can make it the same and better than those of the past ( you are in morocco take a look to it).
Moor and Morocco don't share any etymology, moor comes from Mauri which while initially refferring to just the people of Mauretania, by the end of Roman times had come to mean all Berbers. So Moor = North African.
Edit: I wrote Mauretania with an e to clarify I mean the ancient kingdom, now hopefully Moroccans can stop crying over a claim I never even made.
Nope mauri means ppl from Mauritania which was in the north of Morocco other north africans were called by different names like Numidians (from Algeria) and Africans (from Tunisia)@@Threezi04
@Threezi04 Nop, Mauritania was only North Morocco, and at a certain moment, "extended to current Algeria," but the mean Moors are the Moroccans.
@@Threezi04 The Kingdom of Mauritania BC is a Moroccan kingdom😂😂😂
@@med8895 I never said it wasn't????
Some inhabitants were indistinguishable from current Spaniards because a large part were Hispanic converts to Islam, not because they necessarily had North African blood. It is more than proven that in Spain there was hardly any genetic trace left, only in specific areas and the percentage is minimal. That is really what is surprising and that we have not lost our cultural identity, the one left by Rome makes sense because of everything that happened during and after (expulsions, etc.), he need and constant effort to highlight something like this begins to seem quite strange, obsessive not to say absurd, which also only serves to create confusion in historical issues, especially taking into account that Spain was not the only place in Europe occupied by Muslims.. By the way, those words stuck 800 can be found in English, French, Italian... that is because the Arabs were dedicated to commerce and those words were acquired in common use by the population
Even if there was no Califat for 800 years in Spain, Spanish and North Africans would be still related Genetically, because Iberians, most probably came from North Africa in the first place. Without even going that far in history, Romans had Numidians in their Ranks (North Africans) they even had a few Emperors from North Africa, Septimus Severus is the most famous. The General who conquered Iberia for the Romans is a Berber prince (Jugurtha). All this to say that the interactions were older than Islam itself, and that populations intermixed since thousands of years. Now, coming back to the Califat, claiming that berbers were present 800 years in Spain without any mixing with local populations, is not very reasonable. Furthermore, there were tribes that converted to Christianty and fought alongside the Spaniards. So for sure most southern Spanish today have some North African DNA.
Yeah Arabs and North Africans made less than 8% of the Population at it's highest (arabs were a tiny elite or 1-2%, and Berbers about 6%). Their genetic legacy is minimal. Visigoths were 10% of the population with Germans like Vandals etc adding like another 5%. Most spaniards today are descendants of pre-indoeuropeans, Celts and Iberians with little pieces of Viking, Germanic tribes, Phoenicians, Greeks etc...
@@Anzar2011 Iberians most likely didnt come from North Africa. Genetic footprint disproofs this. They were a local culture arosing from Neolithic, Hunter gatherer and Yamnaya people that arrived 3000 bc. Most spaniards descend from Iberians and Celts, yet less than 10% of the population has clear North African ancestry. It makes sense since north Africans and arabs never made more than 8% of the population and most of the population was made of Islamic converts. Islam is a religion not a race, so there was no need for mass migration. Most north African and arabic migration to Iberia before the conquest of 711 is anecdotical. Mostly coming at most from Pheonicians. The Berbers werent present 800 years. Only granada was that long under islamic LOCAL IBERIAN ISLAMIC rule, not berber per se. Most of the Penninsula was under christian hands by the year 1100. So at best 300 years.
Well the bereber dna is all around Spain, the words in Spanish coming from Arabic are thousands, and one of the reasons the Roman and Greek culture are alive is cause authors were translated in Cordoba and Toledo after their knowledge was burnt and vanished all accross Christianity.
@@Alejojojo6 Genetic footprint prouves this, from Eupedia: "A first Mediterranean route brought farmers of the Cardium Pottery culture from the Balkans and Italy. Soon afterwards, La Almagra Pottery culture developed in Andalusia, apparently emerging from the present-day Maghreb. This event would explain the presence of both Northwest African and Red Sea DNA, such as Y-haplogroup E-M81, J1 and T, across most of southern and western Iberia."
I enyoyed watching this video and this Dude; he's good at making all this feels interesting
Thanks bro
I'm keeping an eye (or two, lol) on these episodes until the time come I can go interview you/your team for one vlogging project of mine @@AncestralBrew
Great info 👍
I'm Brazilian with no connection with Moors since I have Japanese background, but what is interesting is that many words in Portuguese we speak in Brazil has Arabic roots, very similar to Spanish, which shows a great influence of that culture, linguistically speaking, in the Iberic peninsula. Also, I always wondered why the typical dish here is rice and beans, especially rice. I suppose it has the Moor influence as well.
Spain will have several countries cuisine as it's a tourist destination
Portugese were in Japan at the same time they were in West Africa. I think there are some words from Portugese that have been incorporated into both Japanese and local African Languages. Ghanaians call hot pepper "shitor". I think Japanese have something similar.
Shishito pepper (獅子唐辛子, Shishitōgarashi) is a sometimes hot East Asian pepper variety of the species Capsicum annuum.[1]
Characteristics
The pepper is small and finger-long, slender, and thin-walled. Although it turns from green to red upon ripening, it is usually harvested while green. The name refers to the fact that the tip of the chili pepper (唐辛子, tōgarashi) looks like the lion (獅子, shishi) head; in Japanese, it is often abbreviated as shishitō.[2]
Most of the words of "Arab origin" came to the arab language from Latin. Like hasta, coming from Ad ista not Hatta (which is the Arabic equivalent).
I fell in love with a north African ancestral Portuguese girl when i was traveling in Évora Monte, Portugal in my early 20's so many years ago, and she was so wonderful and fantastic! I serenaded her from her bedroom window that night we kissed under the ancient roman pillars over looking the region from the peak of town, and enjoyed coffee in the medina on that night of magic together-whispering words of fascination and admiration for one another. But my ignorance and nativity won and I left on my continued travels only to one day realize what I lost and suited the failure in love to come, but I will never forget her! Bless her soul and may she be happy and content today with her life as it followed!!!
Yeah, real nice girl. After all, we all had her.
So good 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Very good job ❤️
there is a small mistake on the translation of "Limpieza de Sangre" on 3:19 - in english, it would be ""cleanliness of blood"" - but yeah, it has the meaning of what it sounds
English teacher here. Cleanliness of blood is a direct translation, purity of blood translates the meaning in this context. The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear cleanliness of blood is blood donations for medical use and blood transfusions. Donated blood has to be screened for pathogens and contaminated blood is discarded. You could say that blood that passes the screening is clean.
Purity can indicate that the thing described is all of one kind without additives. Pure vanilla extract contains no synthetic vanilla and 100% pure Italian olive oil contains no olive oil sourced from another country like Spain or Greece, it is purely Italian. Many Americans are aware of past problems our country has had with the idea of racial purity and prejudice against mixed-race relationships. The terminology often used in these arguments is purity vs. dilution or 100% one race or nationality vs. a 40%/40%/20% split where there isn't a majority.

@@CT-uv8os I stand with you
The moors are Arabs like moor Syria , the origin is from yamen all Arabs tribes living in moor river
Córdoba es una ciudad romana. Lo que hicieron los omeyas de Damasco (no los moros) fue destrozar otra ciudad romana, Mérida, para construir la mezquita con sus mármoles y sillares sobre la catedral cordobesa. Y lo hicieron copiando la arquitectura del imperio romano de oriente y del persa, cristianos antes de su invasión -lo mismo que el norte de África-. Los árabes no tenían arquitectura salvo adobe y tiendas de pieles en el desierto. Y esa arquitectura y los iberos convertidos al islam hicieron la cultura andalusí, única en el mundo y exportada al mundo árabe musulmán que rodea el Mediterráneo, no al revés.
Good job 👍 thank you
I love your Chanel
My family and I visited the Cathedral, formerly the Mosque of Cordoba and were amazed at the architecture and history. We loved the experience. Preserved within the structure you will see pillars and portions of the Visigothic Church that was there before the Mosque. To think Spain was part of the Roman Empire before the Visigothic and Moorish invasions is incredible. Parts of Southern Spain (Andalusia) were colonized by the Phoenicians and the Greeks. Bottom line is, every country has been invaded and left their mark. The Spanish people retook their Country from an invading force. While some Muslim Caliphates were tolerant of other faiths, in the 12th and 13th centuries a new more fundamentalist sect took over. The Christians faced with this fundamentalist had to make a choice and they chose to fight. I’m glad they did and I’m glad they preserved Christianity in the Iberian peninsula.
"Reconquista"
The tolerance of Muslim Al-Andalus is a myth built by XIXth-century Romanticism.
North Africa was part of the Roman and Byzantine Empires as well, with some places being part of the ottomans , the Mediterranean sea really saw the most incredible instances of human civilization. the moors is a vague term that encompasses different dynasties
There was no "spanish" country in the Peninsula. The Visigoths were also invaders. The Christians were as fundamentalsts as the Almohads. You're glad about Christianity only because Spain conquered your country. If your were conquered by the Islamic people, you would be glad if they have won this war, and you should be praying to Meca.

Although what said is true, North African DNA in Iberia is there in the same amount as today (or even more) since the Roman times, like you can see in the monte da nora samples of Portugal.
This is true

You seem to forget or misunderstand the key role of Algeria (historically called Central Maghreb) in the Andalusian history and culture in Iberia.
Algeria was the starting point of the Andalusian epic and today it is still the main receptacle of Arab-Berber-Andalusian culture ( the legacy of the Moors) because it welcomed the largest flows of Andalusian Moorish refugees.
It was in Tlemcen that Tariǫ Ibn Ziad, an Algerian Berber, began negotiations with Count Julien, governor of Ceuta to prepare for the Muslim conquest of the Iberian Peninsula.
A large number of the troops engaged to prepare for the conquest of Hispania came from the Central Maghreb (Algeria)
The “Algerian” coast was the destination chosen by Moorish refugees fleeing the Reconquista after 1492, notably because the “Moroccan” coast could not accommodate them. The main ports on the Moroccan coast were attacked by Spain and Portugal.
Tlemcen, like many other cities in Algeria (Constantine, Annaba, Bougie, Oran, Miliana, Médéa, Collo, Dellys, Algiers, Koléa, Blida…) shares a large part of the memory of medieval Arab-Berber-Andalusian civilization. The toponymy refers to the Andalusian past. Families of Andalusian descent are much more numerous than you seem to believe. Just for Algiers, historians estimate that in the 17th century, out of 100.000 inhabitants, 25.000 were Andalusian.
In Algeria, the repertoire of Andalusian music is rich and varied. It is the only country in the Maghreb which has three schools (three styles) of Andalusian music. Wearable, culinary, musical art, to name but a few, are a heritage of Arab-Berber-Andalusian civilization...
Finally, it is really no coincidence that the last king of Granada took refuge in Tlemcen with his family and found his final home there. (th-cam.com/video/XvgFebAArdI/w-d-xo.html)

You have to admit that Muslim Architecture is great. They were centuries ahead of the barbarian Goths that lived in houses with dirt floors.
One more thing about this period of time:
The Jews in Spain that didn't convert had to leave all their property and valuables when they left Spain. Two things came of this: One) Columbus had a hard time finding ships because most were being used by Jews leaving Spain. Two) the "family jewels" Queen Isabella sold to pay for Columbus' trip were actually Jewish jewels that had been taken from Jews escaping from Spain. So, Columbus' trip to the New World was actually financed by the Jews.
Is easy to be centuries ahead living literary centuries later.
mucho cuento pseudohistórico recitas...
@@joseanfigueroa8785Sounds like you had a very limited history education In Spain. Get out of Spain (or out of the very "cleaned up" history classes in other Spanish influenced schools Like Mexico, Puerto Rico, etc) about the Spanish Inquisition. The REAL Spanish Inquisition was a horror show for Jews. And you would know that if you hadn't been fed a Spanish Processed Education that "cleaned up" the truth. The Spanish Inquisition was about as bad as Nazi Germany was for the Jews...just ask the Jews. OR, you can remain ignorant and don't ask anyone.
Si fuera cierto que hay más gallegos que tienen más ADN bereber (la diferencia sería pírrica, si es que la hay que no tengo claro que sea cierto), sería por su cercania geográfica con Portugal (no se expulsó tanto por allá) o quizás por los flujos migratorios de los conversos, pero culturalmente Galicia no tiene absolutamente nada que ver con los musulmanes y predomina la simbología celta y cristiana. Por otro lado tener uno u otro ancestro suelto o tener algo de ADN de fuera no habrá afectado lo más mínimo al fenotipo. Incluso la mayor parte de canarios, que sí tienen gran aporte guanche, no son físicamente tan diferentes de los peninsulares. Finalmente, Andalucía al margen de ADNs tiene un rico y precioso legado arquitéctonico/cultural de Al-Andalus, que es un orgullo para todos. Saludos!
Ni que los norteafricanos se asemejen a los chinos, cuando un marroquí y una española se casan o viceversa el resultado en la mayoría de los casos son hijos tirando a tez clara y fenotipo mediterráneo, a diferencia de otros matrimonios mixtos cómo con los sudamericanos dónde si se puede ver el mestizaje.
Si es cierto, y se debe a las deportaciones de musulmanes, tras las sublevaciones de las Alpujarras, en Granada, a finales del siglo XXVII.
Granada se repobló con gallegos.
@@jhonwainne2298
No solo en en Granada. En Andalucía entera desde Fernando III cada vez que se reconquistaba una ciudad se hacían Cartas de Repoblación en las que se daban derechos a los nuevos ciudadanos que remplazaban a la población local musulmana.
La verdad que he estado en Galicia muchas veces y conozco muchos gallegos, y me extraña el dato del ADN. Yo diría que en Madrid por ejemplo te encuentras muchas personas más que se nota la herencia del norte de África
Una curiosidad: el DNA mitocondrial U6, típico del Magreb, es común en Galicia/norte de Portugal.
Please do Portugal next!
Very cool!
Iben Sina and Ben Maimon met in Cordoba for establishing the very first medical centers 🎉
I came across one record saying the ancestors of the present Bedoin of the western North African coast were the multiglot Cartheginian Phoenicians. After Rome destroyed Carthage, some of those Carthaginian peoples/tribes melted away into the background of that general area. Note that North Africa was green fertile prairie at that time according to the Roman historians Pliny the Elder and Tacitus. Egypt, the Sinai, "Palestine", Lebanon, and the Fertile Crescent were lush green fertile for millennia up until 600 years ago when the area started turning into desert. Yes caused by serious abrupt climate change mid 14th century.
Climate change not caused by the demon CO2.

@@Davidsolo78 eh eh eh. forse, ma buono ciò nonostante.
A great post, Ali! Boy, you’re brave. In one post, you managed to burst the bubbles of most Arabs, the Amazigh nationalists, the Afrocentric crowd, and the Spanish themselves. DNA doesn’t lie and whilst the culture was Islamic and Arabic, the population was by and large Iberian.
How does it burst the bubble of "Amazigh nationalists"? We know very well that the population was mixed, with most of it being ethnic Iberian in origin. And as mentioned in the video, there was a sizable migration from North Africa to Iberia, before and after their conversion to Islam, which is proven by relatively high NA ancestry percentage. I've never seen an Amazigh nationalist claim that all of Islamic Iberia was of North African ancestry.
It certainly bursts the bubble of Arab nationalists though. I find it ridiculous how some Syrians or Egyptians or Gulf people who wrote about the topic or did vlogs in Iberia, talk about "our Arab civilization in Al Andalus" (Egyptians themselves are mostly not Arabs by ancestry, but that's a whole other topic), and even translations of history works about Islamic Iberia into Arabic often replace the word "Moor" with "Arab". The only people outside of Iberia who can lay partial claim on it are descendants of the Moriscos, especially in Morocco where most of them settled after 1492.

Its worthwhile mentioning that during the inquisition, the contingents of "spanish" that migrated to the so-called new world were in fact way over represented in Jewish and Muslim converts (over 25%). Mexico, Colombia, Cuba, Puerto Rico were countries populated in large part by people who fled persecution in Spain. It explains why so many latinos are often indistinguishable from middle easterners in appearance.
Vos sources pour les 25% vienne de Anglais, si cet le cas ça m'étonne pas 😂.
@@jojolafrite9265 25% is in fact just for jews.... Not sure the number for muslims it hasn't been that well documented. When Hernan Cortez arrived in Mexico, his team was overrepresented in moors and jewish converts.

Be careful of thr Afrocentrists who may come to this channel and try to say Moors were Sub Saharan Africans
Iam Spanish in Spain the word Moor is a Muslim person ( all races) and principally Magheby person in etnicity never black is a great error ( masive principally for Anglosaxons and specially blacks for "fake in this case pride of race) think the Moors are all blacks and passing millions to a Spain is a Big nonsense the DNA of muslim era un Spain is a máximum 3% and White skin etnicity ( Syrian zone) in some parts of Andalusia the rest of Spain nothing
There were moors that traveled from Western Sahara Africa. Basic Google research will tell you this. With that being said, sadly you have people that will intentionally bypass the facts because it would ruin their false sense of the superiority complex they have.

Be as it may that Iberian Catholics tried to 'purge' , as you yourself mention, Moorish and Middle Eastern influence, in architecture, cuisine, borrowed words, music as well as genetics, have stood the test of time and are well represented especially in the southern parts of the peninsula.
How did the Iberian Catholics try to "purge" your moorish bastard DNA?
10% doesn't necessary mean Moorish, the genetic input from the Roman Empire, Hannibal Army, Greeks, Phoenicians were already there before the Moor's arrived.
You are a Big inept and no known history the Muslim.invasion no is a American model on a millions and millions go to.a country is a military invasión not quantitative is a ridicule apart Spain expelled the Moorish (99% non White race and original non Hispanic peolpe) population in 17 century

Cuban American here. Interesting to hear re higher African roots in Canary Islanders. My fathers family have roots there and my sister showed a significantly high percentage of African dna. You also did not mention the deep Arabic roots of our surnames as well.
North Africans and moors are not sub Saharan and never have been. The North African input has been in Spain since ancient times up to 10% of Spanish dna can be North African depending what region.

I made a similar video a few years ago. It is important to note that North Africans are Amazigh and they speak Tamazight in Addition to Derija( a lingua Franka with loan words from Tamazigh, Arabic, French, and Spanish).
There is no Arab majority, there are no Arabs. Those are just Arabized AmaIgh. You really think Arabs came and became more than the native population? Lol. What happened they killed the Amazigh? Just because North Africans who don’t speak Tamazight anymore it doesn’t mean they are arabs. It just means they have become Arabized. You think Derija is Arabic? Of course you do because if you spoke Tamazight you would understand many things about Derija( I can’t argue with someone who doesn’t have a clue about anthropology, linguistics and DNA analysis) the video clearly speaks of northh African DNA, North African DNA is not Middle Eastern DNA. Arabs were a minority and they were defeated and driven out of Morocco, the few that remained melted in the Amazigh Majority. When you do a DNA then come talk..,there are so many people like you who speak out of their emotions. If you think you are Arab which is a lie you have been told then go to the Arabian peninsula.
Well a presumed arabic dialect that no arab understands😅
@@livai1915 People call it Arabic because it obviously has Arabic words, but the structure follows the Amazigh language structure,(of course Moroccans who don't speak Tamazight, will never understand why Arabs don't understand Moroccans when they speak) This is in addition to about 15% of Amazigh words, possibly around 15% of French words and about 10% of Spanish words) An Arab would understand all the Arabic words but would not understand the meaning because it doesn't follow an Arabic sentence structure.....it is pretty much like Maltese but yet Maltese is never described as Arabic...double standards for Pan-Arab nationalists)
@jamalbenhamou yes you are right about the moors is the Moroccan old name
So the Greeks themselves called Moors people of color, but today we going to say they were Arabs? 100 years from now they going to change MLK to a European as well.

My Great, Great, Great grand parents came from San Sebastián North Spain where we weren’t mixed with moors! Although when my great grandparents came to Ecuador that was called La Grand Colombia their kids mixed with the Native American people that live in Ecuador making us Mestizó Half white half Native American.

You native indians are more than likely from these native European tribes that came across the barents sea ice bridge in one of the ice ages...especially the Canadian natives ones even more so?? , so its not much of a stretch of the imagination that these people carried on south into middle America making indian tribes there, then still going even further to make what we know now as incas, and the Mayans....

If you look at contemporaneous depictions of Moors, most show relatively fair olive skin with some darker individuals - pretty much what you'd find in North Africa today. It wasn't until the Renaissance that you really see "Moors" depicted as sub Saharan Africans, probably because by that time slavery and increased trade were bringing more sub Saharan Africans to Europe, and they got lumped in with the Moors.
So cool, I’m Mexican but my great grandparents from both my mom and dad’s side were Spanish. I would love to do a dna test
I believe the Moors were descendants of the Carthagians who were descendants of the Phoenicians who apparently were themselves descendants of the Caananites who themselves were descended from Minoans and or Ammorites. I believe they intermarried with local populations along the way which would make their ancestry appear very diverse from essentially all over the Mediterranean and the Middle East.
You have gone too far. The Moors are a name given to the inhabitants of the Moroccan Kingdom of Mauretania BC

This is a great video. One thing we have to understand, though, is that the “Moors” were a heterogeneous group who interact with Europe for several hundred years. They also interacted with parts of Europe besides Spain. SOME of these Moors were indeed Sub-Saharan African.

Visigothic church
According to traditional accounts, the present-day site of the Cathedral-Mosque of Córdoba was originally a Visigothic Christian church dedicated to Saint Vincent of Saragossa,[30] which was divided and shared by Christians and Muslims after the Umayyad conquest of Hispania.[31][32][18][10] As the Muslim community grew and this existing space became too small for prayer, the basilica was expanded little by little through piecemeal additions to the building.[11]: 136 This sharing arrangement of the site lasted until 785, when the Christian half was purchased by Abd al-Rahman I, who then proceeded to demolish[9][11] the church structure and build the grand mosque of Córdoba on its site.[32][33] (Wiki)
Spain was actually invaded by the Moors to please their new masters the umyyads. The umyyad governor of North Africa crossed over 10 years after the invasion to pick up and enjoy the spoil.
Thank you for speaking more history than In this 8 min of simplicity.
Iberia/Spain has deep influences from
Many different peoples and cultures ie phonecian, Greek, Roman, Visigoth, Celtic and Sephardic. The Muslims arrived late to the show and absolutely did not occupy through peace. Ole la reconquista. Thank God Christianity reigns in Spain to this day and gone are the Muslim hoards.
I know that the Muslims covered the Visigoths portraits with curtains in the church.
You can still see hands that weren’t covered.
I was taught in Art History that the short pillars in the Mosque of Cordoba were re-used Visigothic columns. This may be the reason for the huge arches. Beautiful site!
