I'm not sure how this shakes up anything. Scholarly sources and archaeological sources were in agreement that Phoenicians weren't African in origin already, all DNA evidence does is confirm the existing consensus among actual historians. Afrocentrists on twitter are not serious people.

It's the portuguese whose dna is similar to the brown carthaginian man.how the fuck can you claim that a genealogically older group descended from a genealogically newer one? this makes no sense.
>>18295015mm. is this the process - find one of something, extrapolate to millions? interesting
This is retarded. There's nothing rare or novel about EEF in North Africa. R1b-V88, originally from Balkan foragers was mediated into North Africa by EEF and spread from there to Chad. Granted, that was about 4500 years before this guy lived but that's neither here nor there for an equally old mtdna lineage.
