Based on your Guinean heritage , this DNA test is spot on actually. The Fulas from Senegal, Guinea, Gambia, Mali etc are basically the same people moving around. Some will live in one country but the bulk of their relatives and cousins will be in another country. Colonialism divided these regions but the DNA is still much less the same.
@@zuricon1925 The oldest fulani is found in Fouta Toro Hamady Walaldé. Yes Fulas in senegal, gambia, mali, ghana, nigeria, etc are mixed; however, you yourself is not 100% pure fula. The pre-Fulas migration into Guinea were mixed. The Fulas are the "glue" of the different tribes in Africa, the beautiful thing.
@@zuricon1925 1. The fulas were never muslims to begin with, mafority of fulas believe in multiple gods just like the other tribes. 2. Islam first spread in East Africa 3. Islam spread from the Arabs to the berbers and it took 500 years for Islam to spread in North Africa 4. Islam spread from the Arabs to the Berbers to the Mandingue-Soninke of ancient Ghana by the "Cisse" "Toure" to the War Diaby Ndiaye forcing Senegalese to convert> 5. Islam was a religion of nobles and kings in Africa such as Baramendana Keita-1050- Empire Kangaba-Mali to Mai Dunama of Niger Chad Nigeria 6. Islam spread with the Mandingue Dioula-Wangara traders to >the Mandingue-Bambara of the keita of Mali Mansa Musa then to >the Guinea Mandingue Susu of the Diakhankés and then the first known fulani Buondou Malick Douda Sy; however, he is also mixed with other african tribes, but credit be given the mass fulani conversion was from 1660s onward started by Malick Sy.
No they didn’t, they had names for certain regions but it wasn’t until the early 1800’s that many African leaders made borders and took certain tribes into there countries to expand. The white man came and tried there hardest to take the culture out of the country not by making borders. Sure they caused borders to even happen, but many of the actual African leaders made these borders and took in certain tribes that were indigenous to another country and added them to there country. This whole there were no borders thing is just an excuse for AA’s to say “Well I can identify as this country because technically there were no borders at the time.”
I’m African American and took the African ancestry DNA test which found that I descend from the Fulani people of Guinea-Bissau with a 100% genetic match which is crazy lol. We could be distant relatives so hey cousin! Lol
@@meyokkob458 I took the African Ancestry DNA test which is black owned and has the largest African DNA database in the world. It specifically said that I descend from the Fula people of Guinea-Bissau. You should look into it because it’s so rewarding. It’s a little expensive so I set up monthly payments.
@@DawneeNorthern thanks because I took the Ancestry DNA test .... I have this feeling that I’m Fulani, because my great grandma use to sew a Gris Gris in our clothing to keep bad spirits away but she was from AL. She didn’t call them Gris Gris but I looked it up. We now live in CT and half my family are Muslim
@@adamdfc9809 LMAO. That was funny but it was also kind of mean too. LOL. Lemme guess? You speak another language other then English? Do you speak Adamawa Fulfulde? How about Pulaar?
Fulani/ Peul and Jola/ Adjamat on my father's ( Gambian) side. I'm dark skinned and people try to say I'm mixed with Arab. Nope, I just think that's it's the diversity of the African continent. We forget that human life started there.
@@arkmanevr2073 Because they are African. Its like so many beautiful pure tribes of Africa. West, east, and south. I absolutely love how beautiful the people the continent of Africa is. Also by the way almost every black person is mixed these days all over the world, even in the U.S. The DNA has proved this. Anytime you mix something with black its extra beautiful. Have a great day ❤
@@arkmanevr2073 yea but I was talking about Fulani tribe which all are not significantly mixed and are very beautiful. I find the dark skin and different unique features very beautiful. They also have dark people in North Africa. I should know! Africa is a diverse continent and I find all of their people do be beautiful and the most beautiful and diverse.
This is very accurate. If she learned her history she would understand the data better. The north Africans who were defending the borders from the Arabs moved to Senegal (west Africa region) and mixed with the people there. They then moved east horizontally towards Sudan looking for flat land to rais cattle.
The problem is after being colonized everyone is stuck on nationality. For the most part you're African nationality and geographically. Your DNA is your blueprint of your spirit sista. I'm a black American and I'm 84% African.
My family is from Cabo Verde. Historically, we are very connected to Guinea and Guinea-Conakry. Most Cape Verdeans have results VERY similar to what your breakdown is including the Jewish DNA. This is due to their heavy presence in the Senegambian area during the Atlantic Slave Trade for Portugal. This may explain your 3% Iberian which is most likely Portuguese due to the history of the Portuguese in this region. I am 42% Senegalese and 5% Mali. I have a higher European (Portuguese, Italian and British) percentage due to the slave trade and 7% Jewish. I have been told I look like a Fulani and when people see a picture of my great-Grandmother, they say without a doubt that we are Fulani.
Now people have to be careful about interpreting DNA test results. Having said that ,the Iberian (Portugal and Spain)Jewish thing (may)have nothing to do with the history of the portuguese in the region it may rather have to do with the History of the Moors (Berbers, Fulanis etc) in the Iberian peninsula
@@MLJ583 very true. Any conversation of DNA has to entail historical facts especially as it has to do with the Diaspora. In the case of Cape Verde, there’s ample information of Jewish exiles involved in the slave trade. That being said there’s not nearly enough being said of the Moorish influence in Spain and Portugal, culturally and genetically.
@@charmsworld8909 You don't know what you are talking about. People inside africa migrated a lot inside africa. The ancient movement was staggering. For example, west africans are not from west africa. West africans migrated from omo valley region of present day ethiopia.
@@charmsworld8909 YES THEY DID. However, PREVIOUSLY before the slave trade. So the "out of Africa" is true. The culture and language is everywhere. But if you don't research and get familiar with the different groups, you'll never recognize it. For instance: "Califate" of PRE-COLONIAL era is the same as the Califate of North Nigeria/Niger/Chad. They were the Fula & Hausa.
The Mali Empire was located in present day Mali to the Atlantic coast in Senegal. I'm African-American & did the DNA test through African Ancestry - I was connected on the mother's line to Guinea-Bissau Fula (Fulanis) & other peoples in Senegal, Sierra Leone and Liberia. I've asked friends born & raised in West Africa, they say I look Fulani. Years ago a woman from Guinea asked me if I was Ethiopian.
Love your video 🙌🏾🇸🇱🇬🇼 Just got my results back from African Ancestry and my results from my mother side is Fulani Guinea Bissau and Mende and Temne people from Sierra Leone. If you can, try to take the African Ancestry DNA test
Take the African Ancestry DNA test. You may also be a Fulani Descendant from Guinea 🇬🇳 . I just got my results back and my lineage traces back to the Fulani of Guinea-Bissau 🇬🇼 with a 100% DNA match ironically.
Sénégal region includes Guinée so it makes perfect sense, Mali includes Guinée so again makes perfect sense. This confirms fulanis are related to North Africa. I’m 100% from Guinea so my results 80 % mali and 12% Senegal
I'm Nigerian Hausa - Fulani are actually our closest friends. They are nice funny, Shy , hardworking beautiful and highly intellectual people. Girl celebrate your ancestry fulani are always proud of who they are.
gallo di terachina Sorry but your facts are wrong, there is no such tribe as Bantu or Arabe...Since Usman don fodio Fulani have been intertwined with the Hausa Bakwai. Can you please provide your sources. Haven’t you ever hear of Hausa Fulani, they intermarried so much that they created a new ethnic group.
Keep in mind that they are testing you against modern populations with no regard to migration. Also, look at the sample population for each region/country. They are very small and not enough for a scientific hypothesis of ethnicity.
Hi, Ancestry updated their results as of Sept 2018. My Senegalese went from 36% to 14% and my Malian/ Guinean went from 20% to 49%. Your Malian probably increased significantly.
Lmaooo...I'm just seing this message...but I'm starting to get that a lot...funny thing is that in HS, I wore bangs quiet often, and often enough I was getting told that I look like Nicki Minaj...lmaooo...the two arthnamesis
@Black Death Amazigh and Copts were originally black tribes that became whiter with the invasions over the years hence why many have e1b1b haplogroup same as many Horners. E1b1b is native to Africa.
Joshua LeonardoASMR Yep. Generally, Arabs, Copts, AND Berbers owe their deep ancestry to E1b1b (East African) males mixing with Eurasian women (haplogroups). It clearly explains their phenotype which is basically a mixture of African and Eurasian, hence the tawny complexion, and other bi-racial features. So many are unaware of this and only choose to identify with the Eurasian (white) side and foolishly try to deny their African heritage, but its written all over their faces. They’re basically light-skinned Africans (Blacks) it dark-skinned Whites depending on your point of reference.
Amazigh are north africans not copts and not Arabs. Copts are Arab converts. Not linked to amazigh at all. Just because they may be similar in colour they are not the same. Amazigh all have north African South med and west African DNA. Arabs are not native to Africa amazigh are.
@@JLDReactions e1b is AFRICAN DNA, horners are half Bantu which is native east African e.g. Kenyan Ugandan etc DNA and half Arabs, amazigh are not Bantu they have west African north African and southern Mediterranean DNA. Nothing to do with horners or Arabs who are immigrants. Horners are more Arab
Interesting, makes sense to me. From my research, I think Futa Toro & Toucouleur region was a major homeland of Fula peoples before they spread to Futa Jallon & other parts of Africa. That homeland area is mostly in Senegal I think but is near the borders with Mali & Mauritania & it definitely spilled into Mali. Plus sounds like you descend from people involved in the trans saharan trade between West Africa & the Iberian Peninsula, so makes sense that there would be North African & Iberian there. Also there were "Jews" in Spain & North Africa, even in Timbuktu historically.
a mistake done by you sista that is common, yes the slave trade started 500 years ago, lasted for 400 years and contiued on illegally for a short period of time after that! but that does not mean you ancestors came here 400 years ago, they could technically be the people that came here 200 years ago or 150 years ago! which means that perhaps you are not that different from your fellow african cousins!
@@freedom_is_gold6747 yh it would be almost impossible for her to be full Fulani like the one on the video as through 400 years alof of different tribe mixing had probably happened among black Americans.
@@omzy8700 actually brother that is not exactly what i said/meant. what i meant is the majority of slaves came here in the 1700's i think 50% of the slave trade happened then, so her lineage in this country doesn't even have to go back to 1600's or 1500's. God knows best but maybe it started in the 1700's maybe in the 1600's or maybe in the 1800's we don't know. google the name redoshi for example she came here 160s, she has grandchildren that are 80-90 i think today. Look at malcom x his mothers grandparents were born in nigeria.
basically the fulas in Guinnea Senegal Mali and gambia are all same fulas moving in the region....i am a Guinnean fula but my family moved from Guinnea to the Gambia.....
I am actually born and grew up in Guinea (my last name is Barry too) and my result are similar to yours except I know the villages of my great grandparents in Guinea. It says most of my DNA is in Nigeria but it can make sense because Fulani people are all in West Africa
@Mamzo Barry, thank you for uploading and sharing your DNA test results. I wish more of our indigenous African brothers and sisters will do the same. Your results were so informative in a multitude of ways. This is a great teaching moment about the legacy and history of European colonialism on the continent creating false geo-political borders that divided families, ethno-groups, cultures etc. that were homogeneic into separate political nation states based solely on European desires for exploitation. The Fulani people because of their nomadic heritage are one of the most Pan-African ethnic groups on the continent. That is why you will find them from Morocco to Ethiopia and parts beyond. The political borders separating Mali Fulani from Guinean Fulani from Senegalese Fulani are preposterous and utterly meaningless. The Fulani were also integral in the Islamic occupation of the Iberian peninsula until the inquisitions and forced expulsion of Muslims from Spain and Portugal in 1492. They intermarried with other cultures they contacted and possessed European slaves and concubines. This could explain your Jewish and/or Middle Eastern DNA. Fulani were also captured as slaves and brought to the Americas. You have many cousins among the African-American community. So, your DNA results alone could expound into a dissertation on African history in so many ways. Thank you again for sharing.
I screamed when I found this video ....i have thesame surname as you and fulani from Guinnea conakry.....can I say you are my sister and probably form thesame area in Guinnea ...cos the Barry's are said to originate from a specific place in Guinnea conakry called Mamou
Please upload your DNA results to GEDmatch- it breaks the results even further, going as far as identifying your tribe. Thanks and oh, this was interesting.
Hey your DNA result totally makes sense! The fulani are originally herdmen and most of the fulani from Guinea arrived in different waves from Mali and Senegal mostly. So there is no surprise. I'm fulani myself and nothing shocking in your result.
If I may explain a little bit your DNA result because it makes sense for me. First, the Kingdom Futa Jaloo in modern days Guinea was the last and youngest that was built by the Fulani in West Africa, the oldest being Sokotoro in Nigeria. Therefore those in today’s Mali and Senegal respectively (Macina and Futa Toro) are more older and because Fulani were cross borders herders, maybe your ancestors just remembered their last address (Guinea). Last, for the Jewish part, there is theory that Fulani were the original habitants of Egypt as the original meaning of Sinai ( the holy mountain in Israel) can only be deciphered in Fulani language. Some claims that they even helped Moses ( Moussa) and his people to cross the red see because they knew better the area and lived with Jewish and others people for longtime before moving south. So it wouldn’t be a surprise for à Fulani to share some DNA with them.
Glad I found your video…. I get asked by Ethiopians all the time if I’m Ethiopian…. I’m African American…However,I now tell them that my Ancestry traces back to the Fula people in Guinea Bissau … that is my maternal line. It’s so crazy but Fulani’s do look like Ethiopians… Your face even reminds me of the late great Tina Turner… thank you for taking the test it helps us find our ties in West Africa.
North Africa makes sense since she has ancestry from Mali.. Tuaregs and Fulani have a very long history together. Tuaregs are Amazigh....other tribes like the Toubou have Middle East origins but look very similar to Tuaregs or Fulani. The Songhai empire was in Mali. The Senegalese were a part of the Africans that united with Moors to conquer Iberia.
No they don't im somalis and toubous were created the same way as us. They have nilotic and western eurasian ancestory with somalis just have a little more western eurasian. This situation happened in the last last ice age during neolithic and when sahara was green and full of proto nilotes.
@@mazen2ii I recommend you look into dna of your people we are not from the middle east. We are just distantly related to amazighs who are native to north africa. We are indigenous african people.
Hey, be sure to check your DNA matches, on AncestryDNA. You may have African American cousins, whose ancestors came from your family, during the TransAtlantic Slave Trade.
The Iberian and European Jewish/ Middle Eastern likely comes from the North African part. Some of your ancestors must have been Moors that ruled Spain and parts of Portugal. Look into the history of Andalusia.
@Ray of Lyte he's a dumbass, back in the day ask him why they (true Whites) called especially Sicillians stock of Italians "Guineas" and what that meant????? He's trying to act like he's accepted as an Aryan stock when the real ones know his bloodline is tainted lol what a dumb troglodyte. If we're going to argue North Africa crap then tell me why on average they differ/look more ethnic then the Arabs whom don't except them fully as such, I can run circles around these dumb clowns.
@Mamzo Barry good video, don't be shock, majority of fulas came from upper Senegal into Guinea, don't forget that modern Guinea today was actually ancient Mali empire with the capital being Niani. And also about your jewish DNA come from your north african blood line because the jews migrated to north africa in 70AD fleeing from Romans persecution.
Salaam Alaikum Mamzu Barry, You should have checked out the African Ancestry DNA company in Washington, DC area. They are the very first University to go into African DNA and others copy from them. I know many Africans who have taken the DNA test from a Fulani Professor at Howard University Washington, DC.
The result seems accurate. It is based on samples taken from different countries and continents. Nigeria has a large Fulani population, but it wasn't mentioned. Nigeria is more than half the population of West Africa. Guinea, Mali, and Senegal border with each other. As time goes on, those numbers will change as they get more data in their database. They reason Guinea is low is because they probably have few genetic samples from Guinea, which is a small country in population. Some of the percentages from Togo etc.., are samples of Fulani in those places who may have migrated from the Futa parts of West Africa.
Recently matched with a woman on Ancestry named Fatoumata Balde. Is this a common Fula name? I wonder if this means I could have multiple fulani lines.
I was becoming agitated at the lack of historical knowledge but there are some interesting things here nonetheless. The Iberian peninsula DNA may indicate that your ancestors participated in the Moorish renaissance of Spain. The results seem to indicate that Fulani come from what is now Senegal.
That was interesting. I would assume that the North African and Middle Eastern and the Jewish and Iberian ancestry go together. For example, you might have a Sephardic Jewish ancestor who migrated from Spain to North Africa who mixed with an individual of Arab Berber ancestry who then mixed with an individual of your varieties of West African ancestry and voila.
most people who are fulani have a high percent of Senegalese dna because that’s were fulanis first settled & then spread throught out west africa. Like I’m Fulani & was born in Senegal so my dna break down was 74% Senegal, 13% Mali & 9% North African but it dint have any Middle East dna. I did it through AncestryDNA. You can also down your raw dna data and put it in my heritage, dna land & gedmatch
@Peter Connell Not really. Why ancient and recent? It doesn't make sense because the Portuguese colonizers took Mandika people mostly from the Senegambian region. The North African and Sub-Saharan african heritage can be both ancient or recent in terms of genetics but not in term of historical period. Some Senegalese have a North African lineage that can be explained by history as the North African Berbers were mixing with the Sub-Saharans in the Neolithic when the Sahara wasn't dry. They were also in contact when the Ghana, Mali and Songhai empires were dominating the territories included in Mauritania, Senegambia, Mali, The Guineas, Niger...etc. History and genetics also showed Berbers, some Iberians and some Western Asians have paternal haplogroup E1b1b which originated in the Horn of Africa. E1b1a whose bearers are mostly Sub-Saharans is a parent to E1b1b. They both come from haplogroup E-P2 which originated in eastern Africa. So they are closely related.
About the Ashkenazi Jewish, their DNA is very close to middle east DNA but they were a very closed group with regard to intermarrying outside of Judaism in Europe so they are able to actually test for that. Sephardic Jewish DNA comes back as middle eastern so it is possible that you had a 4x great grandparent who was Jewish.
@Russell Strong no true Ashkenazi dna is soley a European DNA due to inbreeding with no middle East DNA at all...they don't have any links to Semitic people
@lobsterbale Legesse They are Jews. However they are plagiarist in tge sense they lie. Mixing their history with Egypt. Claiming Solomon was the richest man in the world. How did he obtain his wealth? The answer he was just average man.
I'm African American and the more I RUclips Fulani's the more I'm starting to think you all are my people. You look like one of my sister's, I got to get my DNA done!
The Fulani-stines (Philistines) sold us co called negros (Israelites) to the Greecians (Europeans) and that's why they have slave castles on the West Coast of Africa. You can see this in the Old Testament in the Book of Joel 3:1-7
Most people north Nigeria are Hausa not Fulani ,some are Fulani and also because Fulani originated from Senegal Gambia and are found a lot in countries like Guinea ,mali ,Senegal Gambia Mauritanian etc.
@@omzy8700 The Hausas of Nigeria are very mixed with the Fulani but they have to identify themselves as Hausas because they are predominant in population and culture.

Hi sister welcome to Senegal, Fulanis migrated from ancient Egypt, throughout west Africa. I know that the higher percentage in DNA is the most recent, and that some Jews migrated to Africa.
Fulani race existed way before Islam, they have their distinctive futures since prophet Ibrahim. Fulani are separate race still black just like the Arabs people being different. Islam just make Fulani more similar to the Arab even though Islam is not only for arabs but the culture are more similar.
What about South African Fulani who call themselves Zulu? Or the rest in Southern and Central Africa who call themselves Tswana, Mbezi or Pedi or second tribe, Sotho - who dress up like Fulani traditionally etc.
@@1ntuthukozwane Zulu are Bantoue who mixed with Khoisan people. Fulani are not bantoue, they are Senegambian, not bantoue. They are ancient North Africa/Sahara natives Senegambian wh mixed with North Africa
@@ahata7245 But Zulus call themselves Fulani in Gambia and in South Africa. Part of the Bileni or Benin people. You are speaking eugenics and not real history as told by ourselves.
@@ahata7245 Zulus come from West Africa, originally. Even Ethiopians call us West Africans. Listen, the famous Samori Toure of the Gambian Wasoulou Kingdom of the 1800s has 2 Zulu names. Soulou is Zulu in French spelling. Also, Toure means elephant in Mandinga. We say Ntuli or Lutuli since we Zulu-lamguage speakers in South Africa do not use the letter r. We came through Mozambique, Angola, Kenya-Ethiopia and Sudan-Chad-Niger through multiple waves of migrations to inhabit South Africa for various reason. Ethnically, we are the same. We use the same tribal names for each other. Fulani specifically comes from the word Nguni or Guni (in the Bible and a son of Naphtali - we stay in a province called KwaZulu Natal - Nigerians say Ogun or Jukun which is what their fanous general and ruler Ozolua - pronounced Ozolwa - which means "he who fights" in South African Zulu and Esan language, who was originally called Ekpame or Mbame - which is a name in all of Africa) whose sons through Abdiel or Obadias or Obadan or Dan or Zwane or Gio bore the Kings of the Tribe of Gad which was the Israelite army that became known was Fenkhu or Phoenicians and who lived in North Africa in the later stages of the Israelite Kingdom and also where the remnamt of Israel went to after Babylonian exile. Fengu or Bhengu people bore the Nguni or Benguni or Buleni or Bileni or Benin or Buli or Mabhoyi or Fingo people called Zulu or Wasoulou. These were based in Eddo in Benin-state Nigeria which was in leagues and same tribes as Cameroon people. The Eddo through differeny wars spread throighout the rest of Africa and conquered and colonised the people living in those countries and fought all the way, our last batter being between Portuguese, Dutch and Lunda-Luba or Zuluba people. The Toure is translated to Zhou or Zuma (which is the real reason why there is a Zuma hill in Nigeria, it means Elephant people) or Ndou or Duma or Mando or BaNdou or Bantu or Ntu or Dube or Matamba or Thaba or Mbatha or Mpanza or Mbanza (Kongo) or Vatha or Tobe people who bore the Toel or Duel or Toure or Ntuli. Godo and Nguni or Cedar is the same word and it means Carpenter or Wood also called Sekoto or Sigodo. Also, the Nazareth that Jesus was from was also called Nazori which literally means KaZulu or Ozolua or Zulawa or Zeroua or Siloa and our King is called Silo, which is what the City of David was called, also called Sela.
@Mamzo Barry Mamzo BARRY, FULANI People existed centuries before the birth of Islam and Arabs. You must know that and learn a lot about your real history and the FULANIS. The origins of the Fulani people are unclear and various theories have been postulated. As a nomadic herding people, they have moved through and among many other cultures. Skutsch notes that the FULANIS oral histories point toward a start in Jordan or farther east. Skutsch concludes that the modern FULANI people began in the northern Senegambian region. Today, we know with a virtual certainty that FULANIS are of Egyptian origin.
1. The first inhabitants of West Africa were black and they created the kingdoms or Ghana (current Senegal, Mauritania), Songhai, Mali and Benin (incl. Yoruba). That is why you have around 60% Senegal and Mali. 2. Before Islam, the black West Africans first traded, fought in wars and intermarried with the Amazigh or nomadic Berber tribes who are the indigenous inhabitants of North Africa and Sahara. Many Tchadic or Sudanese tribes also migrated towards West in search of gold and grazing land for their cattle. This is why you got 20% Berber or North Africa. 3. In the 7th century AD, the Arabs invaded North and West Africa, brought Islam and married the locals who were already mixed black and berber. After converting to Islam, many Africans (Mansa Musa) made pilgrimage trips to Arabia (Meca and beyond) and they may have brought back Arabic wives. This is probably why you got 10% Arab. 4. Around the 15th century, Portuguese explorers sailed to the coastal cities of Guinea, Senegal and Benin. They settled and married the indigenous people especially in Cape verde, Guinea and Lagos where they fought for the Yoruba. The Spanish and Portuguese were also involved in the slave trade. This is why you got 1 to 3% Iberian element. 5. The British and French conquered and colonized most parts of North and West Africa for decades. The colonialists raped many indigenous girls and women. There is minor element of Caucasian in many parts of Africa. 6. Globalization will also affect the African DNA with the increasing global trade, international air travel, education, interracial marriage etc. The rise of China and the migration of their workers to Africa will also modify the genetic code.
I have a 4th great-grandfather who's possibly African and I get 1% Mali on Ancestry. On other DNA test I get 1% North African and 1% Sephardic Jewish instead of 1% Mali. On Myheritage I get 1% North African and 2.3% Nigerian. I think Ancestry DNA is probably the most accurate since they have the largest amount of people using it who contributed DNA samples.
I think all west and central Africans can identify a fulani person by their look. However, fulanis from Nigeria, Cameroon and Central African Republic look different from the once from the extreme western part of Africa (Senegal, Guinea, Mali etc). I can tell the African country a fulani person is from by just looking at them. I knew you were Guinea not because of your last name (as that name can be found in Senegal and Mali as well) but because of your appearance. Thanks for sharing.
Syster syster Morocco is the only country that have bloodmix with westafrica and The Fulanies not Algeria not Tunisia or else. I'm moroccan: 7% nigeria 6% westafrica 2% Spain 85% Morocco (Not Arab but amazigh) 98% african Since my childhood I knew I was "black" my father's side are black moroccans.

@@Mamzo_barry that’s because you originated from the nomad tribes of Berbera who left Somalia and then became the Amazigh of North Africa, Moors, Fulani etc...you are one of the lost tribes of Somalia hun. Much love 🇸🇴
@@Mamzo_barry i had a cousin match on ancestry who was fulani and we shared 4 other fulani cousins. And im African American so im curious when did my ancestor leave Africa.
I'm mostly Fulani from my 23andme ancestry results, it also says I'm a direct descendant of Pharaoh Ramesess III. We (Fulani) definitely are mixed with North and West African
Sumi757 Well exactly, there are about two or three people who have that on their haplogroup report from 23 and me. Sorry that I cannot give you the reference. Not sure if they had a connection or share dna from Ramses III or his wife.
To give context: Some studies say that Fulani people actually originate from North Africa. As a tribe we are originally nomadic, in fact we are still the one of the most nomadic tribes in Africa. Given the population in Senegal and Guinea of our people and them being so close, it’s not a big surprise.Take in account that Fulani people did travel far and were colonized too.
How can you originate from North Africa while it's only a minor portion of your dna (15-25%)? It's like saying afro americans originate from Europe because of their minor european admixture. Fulanis originate from western sahel(Senegal, Mauritania, Mali) and are a mix of Senegambians and North africans(a bit of East Africa too)
Hi - I’m an African American and through DNA I have been associated to the Fulani people. Most Native Africans tell me I definitely look Fulani before I even tell them my DNA results. I have a strong desire to learn more about your culture and hopefully find some DNA relatives. Also, I show 21% Mali on my DNA test. Any Native Fulani people willing to connect?
You being Fula, I would expect most or half of your DNA to be from the Senegambia region. And if you want to subdivide it even further, I would expect a high percentage of Seereer ancestry in you. The Seereer are the ancestor of the Fula, Toucouleur, Wolof and Lebou. This is why the Fula language is closer to Seereer than any other language. The origin of the Fula is within the Senegambia region where the Seereer are found today.

My father is a Guinean Fulani and my mother is a Sierra Leonean whose family migrated from Mali (madinka) my result was: Senegal: 44% Ghana/Ivory: Coast 29% Mali: 10% Africa North: 6% South Eastern Bantu 7% Iberian peninsula: 2% Togo/Benin 1% Nigeria: 1% My father would probably have a similar mix to yours
Hello my name is Jonathan Cayol & I am a Christian Fulani. My Fulani name is DaVouda Ba, my dad is from Guinea & his name is Ibraham Ba & my grandpa name is DaVouda Ba I'm named after him. My Fulani name is treated as my middle name.
The Fulani ethnogenesis began in Senegal, as a result of the Moroccan Berber Arabs intermarrying with the black Sub-Saharan Serer, following thenceforth the Fulani expanding across the western Sahel, and the northerly halves of several West African countries. It’s obvious you have a lot of relatives remaining in Senegal, who remained from several generations a go prior branching out throughout the rest of the western Sahel. I wouldn’t think much of it. Mali, Senegal, and Guinea are all right together, as you know or saw on the Ancestry DNA map your Guinean dna is encompassed in the Malian ethnicity estimate. Plus a portion of the Senegalese ethnicity estimate on their map encompasses Guinea Bissau, touching the Guinean border, and if you have Northwestern Fulani kin their dna would definitely be close to Guinea Bissauans.
Keep in mind, today's borders we have on modern day maps defining borders between nations did not exist before the twenty century. The majority of all of western Africa waa called Bilaad as-Suudan "Lands of the Blacks. " Check out the place names of 1720. They moved things around. libweb5.princeton.edu/visual_materials/maps/websites/africa/maps-continent/continent.html Senegal and Guinea shared a lot.

@@ndiayek nah. She is a west african beautiful woman. Regarding her North Africa/Middle East admixtures, Fulani got them from an ancient North African native population that resembled the Berbers
@@ahata7245 Lol. I'm myself Fulani/Toucouleur and I already took DNA tests that confirmed some theories. Fulani people are clearly a mixed ethnic group whose origins are quite recent historically and genetically. According to geneticist Sarah Tishkoff, Fulani people come originally from Central African areas like Chad before migrating to Western Africa during the antiquity. They are even quite similar genetically to Central African and Western African populations. According to studies conducted by her team, they speculated that Fulanis used to speak an Afro-Asiatic before adopting a Niger-Congo language. They also exhibit some levels of North African, European and Middle Eastern ancestry. So they're not clearly West Africans.
@@ahata7245 the Berbers came from Berbera, a city in northern Somalia 🇸🇴. There’s only one Berbera in the world, and till this day the berbers of the desert 🏜 claim their ancestors are from there. Culture, food and language make up an individual’s nationality. But things like features and personality traits can only be inherited through genetic make. I know it’s hard for some to admit our history, but the beautiful tribes of East Africa are the mother of most modern humans and that’s a fact 🇸🇴 🇪🇹 🇪🇷
Mali, guinea, Senegal was all apart of one land. Makes perfect sense.
Many west Africans are the same people
Based on your Guinean heritage , this DNA test is spot on actually. The Fulas from Senegal, Guinea, Gambia, Mali etc are basically the same people moving around. Some will live in one country but the bulk of their relatives and cousins will be in another country. Colonialism divided these regions but the DNA is still much less the same.

Islam spread from the Arabs to the Berbers to the Mandingue-Soninke of ancient Ghana by the "Cisse" "Toure" to the War Diaby Ndiaye forcing Senegalese to convert> 5. Islam was a religion of nobles and kings in Africa such as Baramendana Keita-1050- Empire Kangaba-Mali to Mai Dunama of Niger Chad Nigeria 6.

Before European Colonization Fulani States in it's various forms were the best in West Africa.
No they didn’t, they had names for certain regions but it wasn’t until the early 1800’s that many African leaders made borders and took certain tribes into there countries to expand. The white man came and tried there hardest to take the culture out of the country not by making borders. Sure they caused borders to even happen, but many of the actual African leaders made these borders and took in certain tribes that were indigenous to another country and added them to there country. This whole there were no borders thing is just an excuse for AA’s to say “Well I can identify as this country because technically there were no borders at the time.”

This is very accurate. If she learned her history she would understand the data better. The north Africans who were defending the borders from the Arabs moved to Senegal (west Africa region) and mixed with the people there. They then moved east horizontally towards Sudan looking for flat land to rais cattle.

what is a black? Nationality: American Ethnically: Multi-Ethnic
My family is from Cabo Verde. Historically, we are very connected to Guinea and Guinea-Conakry. Most Cape Verdeans have results VERY similar to what your breakdown is including the Jewish DNA. This is due to their heavy presence in the Senegambian area during the Atlantic Slave Trade for Portugal. This may explain your 3% Iberian which is most likely Portuguese due to the history of the Portuguese in this region. I am 42% Senegalese and 5% Mali. I have a higher European (Portuguese, Italian and British) percentage due to the slave trade and 7% Jewish. I have been told I look like a Fulani and when people see a picture of my great-Grandmother, they say without a doubt that we are Fulani.
Now people have to be careful about interpreting DNA test results. Having said that ,the Iberian (Portugal and Spain)Jewish thing (may)have nothing to do with the history of the portuguese in the region it may rather have to do with the History of the Moors (Berbers, Fulanis etc) in the Iberian peninsula
@@MLJ583 very true. Any conversation of DNA has to entail historical facts especially as it has to do with the Diaspora. In the case of Cape Verde, there’s ample information of Jewish exiles involved in the slave trade. That being said there’s not nearly enough being said of the Moorish influence in Spain and Portugal, culturally and genetically.

Exactly.
People from Africa did not migrate anywhere, they were taken from their homeland unwillingly.don't get it twisted
@@charmsworld8909
You don't know what you are talking about. People inside africa migrated a lot inside africa. The ancient movement was staggering. For example, west africans are not from west africa. West africans migrated from omo valley region of present day ethiopia.
@@charmsworld8909 YES THEY DID. However, PREVIOUSLY before the slave trade. So the "out of Africa" is true. The culture and language is everywhere. But if you don't research and get familiar with the different groups, you'll never recognize it.
For instance: "Califate" of PRE-COLONIAL era is the same as the Califate of North Nigeria/Niger/Chad. They were the Fula & Hausa.
The Mali Empire was located in present day Mali to the Atlantic coast in Senegal. I'm African-American & did the DNA test through African Ancestry - I was connected on the mother's line to Guinea-Bissau Fula (Fulanis) & other peoples in Senegal, Sierra Leone and Liberia. I've asked friends born & raised in West Africa, they say I look Fulani. Years ago a woman from Guinea asked me if I was Ethiopian.

Keep in mind that they are testing you against modern populations with no regard to migration. Also, look at the sample population for each region/country. They are very small and not enough for a scientific hypothesis of ethnicity.

North Africans are not originally Arab, their originally Amazigh and Coptic. So consider the North African as African not really Arab genetically
@Black Death Amazigh and Copts were originally black tribes that became whiter with the invasions over the years hence why many have e1b1b haplogroup same as many Horners. E1b1b is native to Africa.
Joshua LeonardoASMR Yep. Generally, Arabs, Copts, AND Berbers owe their deep ancestry to E1b1b (East African) males mixing with Eurasian women (haplogroups). It clearly explains their phenotype which is basically a mixture of African and Eurasian, hence the tawny complexion, and other bi-racial features. So many are unaware of this and only choose to identify with the Eurasian (white) side and foolishly try to deny their African heritage, but its written all over their faces. They’re basically light-skinned Africans (Blacks) it dark-skinned Whites depending on your point of reference.
Amazigh are north africans not copts and not Arabs. Copts are Arab converts. Not linked to amazigh at all. Just because they may be similar in colour they are not the same. Amazigh all have north African South med and west African DNA. Arabs are not native to Africa amazigh are.
@BLACK DEATH amazigh are not invaders....
@@JLDReactions e1b is AFRICAN DNA, horners are half Bantu which is native east African e.g. Kenyan Ugandan etc DNA and half Arabs, amazigh are not Bantu they have west African north African and southern Mediterranean DNA. Nothing to do with horners or Arabs who are immigrants. Horners are more Arab
Interesting, makes sense to me. From my research, I think Futa Toro & Toucouleur region was a major homeland of Fula peoples before they spread to Futa Jallon & other parts of Africa. That homeland area is mostly in Senegal I think but is near the borders with Mali & Mauritania & it definitely spilled into Mali. Plus sounds like you descend from people involved in the trans saharan trade between West Africa & the Iberian Peninsula, so makes sense that there would be North African & Iberian there. Also there were "Jews" in Spain & North Africa, even in Timbuktu historically.
I too am mostly Fulani... I always looks for the common features even after 400 years...
And you look Fulani
a mistake done by you sista that is common, yes the slave trade started 500 years ago, lasted for 400 years and contiued on illegally for a short period of time after that! but that does not mean you ancestors came here 400 years ago, they could technically be the people that came here 200 years ago or 150 years ago! which means that perhaps you are not that different from your fellow african cousins!
@@freedom_is_gold6747 yh it would be almost impossible for her to be full Fulani like the one on the video as through 400 years alof of different tribe mixing had probably happened among black Americans.
@@omzy8700 actually brother that is not exactly what i said/meant. what i meant is the majority of slaves came here in the 1700's i think 50% of the slave trade happened then, so her lineage in this country doesn't even have to go back to 1600's or 1500's. God knows best but maybe it started in the 1700's maybe in the 1600's or maybe in the 1800's we don't know. google the name redoshi for example she came here 160s, she has grandchildren that are 80-90 i think today.

Hey. You order the test kit from their website, www.ancestrydna.com
There are fulani people in 24 country in africa
@Mamzo Barry, thank you for uploading and sharing your DNA test results. I wish more of our indigenous African brothers and sisters will do the same. Your results were so informative in a multitude of ways. This is a great teaching moment about the legacy and history of European colonialism on the continent creating false geo-political borders that divided families, ethno-groups, cultures etc. that were homogeneic into separate political nation states based solely on European desires for exploitation. The Fulani people because of their nomadic heritage are one of the most Pan-African ethnic groups on the continent. That is why you will find them from Morocco to Ethiopia and parts beyond. The political borders separating Mali Fulani from Guinean Fulani from Senegalese Fulani are preposterous and utterly meaningless. The Fulani were also integral in the Islamic occupation of the Iberian peninsula until the inquisitions and forced expulsion of Muslims from Spain and Portugal in 1492. They intermarried with other cultures they contacted and possessed European slaves and concubines. This could explain your Jewish and/or Middle Eastern DNA. Fulani were also captured as slaves and brought to the Americas. You have many cousins among the African-American community. So, your DNA results alone could expound into a dissertation on African history in so many ways. Thank you again for sharing.
I screamed when I found this video ....i have thesame surname as you and fulani from Guinnea conakry.....can I say you are my sister and probably form thesame area in Guinnea ...cos the Barry's are said to originate from a specific place in Guinnea conakry called Mamou

Nice to know...thanks for watching
@@Mamzo_barry u welcome I'm also thinking about taking the test😊
If I may explain a little bit your DNA result because it makes sense for me.
First, the Kingdom Futa Jaloo in modern days Guinea was the last and youngest that was built by the Fulani in West Africa, the oldest being Sokotoro in Nigeria. Therefore those in today’s Mali and Senegal respectively (Macina and Futa Toro) are more older and because Fulani were cross borders herders, maybe your ancestors just remembered their last address (Guinea).
Last, for the Jewish part, there is theory that Fulani were the original habitants of Egypt as the original meaning of Sinai ( the holy mountain in Israel) can only be deciphered in Fulani language. Some claims that they even helped Moses ( Moussa) and his people to cross the red see because they knew better the area and lived with Jewish and others people for longtime before moving south. So it wouldn’t be a surprise for à Fulani to share some DNA with them.
Oh wow...thanks for the quick lesson..lol
Sokoto is a Hausa kingdom that the Fulani (precisely the Toucouleurs) conquered quite recently.
Absolutely 💯 you have given the Answer. I'm a proud to be a fulani from Guinea fouta djalo

North Africa makes sense since she has ancestry from Mali.. Tuaregs and Fulani have a very long history together.

The result seems accurate. It is based on samples taken from different countries and continents. Nigeria has a large Fulani population, but it wasn't mentioned. Nigeria is more than half the population of West Africa. Guinea, Mali, and Senegal border with each other. As time goes on, those numbers will change as they get more data in their database. They reason Guinea is low is because they probably have few genetic samples from Guinea, which is a small country in population. Some of the percentages from Togo etc.., are samples of Fulani in those places who may have migrated from the Futa parts of West Africa.
Recently matched with a woman on Ancestry named Fatoumata Balde. Is this a common Fula name?

I was becoming agitated at the lack of historical knowledge but there are some interesting things here nonetheless. The Iberian peninsula DNA may indicate that your ancestors participated in the Moorish renaissance of Spain. The results seem to indicate that Fulani come from what is now Senegal.
That was interesting. I would assume that the North African and Middle Eastern and the Jewish and Iberian ancestry go together. For example, you might have a Sephardic Jewish ancestor who migrated from Spain to North Africa who mixed with an individual of Arab Berber ancestry who then mixed with an individual of your varieties of West African ancestry and voila.
Yup...and now we got me..lol
I would have thought the Middle Eastern dna is from Jews who were the ancestors of her Spanish Jewish Ancestors.
There are alot of Fulani's in Mali & Senegal & east & west. Don't worry about location because location is not important as tribe.
most people who are fulani have a high percent of Senegalese dna because that’s were fulanis first settled & then spread throught out west africa. Like I’m Fulani & was born in Senegal so my dna break down was 74% Senegal, 13% Mali & 9% North African but it dint have any Middle East dna. I did it through AncestryDNA.

@Peter Connell Not really. Why ancient and recent? It doesn't make sense because the Portuguese colonizers took Mandika people mostly from the Senegambian region. The North African and Sub-Saharan african heritage can be both ancient or recent in terms of genetics but not in term of historical period. Some Senegalese have a North African lineage that can be explained by history as the North African Berbers were mixing with the Sub-Saharans in the Neolithic when the Sahara wasn't dry. They were also in contact when the Ghana, Mali and Songhai empires were dominating the territories included in Mauritania, Senegambia, Mali, The Guineas, Niger...etc. History and genetics also showed Berbers, some Iberians and some Western Asians have paternal haplogroup E1b1b which originated in the Horn of Africa. E1b1a whose bearers are mostly Sub-Saharans is a parent to E1b1b. They both come from haplogroup E-P2 which originated in eastern Africa. So they are closely related.
@@mimiw8972 Mandinka Senegambians for the most part.
About the Ashkenazi Jewish, their DNA is very close to middle east DNA but they were a very closed group with regard to intermarrying outside of Judaism in Europe
so they are able to actually test for that. Sephardic Jewish DNA comes back as middle eastern so it is possible that you had a 4x great grandparent who was Jewish.
@Russell Strong no true Ashkenazi dna is soley a European DNA due to inbreeding with no middle East DNA at all...they don't have any links to Semitic people
Not close at all they are converts
Not true. European Jews are not related to people from the middle east. They are White.
@Russell Strong Most White people have a "hint" of Middle Eastern dna. Sorry Jews are not special. Just White. Except the Black ones.
@lobsterbale Legesse They are Jews. However they are plagiarist in tge sense they lie. Mixing their history with Egypt. Claiming Solomon was the richest man in the world. How did he obtain his wealth? The answer he was just average man.
I am a Fulani from Guinée Conakry (Foutah Djallon) a “Barry seedyanke” from Timbo to be precies.
I'm African American and the more I RUclips Fulani's the more I'm starting to think you all are my people. You look like one of my sister's, I got to get my DNA done!
So cool
The Fulani-stines (Philistines) sold us co called negros (Israelites) to the Greecians (Europeans) and that's why they have slave castles on the West Coast of Africa. You can see this in the Old Testament in the Book of Joel 3:1-7
Why are most people claiming to be Fulani from Guinea or Mali etc while over 70% of Fulanis resides in Nigeria?
Most people north Nigeria are Hausa not Fulani ,some are Fulani and also because Fulani originated from Senegal Gambia and are found a lot in countries like Guinea ,mali ,Senegal Gambia Mauritanian etc.
@@omzy8700 The Hausas of Nigeria are very mixed with the Fulani but they have to identify themselves as Hausas because they are predominant in population and culture.

She isn't bleaching her skin
I hope but her hands darker than her face 🤦🏾♂️
@@amirhassan6458 sometimes it happens bro! I'm very light but my face is lighter than my rest part. I assure u I don't even use simple make . I'm very natural lady.
Lili Zdg but we know when someone bleach their skin. Am a woman from Senegal and believe me when I say that as you would believe an Ivorian woman who says that. Cuz we know. I don’t bleach but I’ve been around it all my life. I even used to apply the cream for my mom and aunt. And it would do the same thing to my hands. Cuz there’s that part that never lighten. Even when u don’t bleach there’s that dark part. So when u bleach that part stay as dark as it was when u were dark. So it’s obvious.
I love how you so sure abt what goes on with my skin. I dont shame people who bleach their as society and the media bring a lot of insecurities to brown and dark skin. However I have never bleached my skin, or thought of it. The assumption that I couldn't be naturally medium toned is absurd but it goes down to the idea that black or African women can't be naturally light skinned.
Hi sister welcome to Senegal, Fulanis migrated from ancient Egypt, throughout west Africa. I know that the higher percentage in DNA is the most recent, and that some Jews migrated to Africa.
Fulani migrated from balochistan Egypt and to the rest of Africa
your 16% amazigh that's so cool and interesting
Lol...im 100% amazing
Do you use bleaching creams?
Fulani race existed way before Islam, they have their distinctive futures since prophet Ibrahim. Fulani are separate race still black just like the Arabs people being different. Islam just make Fulani more similar to the Arab even though Islam is not only for arabs but the culture are more similar.
@samake lea I know that, didn't you read properly?
What about South African Fulani who call themselves Zulu? Or the rest in Southern and Central Africa who call themselves Tswana, Mbezi or Pedi or second tribe, Sotho - who dress up like Fulani traditionally etc.
@@1ntuthukozwane Zulu are Bantoue who mixed with Khoisan people.
Fulani are not bantoue, they are Senegambian, not bantoue. They are ancient North Africa/Sahara natives Senegambian wh mixed with North Africa
@@ahata7245 But Zulus call themselves Fulani in Gambia and in South Africa. Part of the Bileni or Benin people. You are speaking eugenics and not real history as told by ourselves.
@@ahata7245 Zulus come from West Africa, originally. Even Ethiopians call us West Africans. Listen, the famous Samori Toure of the Gambian Wasoulou Kingdom of the 1800s has 2 Zulu names. Soulou is Zulu in French spelling. Also, Toure means elephant in Mandinga. We say Ntuli or Lutuli since we Zulu-lamguage speakers in South Africa do not use the letter r. We came through Mozambique, Angola, Kenya-Ethiopia and Sudan-Chad-Niger through multiple waves of migrations to inhabit South Africa for various reason. Ethnically, we are the same. We use the same tribal names for each other.
Fulani specifically comes from the word Nguni or Guni (in the Bible and a son of Naphtali - we stay in a province called KwaZulu Natal - Nigerians say Ogun or Jukun which is what their fanous general and ruler Ozolua - pronounced Ozolwa - which means "he who fights" in South African Zulu and Esan language, who was originally called Ekpame or Mbame - which is a name in all of Africa) whose sons through Abdiel or Obadias or Obadan or Dan or Zwane or Gio bore the Kings of the Tribe of Gad which was the Israelite army that became known was Fenkhu or Phoenicians and who lived in North Africa in the later stages of the Israelite Kingdom and also where the remnamt of Israel went to after Babylonian exile.
Fengu or Bhengu people bore the Nguni or Benguni or Buleni or Bileni or Benin or Buli or Mabhoyi or Fingo people called Zulu or Wasoulou. These were based in Eddo in Benin-state Nigeria which was in leagues and same tribes as Cameroon people. The Eddo through differeny wars spread throighout the rest of Africa and conquered and colonised the people living in those countries and fought all the way, our last batter being between Portuguese, Dutch and Lunda-Luba or Zuluba people.
The Toure is translated to Zhou or Zuma (which is the real reason why there is a Zuma hill in Nigeria, it means Elephant people) or Ndou or Duma or Mando or BaNdou or Bantu or Ntu or Dube or Matamba or Thaba or Mbatha or Mpanza or Mbanza (Kongo) or Vatha or Tobe people who bore the Toel or Duel or Toure or Ntuli.
Godo and Nguni or Cedar is the same word and it means Carpenter or Wood also called Sekoto or Sigodo. Also, the Nazareth that Jesus was from was also called Nazori which literally means KaZulu or Ozolua or Zulawa or Zeroua or Siloa and our King is called Silo, which is what the City of David was called, also called Sela.
I'm guessing that the percentage from North Africa may come from an Ancestor of an Amazigh (Berber) tribe.
@Mamzo Barry
Mamzo BARRY, FULANI People existed centuries before the birth of Islam and Arabs. You must know that and learn a lot about your real history and the FULANIS.
The origins of the Fulani people are unclear and various theories have been postulated. As a nomadic herding people, they have moved through and among many other cultures.
Skutsch notes that the FULANIS oral histories point toward a start in Jordan or farther east. Skutsch concludes that the modern FULANI people began in the northern Senegambian region.
Today, we know with a virtual certainty that FULANIS are of Egyptian origin.
1. The first inhabitants of West Africa were black and they created the kingdoms or Ghana (current Senegal, Mauritania), Songhai, Mali and Benin (incl. Yoruba). That is why you have around 60% Senegal and Mali.
2. Before Islam, the black West Africans first traded, fought in wars and intermarried with the Amazigh or nomadic Berber tribes who are the indigenous inhabitants of North Africa and Sahara. Many Tchadic or Sudanese tribes also migrated towards West in search of gold and grazing land for their cattle. This is why you got 20% Berber or North Africa.
3. In the 7th century AD, the Arabs invaded North and West Africa, brought Islam and married the locals who were already mixed black and berber. After converting to Islam, many Africans (Mansa Musa) made pilgrimage trips to Arabia (Meca and beyond) and they may have brought back Arabic wives. This is probably why you got 10% Arab.
4. Around the 15th century, Portuguese explorers sailed to the coastal cities of Guinea, Senegal and Benin. They settled and married the indigenous people especially in Cape verde, Guinea and Lagos where they fought for the Yoruba. The Spanish and Portuguese were also involved in the slave trade. This is why you got 1 to 3% Iberian element.
5. The British and French conquered and colonized most parts of North and West Africa for decades. The colonialists raped many indigenous girls and women. There is minor element of Caucasian in many parts of Africa.
6. Globalization will also affect the African DNA with the increasing global trade, international air travel, education, interracial marriage etc. The rise of China and the migration of their workers to Africa will also modify the genetic code.

@Fatimaxn Barry tks 👍👍
I have a 4th great-grandfather who's possibly African and I get 1% Mali on Ancestry. On other DNA test I get 1% North African and 1% Sephardic Jewish instead of 1% Mali. On Myheritage I get 1% North African and 2.3% Nigerian. I think Ancestry DNA is probably the most accurate since they have the largest amount of people using it who contributed DNA samples.
Fulani people can recognize other Fulani people, so true
I guess it depends on where you come from as a Fulani because honestly that wasn't my experience as a Fulani from Cameroon.
I think all west and central Africans can identify a fulani person by their look. However, fulanis from Nigeria, Cameroon and Central African Republic look different from the once from the extreme western part of Africa (Senegal, Guinea, Mali etc). I can tell the African country a fulani person is from by just looking at them. I knew you were Guinea not because of your last name (as that name can be found in Senegal and Mali as well) but because of your appearance. Thanks for sharing.

You really like them. The Fulani people are very beautiful!
North african are amazigh berber not arab sister...!!!great reaction.😍
Kindly did you post the result video from 23 & me?
You look straight Fulani!!!
To give context: Some studies say that Fulani people actually originate from North Africa. As a tribe we are originally nomadic, in fact we are still the one of the most nomadic tribes in Africa. Given the population in Senegal and Guinea of our people and them being so close, it’s not a big surprise.Take in account that Fulani people did travel far and were colonized too.
How can you originate from North Africa while it's only a minor portion of your dna (15-25%)? It's like saying afro americans originate from Europe because of their minor european admixture. Fulanis originate from western sahel(Senegal, Mauritania, Mali) and are a mix of Senegambians and North africans(a bit of East Africa too)

You being Fula, I would expect most or half of your DNA to be from the Senegambia region. And if you want to subdivide it even further, I would expect a high percentage of Seereer ancestry in you. The Seereer are the ancestor of the Fula, Toucouleur, Wolof and Lebou. This is why the Fula language is closer to Seereer than any other language. The origin of the Fula is within the Senegambia region where the Seereer are found today. The Berber Moors of Moroco brought Islam into the Senegambia region in the 11th century during the Almoravid era. The Askanazi Jews of Poland might have mingled with the Shafadi Jews of Portal and Spain and the Mizrahi Jews of Nother Africa. The Askanazi strain of the DNA might have survived in you.

Hey cousin...lol...
The Fulani ethnogenesis began in Senegal, as a result of the Moroccan Berber Arabs intermarrying with the black Sub-Saharan Serer, following thenceforth the Fulani expanding across the western Sahel, and the northerly halves of several West African countries. It’s obvious you have a lot of relatives remaining in Senegal, who remained from several generations a go prior branching out throughout the rest of the western Sahel. I wouldn’t think much of it. Mali, Senegal, and Guinea are all right together, as you know or saw on the Ancestry DNA map your Guinean dna is encompassed in the Malian ethnicity estimate. Plus a portion of the Senegalese ethnicity estimate on their map encompasses Guinea Bissau, touching the Guinean border, and if you have Northwestern Fulani kin their dna would definitely be close to Guinea Bissauans.
Many people are confused about the fulani peoples. The fulani themselves are confused were they from specially fulani from Guinea Conakry
My Dad said that I'm Fulani
I highly probable. Like if you agree
Keep in mind, today's borders we have on modern day maps defining borders between nations did not exist before the twenty century.

@@ahata7245 Lol. I'm myself Fulani/Toucouleur and I already took DNA tests that confirmed some theories. Fulani people are clearly a mixed ethnic group whose origins are quite recent historically and genetically. According to geneticist Sarah Tishkoff, Fulani people come originally from Central African areas like Chad before migrating to Western Africa during the antiquity. They are even quite similar genetically to Central African and Western African populations. According to studies conducted by her team, they speculated that Fulanis used to speak an Afro-Asiatic before adopting a Niger-Congo language. They also exhibit some levels of North African, European and Middle Eastern ancestry.
So they're not clearly West Africans.
