"Among the Jewish communities sampled, North Africans (Moroccans, etc.) were
most closely related to Babylonian (Iraqi) Jews. These populations may best
represent the paternal gene pool of the ancient Jewish/Hebrew population
dating back to the First Temple period, before the Babylonian exile (approx.
2,500 years ago)."

"Historical Introduction
"Over 2,700 years ago, the Assyrians exiled the ten tribes of the Kingdom of
Israel. "In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria
and he carried them away to Assyria and placed them in Halah, and on the
Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of Medes." In the years 722-721
BC (over 2700 years ago), the Ten Tribes who comprised the northern Kingdom
of Israel disappeared. Conquered by the Assyrian King Shalmaneser V, they
were exiled to upper Mesopotamia and Medes, today modern Syria and Iraq. The
Ten Tribes of Israel have never been seen since. Or have they?
"Tudor Parfitt, the protagonist of the NOVA documentary "Lost Tribes of
Israel," made a journey through southern Africa to study the unusual
traditions of a black African tribe called the Lemba. This Bantu-speaking
group claimed Jewish ancestry and observed many Semitic traditions such as
kosher-like dietary restrictions and slaughter practices, male circumcision
rites, strict rules against intermarriage, and Semitic-sounding clan names." |
