Hamitic
Wouldn't it be good if the term Hamitic were included and discussed in this article? 173.88.241.33 (talk) 01:12, 29 June 2019 (UTC)

The term Hamatic is no longer used for describing Afro-Asiatic language-speaking Africans in modern linguistics or anthropology. It was a controversial and pseudo-scientific term term coined during the Era of Scientific Racisms that has been debunked. "Afro-Asiatic language-speaking Africans" or another similar phrase or term is the more correct way to describe these various people g. HistoryEtCulture (talk) 18:06, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Merge from List of ethnic groups in Ethiopia and merge to People of Ethiopia
Merge from List of ethnic groups in Ethiopia and merge to People of Ethiopia, because the List of ethnic groups in Ethiopia article is redundant, makes it hard to link to both interconnected (or the same) topics at the same time. Plus, the "Officially recognized ethnic groups in Ethiopia" of the List of ethnic groups in Ethiopia article (its only section) is already include in the People of Ethiopia but has some formatting errors.

White ethiopian?
The presence of white people in Ethiopia is attested at least since the Vth century BC. Why are they not mentioned in this article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A03F:6B8E:EE00:5124:1B71:F5F8:73C0 (talk) 13:32, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

People of Ethiopia → Ethiopians – The demonym Ethiopian is more common and practical than the artificial, longer, and rarely used phrase "people of Ethiopia. This would also match with similar articles like Eritreans and Djiboutians. RiverNile1 (talk) 19:08, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Ethiopian genetics (including other HOA populations)
This 2019 study may be relevant for the genetic section and interested people:[]

Abstract:



Another 2020 paper suggests that the Eurasian admixture is considerable lower than previous papers suggested, estimating only 15-20% Eurasian admixture on average. Source: []

Statistics, and archiving the old nationalist junk on here.
Not even sure if anyone maintains this page regularly to care much, but old discussions on this talk page really need to be archived as it's filled with nationalist junk that either ignores the point or just cries about something unnecessary / insults everyone, and most of these date back to as far as 2006.

Secondly, the statistics on the population of Ethiopians outside Ethiopia are much lower than what's true, I've begun trying to fix some of these. However, it'll take a while. ballads one 23:19, 22 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Edit regarding the former, It's been fixed. ballads one 23:28, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

Thats how to do it.

Prehistory
"It was thought that Hamitic people from Asia Minor had migrated before Semitic Arabian people in the 7th century BC.[19]"

Would that Hamitic migration from Asia Minor before the Semitic Arabian people in the Middle Ages, coincide with the Bantu Expansion? 2001:1C00:1E20:D900:D108:E292:4ECE:682B (talk) 00:17, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Hamitic hypothesis Debunked
Eurocentrics would rather	claim	a major	Levant	contribution	to	the	North-East African	gene	pool. This is	 contradictory	also	to	published	literature	on	female	expansion/migrations	studied	in	published data	and	data	from	Sudan	that shows	the	female	gene	pool to	be	the	outcome	of	in	situ	evolution (Osman	et	al.,	2021)	where	some	of	the	so	called	out	of	Africa	haplotypes	are	found	to	be	present	in	substantial	frequencies	in	samples	from	populations	not	known	to	have	left	the	continent and	that	display	fixation	of	genetic	markers	of	continuous	population	history	in	the	continent	(Albasheer etal.,2020),	in	addition	of	course	to	historical	and archeological	evidence. Such	dearth	of	analysis	of	native	mtDNA	might	explain	misnamed	and	faulty	classifications	of	human	uniparental	haplogroup	assignments	and	hence	the	ensuing	faults	around	dates	and	patterns	of	migration. Unfortunately migration	patterns	are	still	based	on	historical	accepted	narratives	and	lack	substantiated	solid proof H3r3cookiecookie38 (talk) 06:53, 11 July 2024 (UTC) (Blocked sock)


 * The data you are continuously attempting to remove is not outdated, and scientists are still releasing papers on African human populations with the aforementioned migration models. Furthermore, you're not only disrupting this article, but you have been shown to clear and edit sourced information from others as well, using your accounts:, , Special:Contributions/H3r3cookiecookie38 & Special:Contributions/ZipthatChop. Stop clearing references that you simply do not like, articles are meant to show diversity and accuracy in viewpoints of what is being cited, so please cease Edit warring on multiple pages. Further Than Beyond (talk) 07:18, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Again, instead of using another of your disruptive accounts Special:Contributions/2600:1017:A005:7DCE:349E:FC3F:2945:B633 to remove studies and data, and insert unrelated ones as you did with Osman et al. (2021) https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214540020301924, which clearly says: "2. Materials and methods, 2.1. Samples and mitochondrial control regions sequencing, A total of 164 mitochondrial DNA samples from maternally unrelated individuals sampled by Hassan et al. (Hassan et al. 2008), belonging to twelve different ethnic groups in Sudan and South Sudan (for details see Table 4 and Fig. S1) were amplified." & "In conclusion, our data shows remarkable feature of genetic diversity among the Sudanese population consistent with the antiquity and in-situ evolution of the mitochondrial DNA gene pool, and relating some of the populations to groups displaying the most ancestral lineages of maternal lines. The mitochondrial HVRI remains surrogate of whole mitochondrial genome information and may be utilized for rapid screening of populations of interest. Based on HVRI sequence, and in addition to affirming north-eastern Africa as a prime scene in early evolution of modern humans, variation in this gene pool seems to have been influenced to lesser extent by migrations than by in-situ evolution." It's not on characterizing Ethiopia, but you are free to place it summarized accurately in another relevant article on Sudanese. Further Than Beyond (talk) 06:43, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 2021. Study. You talk about diversity. Africa is the most diverse continent please. Your bias is showing. Ethiopians are Africans and will be forever.
 * “The position of L3/M and N haplogroups in different sub-clades may suggest this macrohaplogroup have originated in east Africa prior to the migration of the first Homo sapiens to Asia. The L3/M/N conventionally associated with the mitochondrial out-of-Africa scenario is widely distributed in Sudanese groups unknown of having history of migration or admixture with Asian or European groups, consistent with our suggestion that the major mitochondrial haplotype differentiation occurred well prior to the exodus event (Elhassan et al., 2014), then propagating the N carriers through migration and drift. For example the presence of Haplogroups RO in populations like Beja, Arabs Nubians and Masalit, could hardly be taken as a result of migration from Asia to East Africa as suggested by similar presence in the Arabian peninsula (Abu-Amero et al., 2008; Gandini et al., 2016), given the cultural, genetic ethnic and demographic background of these groups. Some authors argue that this haplogroup, as well as other Eurasian haplogroups including U3 and TI among Beja, may have been brought to Sudan by two routes one from North Africa, and the other through the present Ethiopia and Eritrea (Kivisild et al., 2004; Krings et al., 1999). On the other hand, an African origin of these macro haplogroups has been argued for in the literature” (Quintana-Murci et al., 1999). ScholarMate1 (talk) 15:33, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You are once again being a disruptive editor, and have already been caught engaging in Sockpuppetry. You're clearly not here to build an open encyclopedia, which presents quality and accurate information, with considerations to multiple viewpoints. You're wanting a biased narrative, hence repeatedly removing peer reviewed and scientific content you do not like the conclusions of, which is in bad faith. This issue has been addressed, please only add relevant information on the article's subject, and do not clear all those cited sources that are more than appropriate for the sub-section.

Very outdated and clear bias

 * None of the information referenced is outdated nor biased as already discussed above, and you have not added any new 2023 study, just the same edits from your other accounts: Special:Contributions/H3r3cookiecookie38 & Special:Contributions/ZipthatChop. Further Than Beyond (talk) 15:34, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Post your paper debunking me. ScholarMate1 (talk) 16:18, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Sir, all you did was repost the above study on this article from your first post on your older accounts, while also deleting references that were unrelated, and dealing with the other genetic findings that were on the article. This has no relation to the removed DNA findings, and migration models and analysis used in those you selectively cleared, being in a completely different section too. Also, this is not relevant to the article which was established above, but is welcome to be placed in another one dealing with the populations from that region.
