Hmm, not sure the nature of the question regarding Cushitics or Nilotics? I was more trying to illustrate that Haplogroup K(xLT) is upstream of O, so round eyed Oceanic people, like Aboriginese and Pacific Islanders, are closer to traditional mongoloid haplogroup O, than San are... closer geographically too.

I tend to think the similar eye features are concurrent evolution, like blondeness in Europeans and Pacific Islanders.

I was making reference to this statement i found from the link for example below.

The CF(xDE) haplogroup was the common ancestor of all people who migrated outside of Africa until recent times. The defining mutation occurred 31-55,000 years bp in North East Africa and is still most common in Africa today in Ethiopia and Sudan

I know your reasons for the San, and i understand it. However i wanted to ask about what i read from the link in reference to east Africans particularly, in other words which group in Ethiopia and Sudan display the Haplogroup CF(xDE) today. I am just curious?

P.S.

I know my question is outside the subject matter that being discussed here, so i don't want to hijack this thread, therefore keep the answer simple or clear or just provide the link to answer my inquiry.

Thanks
