There's a possibility that hunter-gather African populations possess "archaic African" admixture; the only other African groups to possess such "admixture" are Bantu groups with hunter-gather admixture, like the Xhosa.

Horners appear to have hunter-gatherer admixture, based on their uniparental markers and autosomal affinities. So they have at least two sources of archaic admixture, presumably. The archaic African hominins that mixed with African sapiens hunter-gatherers, as well as the Neanderthals that mixed with the first Eurasians.
