YDNA R1b-V88 is thought to have crossed from North Africa to Spain during the Neolithic.I am still surprised they have never run tests on the recovered Mesolithic Kiffians or Neolithic Tenerians.
I have a feeling the latter would support European farmer introgression into the Green Sahara.
These theory is not Bible words. The most ancient R1b-V88 were living in Europe from West to Ukraina and the clades ancestors to the African clades were present in Europe. The moves could have been as well North-South as South-North through central mediterranean Isles and the Sahel and Co R1b-V88 presence don't require a Near-East/Levant passage in East-Africa.YDNA R1b-V88 is thought to have crossed from North Africa to Spain during the Neolithic.

Regardless if updated or not, Maciamo has spoken of intercrossings between North Africa and Spain.These theory is not Bible words.

This is almost certainly not what happened. I believe Marcus et. al. 2018 tracked the arrival of some African nested haplogroups into Sardinia, but all the data supports R-V88 being a European Mesolithic haplogroup. It also likely did not enter Africa from the Levant, it is more likely that it entered through Spain and Italy during the Neolithic. The timing is additionally supported by the high amount of LBK-like admixture in Toubou speaking peoples in Chad.YDNA R1b-V88 is thought to have crossed from North Africa to Spain during the Neolithic.
