I know from ancient time that oromo people had a relation with the indians, and their culture looks unlike so I can certainly say the oromo people have indian (that are from asia)mix in their blood. With the fact that they are cushitic, language and slung similarity, and culture as well. And the habeshas (Tgri and Amhara) group we have mixture with some arabs especially the bedwins and slightly with the israellies. And Somalians are mix with the indians and arabs together, since they are cushitic. So my point is one way or another they r mix but still African. It is ok to look different it's not their fault.

somalis on average have 15% admixture.. the features that look more "caucasoid" are generally caused by adaptation.. dark skin is because of constant UV ray exposure because of life in a desert.
Semitic habeshas on the other hand have generally 50-60% admix.. depending on if you are amhara or tigray along with the fact that the people were origionally from Central/southern arabia and migrated around 1000 bc.. with smaller migrations after that.. oromos have on average less admixture.. maybe 10-15%.. light skin for some of them is because of life in the mountains
Speak intellectually there is no such thing as concrete fact, this is mere guess. both Ethiopians and Somalis are mixed and at what percent? nothing is known, let me tell you some thing even we semitic speakers are hamites or dominantly hamites though we speak semitic the best language in the world.

Dude.....u really r ignorant and over self centered. You can't say that ur language is the best language and u r the best. U can say what you want to say if it does make u feel better, but I guess what u believe is not even close to be true. And BTW what made u say ur language is the best? Dis is the funniest s*** I have heard for the day. The world is getting civilized and countries like yours stay the same, with u and people like you, and filled with narrow minded people that don't do nothing, u better enlighten your self. AND U R ONE OF THE MOST IGNORANT PERSON OK..........

Hi beautiful, you have a nice name, don't feel undermined for not being Amharic speaker, still you have your language to speak with, use it. Do not tell me I am an ignorant person, I know that there are lots of things that I do not know. But on the subject I tried to explain, I know that it is true. You gave the name beautiful for your self please make your heart like your name.

Somalis and ethiopian are not mixed, we look different to other african because we don't originate from Bantu stock. a Bantu person and Nilote don't look like nor does a Bantu look like a San person. there are many variation of looks and types in Africa.

Somalis and ethiopian are mostly Cushtics stock, even the Amhara and tigraya developed from the Agaw. the Agaw were the majority in the northwest as late as 800 years ago. the amount of foreign blood in the the region is significant in ethiopia Sabean and later Arabs migrated and established kingdoms in ethiopia. while in Somalia the arab tend to settle on the coast. a string of city states from Zayla to Mugadisho while in the interior the vast majority remain indigenous. take for example the oromo amoung others who never came across any asians until the modern time.

this is stupid . i don't understand why some people refuse to believe that not everybody in Africa look the same .scientific have said that we African have the biggest diversity in the world and that what make us beautiful because we don't look the same .i mean just because Somalis,Ethiopians or other country of the horn don't look like Senegalese ,Ghaneen or other countries of Africa mean that they are not African,just look at the French,Spanish,German and other countries of Europe ,they don't look the same but i don't see people telling one of them that they are not Europeen because they don't look like the other ,so why it cannot be same for the people of Africa also ?
