Someone told me marehan are mixed maternally with Turks and hejazi Arabs and European ive seen marehan who have a European maternal haplogroupespecially some of the sub clans of the Darood like the ismaili jeberti, im 99% sure they came from the town of Zula.Only darood are from Eritrea especially the akulegezey/seminar regions the rest of Somalis are Oromo Bantu originsI said it here many years ago, Many of the somali Qabil are originally From Eritrea. Especially that Akulegezay/Semhar region. Somali tend to forget that Punt capital was there " Qohoito " stretching all the way southward, Eritrea anciently was an Afar land before the migration waves of the Belew ( Beja ), Nilotic tribes like Kunama and Nara and most recently the Arab rashaida. In fact i also said somali were originally from Eritrea who Migrated southward around the Time of the D'mt Kingdom ( which was before the Axumite Era )
