Source: Extracts from Report on the Islands and Antiquities of Bahrein (Cambridge University Press) 1880 A.D. Note: Page 192 of the source. This source confirms that the Phoenicians were originally located on the horn of Africa and/or southern Arabia.

This source confirms that African Negro crania samples can be grouped into "Afro-Mediterranean" and "Caucasoid" crania groupings and vice versa. This is why we approach the black presence in the ancient Mediterranean Basin from a multi-disciplinary approach because no piece of evidence or approach stands alone.
