We used geometric morphometrics to understand the past migration processes in the Sahel/Savannah belt of sub-Saharan Africa. We analyzed the facial features of three groups of pastoralists and three groups of farmers belonging to three language families (Niger-Congo, Nilo-Saharan, and Afro-Asiatic) and combined these data with mitochondrial DNA sequences previously obtained. We observed that pastoralists differ from farmers by many features but individuals who bear maternally inherited haplotypes of Eurasian haplotypes do not differ from those whose maternal ancestry is sub-Saharan. Our results suggest that gene flows across the area did not erase a structure established by Paleolithic populations and further shaped by the spread of the Neolithic subsistence strategies.
