Quote:
Lebanese natives' genetic makeup is the most diverse of all four Arab nationalities.
Typically, a Lebanese natives is 44 percent Arabian, 14 percent Jewish diaspora, 11 percent North African, 10% from Asia minor, 5 percent Southern European and 2 percent Eastern African.
Ancient migrants passed through the Middle East when journeying from Africa to Eurasia. Some of these migrants settled in Lebanon, developing genetic patterns that transcended generations over time.
The Silk Road added genetic patterns from the farther north and east.
