Even if the 8 markers do not prove the connection, it is still possible that
such connection exists.

Which routes did they (probably) use?

Which two subroups? They correspond to the routs, don't they?

The 67 marker data would be VERY informative, but it is not that easy to
conduct any research in East Africa nowdays...
