The Capoid race (named after the Cape of Good Hope) was proposed in 1962 by anthropologist Carleton S. Coon as being a separate race; it had formerly been regarded as a sub-type of the what was then called the Negroid race. [1][2] This new division was proposed because of the very different appearance of those of the Capoid race from others of what was formerly called the Negroid race (golden brown rather than sepia colored skin, peppercorn hair rather than wooly hair, and Epicanthic eye folds).

More recent research in population genetics refers to the corresponding populations as "Khoisanid" and "Black African" and confirms Coon's analysis.

Since the Capoid race was actually a separate race, Coon argued, the term Negroid race should be abandoned, and the people of that race who are not Capoids should be termed the Congoid race [4](This term also has the advantage that it conforms to the way the other races are named, i.e. by the geographic area inhabited by people most typical of that race [in this case, the Congo basin], instead of by their color.).

Location of the Capoid race

The Capoid race is now present primarily in Southern Africa, mainly in Namibia, as the Khoi (Hottentot) and San (Bushmen) peoples, and as part of the ancestry of the more populous Xhosa people and others in the region, though the presence of the Khoisan languages Hadza and Sandawe farther north, and possibly fossil evidence, suggest a Capoid presence in East Africa today. Archaelogical evidence indicates that the Capoids formerly dominated in Central Africa, but were later pushed back and absorbed by the Congoid Bantu expansion in the 1st millennium BC, due to the possession by the Bantus of superior iron weapons, which easily overcame the stone weapons of the Capoids.

Classification of the Capoid race

The term Capoid implies a judgment that they are sufficiently distinct from those who were formerly termed Negroids (now termed Black Africans) to warrant dividing the Black African race into two separate races, the Capoid and the Congoid. This judgment was originally made on the basis of visible physical features, but more recently genetic studies have shown the Khoisan to be distinct from all other peoples in some genetic markers; there is also a high level of diversity between different Khoisan groups, indicating that other Black Africans separated from the Khoisan a very long time ago, 30,000 years ago at the very least. [5]

Capoid race identified with first non-African Homo Sapiens Recently, it has been suggested that the first anatomically modern homo sapiens to migrate out of Africa and give rise to modern humans in the rest of the world were similar to the Khoisan. While some genetic markers shared between Khoisan, Ethiopians and non-Africans can be interpreted as supporting this hypothesis; however, some regard it as anachronistic to identify a modern race with one alive tens of thousands of years ago.


Poster Comment:

The Capoids were the original inhabitants of Africa. They are not black. They probably would have been wiped out by jigaboos except the white man saved them. Blacks have zero ancestral rights to southern Africa and indeed most of Africa.

There certainly seem to be several major sub-types of Africans. The attempt to lump them all as African or Negroid is a result of white racism and of blacks trying to build political solidarity, particularly in the States.

It does seem clear enough, even with the diluted genetics of American blacks, that there are at least two, maybe as many as four different types of "Africans", some of them not on the African continent that long.

Genetics and archaeology are always interesting.

It's not racism if the differences don't matter. ;)
