Abstract
Genetic studies in Azores show that modern population is composed of both a northern and southern Europe people. However, a significant Chinese input of HLA characteristic genes has occurred. In addition, carthaginian coins were found in Corvo Is (Azores). This is contradictory to the official version that pre-Portuguese Azores had been virgin and inhabited. Cart–ruts in Azores indicate a (Atlantic) common culture with Canary Is and Mediterranean. On the other hand, genetic studies on Canarians show that they present european, iberian and berber characteristics. A prehistoric lunisolar megalithic calendar: Quesera of Zonzamas, pyramids similar to those found in nearby Western Sahara (90km far). Also, latin or ibero guanche rock scripts which can be transcripted with iberian-tartessian signary, but not with Latin, and also found at Tim Missaw cave (Sahara, Algeria), populated Sahara area dissection after 5000 years BC and subsequent people migration could be the origin of Canary Is, Sahara and other Mediterranean culture traits. Thus, we have defined the Saharo-Canarian Circle as a genetic, anthropologica and prehistoric culture radiatin; it might have given reise to the Iberian. Tartessian signary and to other ancent lineal mediterranean scripts.
