The Lemba tribe of South Africa are a Bantu speaking black African people who claim to have Jewish ancestry. They have many Semitic traditions such as circumcising their sons and kosher-like dietary restrictions. Turns out, DNA evidence from tribe members show that these traditions were brought there from the Middle East thousands of years ago. Many members of the Lemba tribe truly do share DNA with Jews and hold a particular Y chromosomal type that appears to be a signature of Jewish ancestry. 🇿🇼 The Lemba consider themselves Jewish by culture and DNA, but not religion. Most are Christians and speak local South African languages native to Zimbabwe and surrounding regions where Lemba clans live. 🇮🇱 “We tried to tell everyone about us, but people wouldn’t believe it. But now that hard science has proved it, we are now happy that what we have been telling them has come to be the truth,” said Hamandishe, a member of Zimbabwe’s parliament who has visited Israel. 🇿🇼 The Lemba are the only tribe who claim to have Israelite origins who’ve actually got any genetic proof. There is very strong DNA evidence that they came from the eastern Mediterranean. 🇮🇱 Sources: PBS “The Lemba, The Black Jews of Southern Africa” & Haaretz.com “Unlike Many ‘Lost Tribes,’ Zimbabwe Clan Has Science on Its Side” 🇿🇼
