My family comes from mooroco in North Africa. They are descended from the Arabs who came out of the Arabian peninsula in the 6th century.

Im almost certainly have some Berber in me(Natives of North Africa)

I have no idea what arab tribe my family comes from but is there anyway to find out for a person whos family comes from mooroco?

....(continuing asker comment)... Tunisia was populated by Lebanese and Syrians (when they made Carthage as Phoenicians) so your Arab Blood could be my Arab blood Report It
