How much Rh- blood did the original Berbers carry?

I like to go back in history as far as possible to determine whichever ancestries specifically are responsible for high Rh- frequencies.

For example:

It doesn’t interest me as much what blood types the “Cro-Magnons” had as they themselves were hybrids.

Did their presumed Rh+ frequencies come from the Neanderthals?

Who were the “Cro-Magnons”? Simple: humans with more Neanderthal DNA
Does Rh- blood come from Cro-Magnons and what evidence do we have?

For the same reason it is of interest to me to look back at the history of the Berbers:

What did the original Berbers look like? – Part 2
Berber people are the indigenous peoples of North Africa west of the Nile Valley. Historically Berbers have been variously known, for instance as Libyans by the ancient Greeks, as Numidians and Mauri by the Romans, and as Moors by medieval and early modern Europeans.

It is entirely possible that they once had high frequencies of Rh- blood still showing up in more isolated groups while most due to invasions show much lower percentages.

It is also possible that Rh- blood flown in via Jewish migrations.

The Sea Peoples
The highest percentage is found among some of the tribes still living in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco (40%). The next highest are the Basques, reported in different publications as having 25 and 32%, depending on location. The people of northwest Ireland, the Highland Scots and the western islanders of Norway all have between 16 and 25%, while the Lapps of Norway and Finland have between 5 and 7%. In addition, Cavalli-Sforza reports two small isolated populations of the same tribe, one in Chad and another in Senegal, each with about 25%. On his map, he shows an Rh-negative population in Chad, still living near the formerly enormous Chad lake. Only part of this lake still exists on the spot where the boundaries of Chad, Niger, Nigeria and Cameroon meet. These people may originally have been the sailors on Chad lake. Could it be that this is the original location of the Rh-negative population that then moved to Morocco and Algiers to become the Berbers? Or would it be the other way around?

I will continue with this later as new information comes my way…
