It's just a shame that Limodio miscoded the treatment period to include the month before Ramadhan rather than the month after. The result disappears when the period described in the text is used. The curse of the slop five strikes again.

@_alice_evans it is become more apparent that large parts of Latin American was largely settled by losing side of Reconquista/Conquest
During the reconquista, the southern parts of Iberia were largely repopulated by incoming Northern Iberians, which resulted in modern Southern Iberians having *less* North African ancestry and more IA Iberian ancestry than pre-Islamic Roman-era Southern Iberians
