The Samaritans are the guardians of a unique and very ancient religious literature which together with other historical accounts makes their claim of such a length of existence probable.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Comparison of blood group frequencies as well as other genetic markers (such as PTC sensitivity, color blindness and G6PD deficiency) indicate that the Samaritans are unlike any of the existing surrounding groups whom they might be expected to resemble. From comparison of anthropometric data the Samaritans appear to exhibit their own \u201ctypical\u201d features which do not resemble those of any other Jewish or non\u2010Jewish community in the Middle East. These differences support the contention that the Samaritans' separation and isolation from the communities is not a recent event. The possibility that the Samaritans today can be regarded as modern representatives of the ancient Hebrews and the living offspring of a particular branch of the Israelite kingdom is discussed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330240202","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,8,8]],"date-time":"2005-08-08T19:32:55Z","timestamp":1123529575000},"page":"135-145","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Are there Hebrews left?"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Batsheva","family":"Bonne","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/1450881"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","unstructured":"Ben Zevi I.1935Sefer Hashomronim (in Hebrew).
