North African ancestry in Spain and Portugal can be traced back to the Roman empire rather than the Islamic conquest Late antiquity to late medieval period Iberians had significantly more north African admixture than they do today Islamic Iberians don’t seem to differ genetically from those that lived there during the Roman and Visigoth period Modern Iberians are genetically much more homogenous than their forefathers were due to the policies of resettlement during the Reconquista Although more anecdotical, the Goths, Vandals, Suebians, Alans and such didn’t leave a significant trace in Iberia tldr nafri ancestry in Iberia is due to north african slaves being imported during the roman era
