Answer the question truthfully.  <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> Here is the Description of a dataset. Description:'The urban peoples of the Swahili coast traded across eastern Africa and the Indian Ocean and were among the first sub-Saharan practitioners of Islam. The extent to which these early interactions between Africans and non-Africans were accompanied by genetic exchange remains unknown. We report ancient DNA data for 80 individuals from six medieval and early modern (1250-1800 CE) coastal towns and an inland town postdating 1650 CE. Many coastal individuals had over half their DNA from primarily female African ancestors, with large proportions and occasionally more than half from Asian ancestors. The Asian ancestry included both Persian and Indian-associated components, with eighty to ninety percent from Persian males. Peoples of African and Asian origins began to mix by about 1000 CE, coinciding with large-scale adoption of Islam. Before ab' .
