So far it looks Eritrea-Tigre and Gurage are tied. Could someone with background of physical anthropology and/or cultural anthropology help?

Semetic is a language term but it's actually a race term it literally means Arab
The same way Dravidian means Indian (Purest Indians of southern India with dark skin)
This definition applies to semetic the purest Semites are dark skin Yemeni and Saudi the Caucasian's from Caucasus Mountians invaded and intermixed deeply with the northern Arab and northern Indians to make them appear semi-white
Now on HOA Semetic languages
The purest semetic language is Tigreyit in Eritrea and maybe Adere(Harari) can compete because Harari have Arab influence
Here is Harari language it sounds like Arabic mixed with Guragegna

Noble Amara,
አረብኛ ንጹህ የሴም ቋንቋ ነው የሚለው ኤቪደንስህ ምንድን ነው ? ሴም ማለት ፀኃይ ማለት ነው ። ቃሉ እራሱ የፀኃይ አምላክ ማለት ነው ። ዛሬ የሴም ቋንቋዎች የሚባሉት ከጥንታዊ የኬሚቲክ ቋንቋ ተወላጆች ናቸው ። ዝብዝቡ ሰፊ ስለሆነ አዚያ መሄድ አልፈልግም እንጂ አረብኛ ትላንት የተወለደ ቋንቋ መሆኑን አትርሳ ።
አረቦች ጥንታዊ የሴም ግንድ እንዳልሆኑ ማስረጃው ከከርስትና ብዙ ሺ አመታት ቀድሞ ፀሃይን ያመለኩት ሕዝቦች ዛሬም ድረስ የብርሃን አምላክ ሲያመልኩ (የጸሃይ ብርሃን) አረቦች ግን የጨረቃ ብርሃን አምላኪዎች ናቸው ። ቀን የሚቆጥሩትም በጸሃይ ሳይሆን በጨረቃ ነው ።
ዛሬ ራሳቸውን ሃረሬ (ሀርሬ የበረሃ/የቆላ ነዋሪ ማለት ነው) ብለው የሚጠሩት ሕዝቦች በአንድ በኩል የአዳል በሌላ በኩል የኦቶማን ኢንፍሉወንስ አለባቸው ። ለምሳሌ አደሬ የሚለው ቃል በስሀተት ይመስለኛ ፣ አደሌ ማለት ነው ። አደሌ የሚባሉት አዳሎች ናቸው ። አዳሎች ሀረርን ለብዙ ዘመን ገዝተዋል ። እኔ የአደሬ ቋንቋ ቃላት ሊስት አለኝ ። በቃላት ደረጃ እስከ 1/3 ከጉራጌኛ ጋራ ተመሳሳይ ነው ። ለምሳሌ ሰርግ ወይም ጋብቻ እነሱ ሸዋል ሲሉ እኛ ሸባል እናለን ወዘተ።

Wondering, there has been Zero response regarding Tigray-Tigre/Tigrawi. Does that mean Tigre'/Tigrawi of Tigray has non Semitic origin? How does this validate against the Tigre/Tigrawi of Eritrea?
Just sharing the global statistics regarding the demographic distribution of Semitics, the Arabs account the largest percentage followed by Amhara in Ethiopia and the Hebrew speaking people of Israel.
This poll seem either Gurage or Eritrea (Tigre(awi) may hint either in the 4th or 5th place. Let's not forget if accurate census carried out Gurage may rank 4th or 5th in terms of population size. I am not sure the size of true Tigre(awi) Eritrea population net of other tribes.
