Right. That would probably be about the time the Egyptians were painting pictures of themselves as BROWN, just like I said, idiot.

Have you not seen the statue of King Tutenkhamen? It's clearly black. Secondly, as i have personally witnessed myself, there are numerous paintings and hieroglyphics depicting Egyptians as black. Of course, it would make perfect sense...being that Egypt and Sudan were often considered one country. In fact, there are more pyramids in the Sudan than there are in Egypt.

Even the history channel depicted "King Tut" as being black in a forensic reconstruction, as well as Ramsees, Queen Nerfertari, etc.

I would suggest that you travel to Egypt and visit the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, but I sincerely doubt you travel the globe. People like you guys provide me with an appreciation of my travels. Small minds are primarily derived from an inability to experience, understand, and relate to the world.

Too bad it's impossible to recoup the fund you paid towards your tuition. Someone got over on you bud.

No, really, they didn't. I just watched a special on mummies two days ago and the reconstruction of Tut had him as brown.

And, so there are "numerous" pictures depicting black egyptians. What you're saying then, is there are even more depicting brown Egyptians and that black was an anomoly and not the norm.

So...are you saying Denzell Washington is brown, not black? Because that was the color of many of ancient Egyptians, including the color of King Tut as portrayed on the History Channel. However, I must stress that Europe has long depicted ancient egyptians as the complexion of Black people. I also refer you to "Splendors of Ancient Egypt" from the Egyptian Museum Cairo.

Now in all fairness I will submit the following facts; towards the decline of the last egyptian dynasty, after the conquest of Alexander the Great, there was a considerable change in skin complexion among the Egyptians. This was due to Alexander's "encouragement" of having his troops sexually mix with the Egyptians, and continued with his general Ptolemy (hence the reference to Egyptians being called Ptolomies). Furthermore, the Romans and Greeks also contributed to the dilution of Egyptian blood. Again, it must be reiterated that this was towards the decline of the final dynastic legacy.

GODAMNIT, you illiterate fuck! How many times(I believe this is the third) must I reiterate that THREE FUCKING DAYS AGO I saw a show on ancient Egypt on the History Channel that showed ALL of the ancient Egyptians as BROWN? Am I speaking English? I know you would prefer Nigglish, but that's just not the accepted language of the country.

tsk...tsk...frustrated idiot on board. Obviously, we are dealing with semantics, and your utter refusal to admit the obvious concerning pigmentation. The person depicted was the color of Denzell Washington of whom Americans describe as BLACK. Answer my question. What is your perception of brown? Either way, the person depicted was a person of color, which was much closer to BLACK than PALE (WHITE). Furthermore, I have witnessed the presence of black egyptians many times, unlike someone who continues to argue from an ignorant perspective on the post (Grizz): Hey, it just dawned on me...why am I arguing with an uneducated prick like yourself?

a) I just read on another board where you consistently referred to Africa as a COUNTRY. Anyone that stupid truly has the knowledge of a rock.

b) I provided reference to a book coming from the Cairo Museum

c) I have been to Egypt, unlike yourself who probably doesn't possess a passport.

Actually, because I am intelligent and capable of speaking more than one language, I actually prefer the arabic language.

On Tut:
I checked out the Tut exhibit in Ft. Lauderdale a short while back and if I had to judge by the data shown in the recreations displayed in the exhibit I'd have to say he was of light brown skin. Weather or not his features were "african" or not is subjective to ones description of african.

On Egypt:
Due to its prime geographic location early Egypt was an epicenter trading point, perhaps leading the world at some point in civilization as well as in commerce. Its status as such brought many different cultures and races together and resulted in the mixed breed of people that we see there today.

On skin color:
Migration, for one thing has been a bitch to the anthropologists. Evidence of pale skinned people have popped up in places where none were previously thought to exist. There are many possible explanations of this. One probable polemic other than migration opined that the rich african kings and periferal royalty had many thousands of slaves, many of whom were white.
Accepted history tells us that masses of merauding sects of africans travelled through parts of europe conquering the unexpecting and selling them as slaves in africa.
So skin color especially in a place like Egypt is going to be a rough road to travel. I have seen plenty of blue eyed light skinned Egyptians.

Your first highlighted line. Just because the y are closer to white then black then by default they are black? I'm sure Hispanics would like to know they are really black.

Second. You have witness black Egyptians? So I have witness black Frenchman. What does that mean. There was a black guy in Egypt. Nobody is doubting that there have been black people in Egypt.

Who are you impressing with your passport and languages. My girl I'm sure has been more places then you/ And she can speak more languages then that. And she is just a little Polish stripper.

She just got back from a Resort in Africa. I don't remember what country right now. But all the people there were brown. Does that that mean Africans are brown?

b.

I think I might have said that once, cheesedick, and it's called a typo, since you can go through the posts in these threads and clearly see where I refer to it as a continent. Nice try, though.
