They're talking about Africans in the Americas to such an extent that they 'influenced' Native American civilizations.

It's hilarious because Afrocentricts gravitate away from anything associated with 'White' scholarship......except for this ONE scholar......and ignore EVERYTHING else showing it to be untenable.

Stealing another group's heritage just to make yourself look more important than you really are is what we constantly accuse 'White' people of doing. Yet, when WE do it, it's just 'setting the record straight'??????​
You're suspect as fukk.

You deny the possible chance Egyptians were brown."symbolic".
You passive aggressive shyt on Africans in this thread.

You're absolutely wrong. The post I made previously shows the closest depictions of what I think ancient Egyptians looked like. As I stated, some were of Sub-Saharan ancestry, probably Ethiopia and Nubia initially, but the majority were from the Middle East, as far as Assyria according to current science, due to being along trade routes. There's also the issue of ancient Egypt not having a standing military which left it open to every surrounding civilization unless engaging them in war.

In short, Egypt was an African civilization that was metropolitan by circumstance and location. The majority population, then, was pretty much the same as now.​

Love how you avoided my post.lol

What proof do you have they were ‘majority Middle Eastern’. This was probably the case in northern Egypt but the south ? I really hope you ain’t basing all this on that 2017 study which tested 3 random mummies that lived mostly during the Roman era lol. If that’s the case I should be able to use Ramses III dna to say all of Egypt were west/Central African people lol.

Unless you built a time machine and travelled to ancient Egypt, no one can say with certainty what the demographics was. The average ancient Egyptian was more than likely a mixture of black African (Nubian) and middle eastern dna which is why they generally depicted themselves lighter than the Nubians, but darker than the berbers/middle easterners.

Lol. I’ve always agreed Egypt was mixed but it’s weird how so many non-blacks like this @Dafunkdoc_Unlimited dude is obsessed with trying to paint it as some purely Near Eastern civilisation with minimal African input lol.

They Egyptians weren’t even Semitic speakers like all middle easterns sans the Sumerians but that was apparently their origin right lol.

1. No one avoided anything.

2. DNA, archaeology, ancient documentation and science....

Ok? What exactly is this supposed to prove? we already know there was inflow of people into north Africa from the middle east. That does not mean African populations were not also in north Africa. The problem is you look at things from a racial lens and try to apply it to ancient peoples. There was no race in Egypt, only nationalism.

And how are you explaining the skeletal remains at jebel sahaba being matching with other black africans which if north africa was devoid of black africans ?

I went to the Egyptian museum on Friday

Egyptians were black brehs

If you go to the museum, that's the only conclusion you can reach. I remember going to the Louvres in Paris and looking at those pic and I asked myself why there is o much debate, that shyt is clear.

But I'm no specialist, so I won't say anything.

The simple idea of black people having built something make some people EXTREMELY uncomfortable.

I am not saying that Egyptian were black. I'm not knowledgeable enough on the subject. But what I do know is that a lot of people hate that idea for reason who have nothing to do with the truth. Even if it was proven tomorrow that Egytion were black they will still deny it.

The same people tried to claim that the stones contrsuctions of Zimbabwe were not built by black people.

I've maintained that North African populations have been relatively consistent for thousands of years and genetically distinct from Sub-Saharan African populations. The primary residents of the region are indigenous and come from the Middle East.

Your problem is in using the term 'Black' to describe their appearance.

I never once stated that darker-skinned Sub-Saharan Africans weren't part of the population and were probably the initiators of the region, so there's nothing further to explain.​
