So Ancient Egyptians really looked like this?

[Sankofa Alwayz]

Even the lady John henrik Clarke debated admitted they were similar to modern AA’s as far as ligaments

There’s a thread in either HL or the root, brehs in that thread got every tiny bit of info on everything

I think it’s truly emplied tho that they were just an outpost or smaller part of a larger prexisting empire

Correct. Hell, a significant number of the Kemites who had to get the fukk outta dodge after Kemet was going through foreign invasions and being subjected to foreign rule retreated either into Nubia, deeper into East Africa, and a good number of them retreated out into Central and West Africa as well. Some say the descendants of these refugees were among the first wave of Africans to be captured by the European slave traders.

It’s a couple of books on this topic:

It’s another one too but it’s name is escaping me right now

Edit: That other book is Exiled Egyptians: The Heart of Africa

I've never heard someone claim they were Tuareg, Berber, or Bedoun. Arabs don't enter Egypt until Islamic expansion in the 600's and they definately weren't white so how exactly weren't they Africans?

Middle eastern people have been in egypt since the pre-dynastic period breh. It was known as the maadi culture back then. If you research on it, it becomes obvious that there was inflow from people from the levant into lower egypt. They brought crops and cultivation techniques from there.


The african population was concentrated in the south and this is where egyptian culture and civilisation was created so it was an African culture. The maadi culture was not related to the culture in the south before unification. Once they unified upper and lower egypt, there was movement between the regions and interbreeding so it eventually became mixed.

Nikkas gonna call me a c00n but it is what it is.

@Booksnrain said it’s pretty much an open secret too that archeological departments rub lightning oils too and that even Egyptian Arabs know the truth

And it’s funny how literal people are with the black classification. Even the darkest black persons is BROWN. They don’t have to be pitch black midnight for the hieroglyphics to corrrlate

When we brown up in the sun and our hair gets sun bleached red. People think the red is Irish genetics but look at Angolans.. their hair got red tint in it from the sun sometimes

This book goes deep into it. Cant reccomend it enough. Its thoroughly researched and one of the best books I've ever read for exposing anti black racism not just from white people but from asians too.

I didn't say they weren't Africans. I just said they weren't black people nor do I believe they were Berbers. They were just different group of Africans that are extinct today.

My b

you're not wrong, I'm just bringing that up as there are many cases of AA with high European admixture due to people subscribing to the "one drop" rule, so just saying West African kinda trims the fat (being that AAs are descendants of West Africans and Centra West Africans

Berber is an Ethnic identifier not a Race. There are Black Berbers.

I hate how white people always point out Rameses' auburn hair when he and his family were not even of royal stock and completely unrelated to the Thutmosids of the 18th dynasty. His family was a military family.

narmer, the first king of unified Egypt and founder of the First Dynasty

Hor-aha, the second king of Egypt

Hmm...

1) Both of these bust are the same just different angles.
2) The bust is "attrubuted" to Narmer by Petrie, but it's dubious and not supported by any scholar. Bust like these were not common in the early dynastic period at all.
3) The only confirmed image of Narmer is on the Palette of Narmer.

The Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology, London, exhibits a limestone head of an early Egyptian king which the Museum identifies as being a depiction of Narmer on the basis of the similarity (according to Petrie[9]) to the head of Narmer on the Narmer Palette. This has not been generally accepted. According to Trope, Quirke & Lacovara,[10] the suggestion that it is Narmer is "unlikely". Alternatively, they suggest the Fourth Dynasty king Khufu. Stevenson[11] also identifies it as Khufu.

Or they were Africans that weren't Nilotic melanated like the Nubians. Berbers resembled what we call "black" people before the Arabian invasion.
