The 25th Dynasty Of Egypt

[Misreeya]

Agreed. But weren't the 12th dynasty a different "Nubian" ethnic group? The 25th dynasty was of Kushyte descent, I could have sworn the 12th dynasty was another entity.

Actually according to amenemhet I, he stated from the prophecy of Neferti that he was of "ta seti" origin, which legitimatize his rule.

I posted the website. His quote

Then a king will come from the South,
Ameny, the justified, my name,
Son of a woman of Ta-Seti, child of Upper Egypt,
He will take the white crown,
he willjoin the Two Mighty Ones (the two crowns)



Asiatics will fall to his sword,
Libyans will fall to his flame,
Rebels to his wrath, traitors to his might,
As the serpent on his brow subdues the rebels for him,
One will build the Walls-of-the-Ruler,
To bar Asiatics from entering Egypt

I reckon this line represent or denote some kind of importance, and every pharoanic ruler tried to draw llegitimacy as being descendant of that group

Anyways I find it ironic that Eurocentrics try to downplay the 25th dynasty as "lowly blacks who got lucky" compared to other foreign dynasties like the Ptolemaic dynasty, who Eurocentrics love to put on a pedestal. Its ironic, because unlike the Ptolemaic dynasty, it can be argued that the natives of Ancient Egypt didn't even see the Kushytes as "invaders", but a group of people restoring Egypt.

Lets take a look at some of the 25th dynasty feats:

1. Entered Ancient Egypt back into a Renaissance prior to being in a bleak state.
2. Restored ancient traditions/religion.
3. The natives welcomed them.
4. Fought off the Assyrians.
5. Stopped the Assyrians from destroying Jerusalem. Commonly accepted by scholars/historians that King Taharqa basically saved modern religion.
6. King Taharqa is mentioned positively in the bible(which kinda contradicts the Egyptian pharaohs being evil now does it?)
7. At its peak the Kushyte Empire stretched to southern Levant/Canaan.

Those are just SOME feats. More than the Ptolemaic dynasty ever did besides oppressing the natives and selling Egypt out to the Romans. Yet Eurocentrics(and Afrocentrics via Cleopatra) obsess over the Ptolemaic dynasty. They and the Libyan dynasty didn't do jack for Egypt unlike the "black" Kushyte dynasty. Yet you'll never hear National Geographic admit that.

Ta-Seti makes sense. IIRC the ancestors of Ancient Egyptians themselves come from there. Plus their deities like Horus/Heru. Hell most "Egyptian" deities are in fact come from the area of Nubia. That's how interconnected the two groups are.

Nothing in this comment is true. We're having a discussion on how the caste system isn't color based in this thread:

Check it out. There's no proof of any African priests founding the indus valley civilization. Let's let African civilization remain African and Indian civilization remain Indian.

Yeah I apologize if it looked like I was insinuating something like that, I should have just did the last paragraph. I don't know Indian history in depth like that, just little things here and there like the Aryan invasion being a lie and other stuff. I'll check it out.
