Actually, the Ptolemaic theory of Cleopatra being fuflly Greek is false, an analysis of her sisters DNA is now believed to place her as half Greek (father) and half Sub-Saharan African aka Black (mother)

The first humans settled around the nile in 10,000 BC. The Ancient Egyptians formed the first Pre-Dynastic period in 5000 BC, the same time Imhotep built the step pyramid. Now use logic, the Hyksos invaded in 1800 BC. They only controlled the region for 300 years, not alot of time. Now think, the only other invaders around that time were the Kushytes. So tell me, how can AE be Arab when most of it's history predates the first Arab invader?
Damn...I never read about those studies either. I guess the American media didn't think it was important.
White people man. It's like they're really, truly surprised that more information is coming out that proves that a civilization that was in Africa was actually African. Who would have guessed?
Cleopatra probably looked mulatto. African mother, Greek father. That broad was mulatto looking, golden yellow skintone.
Most of that dudes descendants are walking around Central and South Africa today. They don't look like that dude. You go on YouTube right now, click on any video about Ancient Egypt and read some white person's comments. It's sad. I don't even call them racists anymore. It's just down right pathetic
They can't swallow the fact that people they would call Blacks today had a large hand in building the pillars of civilization. That hatred has them doing all sorts of futile studies (that will only end in
) to prove that a civilization that's in Africa was somehow not African. Where's common sense in that?
If Egyptians came from Arabs, how come most reports say that Arabs didn't come in in large numbers until 649AD? If Egyptians came from Arabs, how come there's a litter of pyramids in Kush and Nubia that are dated before the pyramids in Egypt
and these earlier pyramids look primitive in comparison to the ones that came later in Egypt but, obviously got progressively better until they perfected the craft....like a child learning how to stack lego blocks the right way. If Egyptians came from Arabs, how come the paintings and murals in Egypt have black and brown faces. I've never seen not one Arabian mural with black and brown faces. I've never even heard of one Arabian culture burying themselves in pyramids. If Egyptians came from Arabian, shouldn't some remnants of Egyptian culture be rooted in Arabia since it would be the mother culture?
Like how there's pyramids in the areas of Nubia & Kush? I guess those Arabs just came over to Egypt and switched their entire style up

Just had to dap this post for dropping that actual factual. Not only was the Mali empire running the gold trade, they was running the salt trade too.
Matter fact Timbuktu was known as the modern city of El Dorado. Mansa Musa, emporer of the Mali empire had swag for days too
My G gave away so much gold on his pilgrimage to Mecca, it crushed the buildings like it was never crushed before. He gave away about 200 million dollars worth of gold on one trip, and plumetted the price of gold in the cities he was visiting. The gold traders were pissed as fukk, and he just hit em with
and kept it moving.
He wasn't fukking with Sonni Ali though....dude had goons on top of goons
These dudes look trill as fukk. I never heard about them either. I only knew about the Mali, Ghana and Songhai empires but, I never really explored into the rulers and kings. We got enough history to make a Game of Thrones or a Spartacus
