[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jari-Ankhamun: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [qb] You might be suprised how many Lower and Upper Egyptians see the Nubians to be the best representation of the ancient Egyptians. The indigenouness of the Cairene Egyptians ultimately depends which part of Egypt they come from. Even if an Egyptian hails from a particular part of Egypt does not make them immune from foreign ancestry. However, the Egyptians from rural areas in Middle and Upper Egypt tend to have less foreign ancestry. I personally have found little data supporting that either Mameluke/Turkish ancestry had much effect on the modern Egyptian population. From what I have read it appears the pre-Islamic foreign element is what lead to the admixture in modern Egyptians. Let me clarify also that its not an Afrocentric notion to say that the modern Cairene and Delta Egyptians are foreign. Many early Egyptologist felt this way and often wrote about it in their writings. Most believed this to be fact. It would not suprise me if there are villages in the Delta filled with people that desend from Egyptianized foreigners. It was even the case back in pharoanic times because much of the southern Egyptians could not understand the dialect of the Delta Egyptians. What are we to make of the presence of reykt birds binded. Diop believed these people to be foreigners. Sorry if I rambled on. As an Egyptian I felt like I should say something. [/qb][/QUOTE]Oh, No Ausar your input is much appreciated, and we all know that this is very true. What is said is people who want to TELL YOU and YOUR PEOPLE like the Egyptians in that clip that your culture is not African and if you claim so you are Afrocentric. It is of course mindless ignorant swine that would do so and still try to push the European spin on African Egyptian history. [/QB][/QUOTE]
