[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan: [QB] [b]Originally posted by realone: Even Hanihara et. al. (2003) admits that sub-Saharan African populations are biologically distinct from all other populations including Egyptians. [/b] ----------------- Wrong again. Actually Hanihara 2003 shows that Egyptians group first with other AFRICANS including Nubians than with whites or Middle Easterners. And as was pointed out, North East Africans like Ethiopians or Somalis ARE Sub Saharan Africans. [IMG]http://africanamericanculturalcenterpalmcoast.org/historyafrican/haniharadebunk1.jpg[/IMG] No matter how you slice it- the first link for ancient Egyptians is other Africans, including other Egyptians and Nubians. [b][i]As regards the Nubians, two eminent mainstream scholars show that they are the closest ethnically to the Egyptians, a point confirmed by cranial studies:[/b][/i] quote: [i] "Among the foreigners, the Nubians were closest ethnically to the Egyptians. In the late predynastic period (c. 3700-3150 B.C.E.), the Nubians shared the same culture as the Egyptians and even evolved the same pharaonic political structure."[/i] - (F. J. Yurco, 'Were the ancient Egyptians black or white?', Biblical Archaeology Review (Vol 15, no. 5, 1989) Quote: [i] "the XIIth Dynasty (1991-1786 B.C.E.) originated from the Aswan region. As expected, strong Nubian features and dark coloring are seen in their sculpture and relief work. This dynasty ranks as among the greatest, whose fame far outlived its actual tenure on the throne. Especially interesting, it was a member of this dynasty- that decreed that no Nehsy (riverine Nubian of the principality of Kush), except such as came for trade or diplomatic reasons, should pass by the Egyptian fortress at the southern end of the Second Nile Cataract. Why would this royal family of Nubian ancestry ban other Nubians from coming into Egyptian territory? Because the Egyptian rulers of Nubian ancestry had become Egyptians culturally; as pharaohs, they exhibited typical Egyptian attitudes and adopted typical Egyptian policies." [/i] - (F. J. Yurco, 'Were the ancient Egyptians black or white?', Biblical Archaeology Review (Vol 15, no. 5, 1989) [IMG]http://nefertiti.iwebland.com/timelines/topics/pics/nubians.jpg[/IMG] quote: [i]“The ancient Egyptians referred to a region, located south of the third cataract the Nile River, in which Nubians dwelt as Kush.. Within such context, this phrase is not a racial slur. Throughout the history of ancient Egypt there were numerous, well documented instances that celebrate Nubian-Egyptian marriages. A study of these documents, particularly those dated to both the Egyptian New Kingdom (after 1550 B.C.E.) and to Dynasty XXV and early Dynasty XXVI (about 720-640 BCE), reveals that neither spouse nor any of the children of such unions suffered discrimination at the hands of the ancient Egyptians. Indeed such marriages were never an obstacle to social, economic, or political status, provided the individuals concerned conformed to generally accepted Egyptian social standards. Furthermore, at times, certain Nubian practices, such as tattooing for women, and the unisex fashion of wearing earrings, were wholeheartedly embraced by the ancient Egyptians." (Bianchi, 2004: p. 4) 'It is an extremely difficult task to attempt to describe the Nubians during the course of Egypt's New Kingdom, because their presence appears to have virtually evaporated from the archaeological record.. The result has been described as a wholesale Nubian assimilation into Egyptian society. This assimilation was so complete that it masked all Nubian ethnic identities insofar as archaeological remains are concerned beneath the impenetrable veneer of Egypt's material; culture.. In the Kushite Period, when Nubians ruled as Pharaohs in their own right, the material culture of Dynasty XXV (about 750-655 B.C.E.) was decidedly Egyptian in character.. Nubia's entire landscape up to the region of the Third Cataract was dotted with temples indistinguishable in style and decoration from contemporary temples erected in Egypt. The same observation obtains for the smaller number of typically Egyptian tombs in which these elite Nubian princes were interred. (Bianchi, 2004, p. 99-100) [/i] - Robert Bianchi ( 2004). Daily Life of the Nubians. Greenwood Publishing Group [b]As regards modern y-DNA data on Egyptians the closest link is with other Africans not European whites or Middle Easterners: [/b] [IMG]http://www.africanamericanculturalcenterpalmcoast.org/historyafrican/ychromoegypt1.jpg[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
