[QUOTE]Originally posted by Akachi: [QB] The Depictions of the ancient Egyptians that famed Egyptologist Frank Yurco deliberately misinterpreted in his book as representing Nubians when the Egyptian text (the crouching pharaoh) indicates that this was in fact the representation of the ancient Egyptian type: [IMG]http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/7354/ampinrmtnhsywqt4.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://abagond.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/hornungdistortiongz4.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://manuampim.com/Images/4Rmt.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/3825/denkmaelerpl48rameseskv.jpg[/IMG] In all of these depictions these black Africans typically labled by silly people as the "true negro" (as Diop pointed out) depicted as the general representation of ancient Egypt. Here is a first hand account how dishonest and stubborn he was about the race and appearance of the ancient Egyptians. Even when confronted about his dishonesty his silliness would not yield. [i] ‘In 1998, after reading Yurco’s “Two Tomb-Wall Painted Reliefs of Rameses III and Sety I and Ancient Nile Valley Population Diversity” in which he proclaimed that the “four races of man” pastiche used by many African-centred writers to demonstrate that the ancient Egyptians viewed themselves as a black people, is based on a nineteenth century copy that is incorrect, I informed Yurco that not only had I been in the tomb of Ramesses III but that I personally photographed the wall painting. He seemed somewhat surprised at the time. I invited him to view the photos at a training session for volunteers that I was conducting the following day at the Field Museum of Natural History . He did not show. Although we would occasionally see one another at the museum , nothing more was said about his article or my photographs, that is until the museum conducted another volunteer training session for the new Cleopatra exhibit which opened in October 2001. I saw Yurco at the first session and decided then and there that I would give him a copy of “The Unwrapping of Egyptology”, which was first published in the Kemetic Voice in 1999. The following week I did just that. [b]I personally handed him a copy of the Kemetic Voice and asked him to read the article and to give me feedback. Amiably, he agreed. However, he did not show for the final training session. I do not know whether my article had anything to do with his absence, but I was reminded of the first time I tried to present him with this information in 1998.[/b] Finally an opportunity presented itself during a walk-through of the Cleopatra exhibit. [b]As I stood near the exit of the exhibit, I saw Yurco explaining certain aspects of the exhibit to a group of volunteers. I positioned myself so that it was virtually impossible for him to pass without seeing me. To my amazement, Yurco scurried right past me without uttering one word. I literally ran after him. Fortunately, there were two other members of the Kemetic Institute present to witness this encounter. When I caught Yurco and asked him what he thought about the article[/b] , the first thing he said was “I still maintain that it is a pastiche.” It was obvious from his statement that he had read the article. I again agreed with him on that point and pressed him further with regard to the contents of the pastiche and my photographs. [b]In other words, were the ancient Egyptians as depicted in the tomb of Ramesses III shown in the same skin colour and dress as the Ku****es? Still walking hurriedly and looking quite ill at ease Yurco finally conceded that the depiction of the ancient Egyptians in the tomb of Ramesses III shows them to have the same black skin colour and dress as the Ku****es. When asked if this was a valid representation of the ancient Egyptians, Yurco again conceded.[/b] ‘ (p34).'The Battle for Kemet' Charles A.Grantham[/i] This is precisely why you cannot trust these pink devils with our history! They are sneaky sneaky sneaky..."White man talk with forked tongue" (Old Native American proverb) Frank Yurco [IMG]http://www.earlheinrich.com/Ancient%20Nubia/Assets/Yurco1.jpg[/IMG] Christopher Ehret [IMG]http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/history/ehret/ehret.jpg[/IMG] Interesting that this particular portrait was found in the same E1b1a confirmed Ramses III's tomb...coincidence I think not.
