[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] Most of these people are NOT BLACK in any sense of the word. Blacks have had royalty since before Europe even knew what royalty meant. Europe is not the home of or definition of royalty. Blacks do not need to look at European whites for glimpses of black greatness, because they had their own greatness LONG BEFORE THAT. Check Egypt, check Sudan, check ancient Ghana, check ancient India, check ancient Sumer, check ancient South Asia, check ancient America, check ancient Africa. ALL of these places had traditions of royalty that PREDATE Europe and featured blacks, so there is no reason to look at Europe to find black greatness when there are plenty of historical examples of black greatness all over the world. In fact, in many ways Europeans were only imitating others in their traditions. So why admire the imitator instead of the originator? Most of what you see in European royal costume either originates in the textile traditions of the Moors or Muslims: silk, brocade, damask, taffeta, felt and so on, as well as India an the far East. Much of the jewelry again comes from the Muslims, Africans, India and the far East. Crowns, thrones, scepters, feathers, sashes and all these other signs of royalty go back to Persia, Egypt, Babylon, India and Asia. And this is the time when Europe was going on a journey to find and bring back more of these ancient traditions and customs to incorporate into their own empire. But they didn't ORIGINATE it. I mean some people pretend that the Europeans invented royalty, when they did not. [/QB][/QUOTE]
