[QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [QB] [QUOTE]I think Ancient Egyptians, Sumerians, Nubians, Romans, Greeks, and all other Ancient people were more concerned with persons nationality or tribe rather than persons skin color or how he/she looked. They most likely didn't see race as we see it in the World.[/QUOTE] You are probably right about this. I still think it would be nieave to say they did not notice physical differences of people lighter or darker than themselves. Ancient Egyptians,for instance, believe that all non-Egyptians were isofret[chasos] that needed to be balanced by ma'at. Yet, we see examples of foreign groups like Syrians,Caanites,and Libyans that became integrated into the overall culture of the ancient Egyptians. Greeks felt people all non-Greeks were barbarians and that non-Athenian citizens could not obtain citizenship,but still we also see foreigners that intermarried with Greeks throughout their civlization.
