[QUOTE]Originally posted by King_Scorpion: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Yonis: [qb] Evidence please that most of the Egyptians moved out of Egypt? Modern Egyptians are directly descendents of the ancient Egyptians, you can argue that they've had alot of mixing due to the influx of conquerers for the last 2500 years, but to say that most of their ancestors migrated from Egypt makes you only look redicoulas, and an insult to modern Egyptians aswell as their ancestors. [/qb][/QUOTE]The ironic thing Yonis, is that Ausar (a modern Egyptian) has repeated this over a hundred times on this board yet people like Clyde refuse to listen. Instead they prefer the fantasy of Egyptians leaving in a mass exodus to escape the rule and persecution of non-Africans who were invading their land. These Egyptians somehow made their way across the Sahara not stopping until they reached West Africa, leaving behind no materials in this great journey-- only modern day descendants including African Americans! [b]LOL[/b] :D [/qb][/QUOTE]To be fair, the archeology required to properly look into this claim is nearly impossible looking at the state of many African nations. So where there MAY be evidence...it is not currently possible to do anything about it. Also, population migrations aren't an uncommon thing and if occured over generations may have not been recorded as a MASS MIGRATION as if everyone left at the same time. That's what I think Clyde is getting at...but it's still a faulty argument without the proper evidence and documentation. Some examples though...You had the Great Migration in America between 1914 and 1950 when over 1 million Black southerners moved North and West to escape racism and joblessness in the South. You also had the Indian Trail of Tears here in America and the western Gold Rush along the Oregon Trail. So, to be fair to the theory, it's not EXTREMELY far-fetched and impossible...just not well documented and supported by strong, convincing evidence. I've read a lot about the connections between Dogon/Egyptian cosmology, culture, religion, etc. So the argument is definently there...and not defined by the "afrocentrists" as seems to be the impression.
