[QUOTE]Originally posted by Bettyboo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sundiata: [qb] The facts remain that West Africa/West Africans has/have been civilized much longer than Western Europe has and one of the greatest empires(Mali) in Western Africa actually incorporated a land mass larger than Western Europe its self and sustained it for over 400 years, only to be succeeded by an even larger Empire(Songhay). They'd in fact fall ill simply knowing that if they'd simply ponder on the significance of it and if it weren't so often pushed under the rug.. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Bettyboo: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Yonis: [qb] Yeah, thats a wild theory. Sounds almost as the jewish exodus. [/qb][/QUOTE]At least the Jewish exodus sounds alot more plausible than this one! We have evidence of Asiatics living in communities in the Eastern Delta, and most slaves in Egypt were Asiatic. While we have no evidence at all of Egyptian mass migration to West Africa. [b]LOL[/b] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Bettyboo: [qb] Black Americans do not share no ancestry with Ancient Egyptians. When ancient Egypt was a great civilization the rest of Africa wasn't empty. There were already stocks and groups of Africans living throughout the continent including West Africa. Black Americans have nothing to do with ancient Egypt; that's just wishful thinking. [/qb][/QUOTE]Actually Black Americans as people of African ancestry do *share* ancestry with ancient Egyptians, but this is not the same as saying Black Americans directly descend from them. I am still suspectful of you Betty. ;) Everyone read my post about what I think of Wally's claim as well as the problem of trying to conform Africa from a Eurocentric standpoint. [/qb][/QUOTE]You got to be kidding me. Black Americans do not *share* ancestry with ancient Egyptians. And don't dare tell me that some of the Nubians and it's many stocks went into the Congo and the Congolese were part of the Atlantic slave trade, and that's how black Americans share ancient Egyptian ancestry. :rolleyes: [/qb][/QUOTE]He didn't say (definitively) that African-Americans share Ancient Egyptian ancestry(or that none do), he's saying that both Ancient Egyptians and ancestors of African-Americans shared African ancestry, which is confirmed as fact.. [/qb][/QUOTE]No, he didn't say that. He said black Americans, as a people of African ancestry, do *share* ancestry with ancient Egyptians. Just because Ancient Egyptians were "African" and black Americans are descendants of "Africans" does not mean they have a *shared* ancestry with Egyptians. Do you think Ethiopians have a *shared* ancestry with Nigerian just because they are both black and African? [/QB][/QUOTE]
