I had a argument with a friend concerning if the ancient Egyptians used eunuchs as a part of it's culture; I say they did not, my friend claim they did use eunuchs. My understanding is it was a practice in asia, but not so in Africa, thus Egypt. Can anyone on the forum shed some light on the subject?

^ I thought there were accounts of African kings owning eunuchs, though this was during Medieval times so I don't know if it was a native tradition or Arab-Islamic influence.
