Mike most of the time I post pictures of Black and Mulato Greeks and Romans, sometime I will post pictures of White Greeks and Romans. I think Graeco Romans civilization was composed of people of different races like the original Black Europeans, the White Europeans and Central Asians and the majority Brown and Mulato children of the Black and White people.
The majority White Graeco Roman artifacts in Western museums have been reworked during renovations to look Caucasians. They do that by changing the noses, mouth and the hairs. I post White Graeco Roman artifacts because sometime I can see the Black culture that the renovators or falsificators miss out in the hairstyles, jewleries, clothings, objects and religious animals that we can also see in Ancient Egyptian and African artifacts.

Three of the coins date from 31 BC when they were issued by Roman general Mark Antony 14 January 83 BC to 1 August 30 BC. A granite bust is shown
Some of the coins date from the rule of Emperor Nero, (bust pictured left) between 54 and 68AD. He was known for being cruel and extravagant. The most recent coins among the hoard were issued by Marcus Aurelius, (bust shown right) who ruled from 161AD to 180AD
The rare hoard was discovered within a mile from another historic find of 130 denarii, which was unearthed 15 years ago. This image shows a Marcus Aurelius coin from the newly-discovered hoard
The three silver denarii were found among the 'new' hoard of 91 coins, including those issued by Roman rulers spanning 200 years. A selection from the Wick hoard are shown above
A numismatist has said the denarii may be 'worth tens of thousands of pounds'. A close-up of a coin bearing the image of Marcus Aurelius, which was among the hoard, is shown above

Thanks Autshumato, It doesnt make sense that Western historians in their history books classified Graeco Roman civilization as a White people civilizations. I am asking myself if those Western historians ever visited a museum. Graeco Roman museum artifacts shows people belonging to the Mulato/Brown, Black and White races. In Egyptsearch forum my goal was to focus on Black Egyptian artifacts however i have spent so much time on Black Graeco Roman artifacts.

Oshun most of the pictures of Romans and Greeks I posted are the picture of Mulato people who are half Black and half White. For me a Mulato in a civilization, kingdom and royal dynasty created by Black people is a Black person by blood and culture. Mulato people in the ancient world and probably today had Black people and White people in their family. The Roman Empire and Ancient Greece was composed of many race( Black, Brown/Mulato, White) and were created by Black people.
Considering that The White race phenotype and morphology are East African, North African and Sahelian halp of my pictures in this thread might be Black people with long faces, long noses, thin lips and straight soft hair and not Mulato.
