In the link i wonder what recent dna evidence they are talking about.
This?
Quote- In February 2010, the results of DNA tests confirmed that he was the son of Akhenaten (mummy KV55) and Akhenaten's sister and wife (mummy KV35YL), whose name is unknown but whose remains are positively identified as "The Younger Lady" mummy found in KV35.
Quote- An academic study which included DNA profiling of some of the related male mummies of the 18th Dynasty of Egypt was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 2010. Tutankhamun's Y-DNA haplogroup was not published in the academic paper.[29][30][31] In 2011 iGENEA, a Swiss personal genomics company selling genealogical DNA tests, claimed to have reconstructed King Tut's Y-DNA profile based on some screencaps from a Discovery Channel documentary about the study. iGENEA claims that King Tut belonged to Y-DNA haplogroup R1b1a. Members of the research team that conducted the academic study published in 2010 stated they had not been consulted by iGENEA before they published the haplogroup information and described iGENEA's claims as "unscientific".
Quote-
Scientists at a Zurich-based DNA genealogy centre, iGENEA, in a in Discovery Channel documentary 2011 claimed that Tutankhamun had Haplogroup R1b1a2, to which more than 50% of European men, but less than 1% of modern-day Egyptians belong to.
But the Y-chromosome of King Tut has never been published and DNA profile displayed in Discovery Channel documentary may not belong to the Pharaoh. According to Carsten Pusch, a geneticist at Germany's University of Tübingen who was part of the team that unraveled Tut's DNA from samples taken from his mummy and mummies of his family members, iGENEA's claims are "simply impossible."
R1b does show up in parts of northern Africa, particularly some regions in Algeria, where tests have found it in 11.8% of subjects.[19] It is also found in central Africa around Chad and Cameroon,[20] but the Chadic-speaking area in Africa is dominated by the branch known as R1b1c (R-V88).
or this?

I am proud to be White , and I don't claim anything other than White. No Indians, Arabs, Ethiopians, East Africans, or any other so called "Caucasians". As much as I would like to claim Ancient Egypt as a "WHITE SOCIETY". All of this proof Black Egypt keeps adding up. You've these DNA test, disgraceful Whites coming out admitting to they're lies, and even our own Greek Historians that described the Ancient Egyptians and Ethiopians as Black. I've always wondered why Ethiopians, Eritreans, Somalians, and Sudanese resembled Ancient Egyptians so much. Could they be the descendants from when the Romans, Arabs, and Turks invaded and they migrated South?? I am almost losing hope. My son brought this info to my attention, and I did more research on it. It all adds up, and I'm discussed. You guys take a look at this below and you be the judge of things.
Take a look at this that was found in Ramses Tomb. A classification of races in Ancient Egypt after foreign invasions. There are 2 particalar groups with Dark skin complexion. 1) The really Black ones that are Nubians. 2) The brown dark skin ones that are The Ancient Egyptians. The rest of them are Semites, Asiatics, etc. Us Whites would be put in those categories. Because, if those atual Brown Dark skinned Ancient Egyptians are really White, why do they look different from the others??

Those people are Dutch tourists in Egypt. Tourists can dress up like this and get photographed.
And of course the biggest riddle ever?
Why is it halve Europeans don't carry the Sickle Cell disease?
quote: King Tut died from sickle-cell disease, not malaria
King Tutankhamun died from sickle-cell disease, not malaria, say experts. A team from Hamburg's Bernhard Noct Institute for Tropical Medicine (BNI) claim the disease is a far likelier cause of death than the combination of bone disorders and malaria put forward by Egyptian experts earlier this year.
The BNI team argues that theories offered by Egyptian experts, led by antiquities tsar Zahi Hawass, are based on data that can be interpreted otherwise. They say further analysis of the data will confirm or deny their work. Hawass' claim, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association this February, and followed by a swarm of accompanying television shows, claimed King Tut suffered from Kohler's disease, a bone disorder prohibiting blood flow, before succumbing to malaria.
Multiple bone disorders, including one in Tutankhamun's left foot, led to the Kohler's diagnosis, while segments of a malarial parasite were found via DNA testing. Yet the BNI team claims the latter results are incorrect. “Malaria in combination with Köhler's disease causing Tutankhamun's early death seems unlikely to us,” say Prof Christian Meyer and Dr Christian Timmann.
Instead the BNI team feels sickle-cell disease (SCD), a genetic blood disorder, is a more likely reason for the Pharaoh's death aged just 19. The disease occurs in 9 to 22 per cent of people living in the Egyptian oases, and gives a better chance of surviving malaria; the infestation halted by sickled cells.
They say the disease occurs frequently in malarial regions like the River Nile, and that it would account for the bone defects found on his body.
“The genetic predisposition for (SCD) can be found in regions where malaria frequently occurs, including ancient and modern Egypt.” says Meyer. “The disease can only manifest itself when a sickle cell trait is inherited from both parents: it is a so-called 'recessive inheritance'.” A family tree for the Pharaoh suggested by Hawass himself appears to back the BNI team's case.
The relatively old age of Tutankhamun's parents and relatives – up to 50 years – means they could very well have carried sickle-cell traits, and could therefore have been highly resistant to malaria. The high likelihood that King Tut's parents were siblings means he could have inherited the sickle cell trait from both and suffered from SCD.
“Sickle-cell disease is an important differential diagnosis: one that existing DNA material can probably confirm or rule out,” conclude Timmann and Meyer. They suggest that further testing of ancient Egyptian royal mummies should bear their conclusions in mind.
King Tut's young demise has long been a source of speculation. As well as malaria, recent decades have seen scholars argue that he was murdered, and that he died from infection caused by a broken leg.
I never cease to be amazed at the diversity of projects that come through the studio.
Paleontology, Archeology, Forensic reconstruction modern reproductions. We have done a bit of it all. A few months back the National Geographic Society and AEG (Art and exhibition, approached me to create a model of the mummy of Tutankhamun. It was a short time frame with some complex logistics. The mummy had been CT scanned and so we had to process that information into the correct file format in order to send it to a 3-D printer. The trick was to find a company that could rapid prototype the mummy in the most accurate way possible. (with in the very short time frame.)
After a bit of intense deliberation I decided to use the medical imaging software company "Materialise" a corporation headquartered in Belgium, with branches in the US. They were able to interpret the CT data and begin the prototype of the model. While they were working on the prototype I flew to Luxor, Egypt to the Valley of the Kings to gather reference information and photograph the mummy in it's tomb. A surreal experience to be sure. When I returned my studio assistant Owen Bissex and I sculpted in the fine details of skin fabric and Bruce Wendorff built the display tray for the Mummy out of imported Beech wood.
Gary Staab probably doesn't know that Tut was tropical adapted in body plans. While Gary himself is cold adapted in body plans.
Ancient Egyptians even painted his real color complexion, on his very own Thorn. Gary, are you familiar with King Tuts very own Thorn? Look delusional Gary, this is what it looks like.
quote: Determination of optimal rehydration, fixation and staining methods for histological and "immunohistochemical analysis of mummified soft tissues"
A-M Mekota1, M Vermehren Department of Biology I, Biodiversity Research/Anthropology1and Department of Veterinary Anatomy II2, Ludwig-Maximilians University Munich, Germany
Submitted January 8, 2002; revised May 4, 2004; accepted August 12, 2004
Abstract
During an excavation headed by the German Institute for Archaeology, Cairo, at the tombs of the nobles in Thebes-West, Upper Egypt, three types of tissues from different mummies were sampled to compare 13 well known rehydration methods for mummified tissue with three newly developed methods. Furthermore, three fixatives were tested with each of the rehydration fluids.
Meniscus (fibrocartilage), skin, and a placenta were used for this study. The rehydration and fixation procedures were uniform for all methods.
Materials and methods
In 1997, the German Institute for Archaeology headed an excavation of the tombs of the nobles in Thebes-West, Upper Egypt. At this time, three types of tissues were sampled from different mummies: meniscus (fibrocartilage), skin, and placenta. Archaeological findings suggest that the mummies dated from the New Kingdom (approxi- mately 1550-1080 BC).
Skin
Skin sections showed particularly good tissue preservation, although cellular outlines were never distinct. Although much of the epidermis had already separated from the dermis, the remaining epidermis often was preserved well (Fig. 1).
The basal epithelial cells were packed with melanin as expected for specimens of Negroid origin. In the dermis, the hair follicles, hair, and sebaceous and sweat glands were readily apparent (Fig. 2). Blood vessels, but no red blood cells, and small peripheral nerves were identified unambiguously (Fig. 3). The subcutaneous layer showed loose connective tissue fibers attached to the dermis, and fat cell remnants were observed.
To evaluate the influence of postmortum tissue decay by micro-organisms, the samples were tested for the presence of fungi using silver staining.

"Physical anthropologists are increasingly concluding that racial definitions are the culturally defined product of selective perception and should be replaced in biological terms by the study of populations and clines. Consequently, any characterization of race of the ancient Egyptians depend on modern cultural definitions, not on scientific study. Thus, by modern American standards it is reasonable to characterize the Egyptians as 'blacks' while acknowledging the scientific evidence for the physical diversity of Africans ."

I wonder how many African-Americans will be chosen to represent Ancient Egyptians...

Indeed. Probably few, or none at all. All these black celebs with cash should fund efforts to put out a more balanced picture.National Geog and similar are able to dominate the field in part because there are no credible alternatives that can reach the mainstream media in quantity. A high quality TV show, DVD series and book would be a good start- no doubt costing several thousand, but such would be chump change to Orpah, "Hova" or Diddy.

Personally, I think the King Tut series will have "many" African-Americans as main characters and figurants/extras. But still an overwhelming minority compared to the real thing. They often do it even for TV series set in ancient Rome. With Ancient Egypt being in Africa and everything, there will probably be more African people there. Still it will probably be a far cry for the actual situation as pointed by the Oxford encyclopedia, Diop, Obenga, anthropological, linguistic, cultural and recent DNA analysis like this one and those posted above:
quote:"Genetic kinship analyses revealed identical haplotypes in both mummies (table 1); using the Whit Athey’s haplogroup predictor, we determined the Y chromosomal haplogroup E1b1a. The testing of polymorphic autosomal microsatellite loci provided similar results in at least one allele of each marker (table 2)."
This being the modern distribution of E1b1a descendant (now often referred as E-M2) and (thus) widely present in modern West Africans and Bantu people:
It's wait and see, I guess. Nonetheless, it will be a great series to look out for. Special effects and CGI now allow to create very elaborate worlds even in (lower budget) TV series.

A computed tomography (CT) scan uses X-rays to make detailed pictures of structures inside of the body. The computer modelers used a CT scan of the mummy on computer to print a full sized 3D model in transparent plastic. 3D printers print objects by building up many very thin layers on top of each other until a three dimensional form is created. After the model was created by this mechanical process, the transparent plastic model was given to Gary Staab who put color and texture on it to make it look realistic.

On all grounds I elaborated, meaning from different disciplines, I've posted peer reviewed studies. Up to the most simplest comparisons.

So the mean question is, why do some try to white wash him, into something he wasn't and isn't? Why so you try to white wash AE into something to weren't and aren't ?

You said due to the reconstruction of the Mummy of Tutankhamun that Gary Staab who was involved in the finishing of it probably didn't know that Tut was tropical adapted in body plans.
But the body plan of the reconstruction matches the proportions of the mummy

Yes, I did. Say he likely is unaware of this.
I also posted pictures along of Southern Egyptians who show closes matches to the Throne depiction. Of the boy King who's burial was found in the South of Egypt.
I also posted along a study on pigmentation of ancient Egyptian mummies.
And I posted hundreds of times the tropical adapted body positions of ancient Egyptians.
So the question still stands, why trying to whitewash?

But, look how you defend European history with tooth and nail.
It was you who was trying to corrupted the subject, as you always do.
We know that Southern Egyptians show closest match to ancient Egyptians. From different biological aspects. So why still the whitewashing? Posts: 22234 | From: האם אינכם כילדי הכרית אלי בני ישראל | Registered: Nov 2010

Those boys from Southern Egypt show similarity in overall comparison. And there are thousands of them. Not for example the East Indian boy you've trolled the forum with as suppose him to show the closets match.
The reason why I post pictures of these boys is to show that indeed it is in support of what peer reviewed studies tell us.
And you are not the owner of that picture, so legally you don't have the right to cut up that picture.

Try to figure out, his age. In the statue comparison. Yep, that's right.
See, I have posted the throne of the boy King, King Tut. Specifically for a mandatory reason. It shows him in his all his glory. Including the melanin substance.

Actually Southern Egyptians can see differences between a Ethiopian and themselves. They may see some similarities.
