[QUOTE]Originally posted by kenndo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by rasol: [qb] [QUOTE]this is getting of topic but i just wanted post this. ancient nubia by david o'conner quote - [/QUOTE]I don't know why you are always promoting O-Conner's *nubia propaganda*. [QUOTE]O'Conner: nubia and nubian for the periods covered in this book refer only to geographical locations,not to ethnicity or language of the peoples involved.[/QUOTE]This is a disclaimer. Disclaimer's often occur in false advertising in fine print. Dis = deny, claim. You officially deny your own claims so as to avoid being tagged as and outright liar. [QUOTE]O'Conner: Nubia is a word of unknown origin[/QUOTE]This is false. O'Conner knows etymological origin of Nubia but prefers not to discuss it. The word is of Kemetic ["ancient egyptian"] in origin. It is acually not of cushitic [ancient sudanese] origin, and has no known etymology in any other language other than mdw ntr. [i]a town in Upper Egypt Per nub.t ¿ ¿ I ¿‘ I ooo (I) the capital of the Nome of Nubt[/i] - [URL=http://books.google.com/books?id=l-Lx6rvS0hYC&pg=PA988&lpg=PA988&dq=nub.t+upper+egypt&source=web&ots=hI0goY0AVf&sig=mJ-AETSr-u9X8AIY2vCaV8YRqkc][b]Egyptian Hieroglyphic Dictionary Part 2 By E. A. Wallis Budge[/b][/URL] ^ Likely O'Conner doesn't want to discuss it, because it would lead the reader towards the truth, and away from his thesis. [QUOTE]Doug wrote: As you stated, "Nubia" was a word invented long after the demise of ancient Egypt to be a euphemism for black Africans. It is a FOREIGN WORD invented by FOREIGNERS.[/QUOTE]Yes, Conner uses the term precisely to lead his readers astray, and in Kenndo's case, his cynical strategy has worked flawlessly. :( [/qb][/QUOTE]the more update second comment was from robert bianchi he wrote recently a book about the history of the region he had some more updated info on the word in one of his chapters ,i will just leave at that rasol. i will leave now since i know where this will go again . :rolleyes: [/QB][/QUOTE]
