[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wally: [QB] Know one seems to have picked up on my original comment about the French and their 'discovery' -"the French examination of the pharaoh and their conclusion that Rameses II had naturally red hair."

Maspero's observation seems the more plausible (he [b]was [/b]the first to see the mummy unwrapped). White hair that was chemically dyed (on purpose or not). Know one seems to question the French researchers on their 'discovery'... And isn't anyone here familiar with the Masai Moran? Amongst them (and a lot of other East African groups), artificially dyed red hair is a fetish! ... [This message has been edited by Wally (edited 15 September 2004).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
