[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ebony Allen: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by HistoryFacelift: [qb] I think many people are too biased, I agree with the first poster. While I consider the Ancient Egyptians today black, this is the reason I consider the Ancients black, because I believe though pure race blacks were among ancient Egyptians, much like today- there was heavy mixture, much like today, but the bottom line is, the overall appearance of them will be/are "black". I am convinced that people intermixed I am also convinced that Egypt may of had a caste system. You know in Egypt when I have been there, blacks are only Americans. They do not call other African tribes blacks, only an American black, I am not sure what they call white and I am not sure why they only call Americans black. Hawass said the Egyptians were not black, he means not the type of people in America's black communities, he says they were not Arabs, but he also knows Arabs are by tribe. Many people get lost in translation you have to understand someone's background before you think he is attacking you - because what you think is how things are classified at home are not everywhere. Hawass is Egyptian, his statements come from an Egyptian heart, he knows the culture he understands how they classify, I think he didn't even bother to say "they were not white" because he knows the Greeks were "white", and they were Egyptians, he is now looking for their tombs. Maybe to be sure we may ask him were the Nubians Egyptian, because he know they were at some point too. :D But otherwise, I also think he would not mention whites, because he must think it is crazy for white people to try to claim Egypt before the Greeks just like he thinks it is crazy for blacks to want to claim Egypt when they are not Egyptian people. He is very rooted in his culture. Understand him. You know many Africans see American blacks as a tribe of their own people. [/qb][/QUOTE]How the hell is it biased to say they were not mixed race, but black? Hawass doesn't know what he's talking about. Him being an Egyptian does not mean he is an expert on what the ancient Egyptians look like. You are just as retarded as the first two posters. [/QB][/QUOTE]
