[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike111: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by argyle104: Mike, why is the image on the coin not heroic? [/QUOTE][IMG]http://www.beforebc.de/all_africa/02-16-100-54-car-73-000-22a-10-01.jpg[/IMG] [b]Congratulations argyle104, a civilized question deserves a civilized answer. The current style of modern Black men (especially AAs) of unkempt hair, is new. Probably as the result of the ignorant belief that the rudiments of civilized behavior and grooming are a White invention. (That is why I had no answer for TheAmericanPatriot above - he had me and I knew it). But the facts are quite the opposite; Black people are the inventors of civilization, and the rudiments therein. Ancient Black elites were fastidious about grooming. Their hair was always either completely cut off or carefully coiffured. The Phoenicians were amount the ancient worlds wealthiest, most civilized, and most cosmopolitan people - please note the other reliefs of Phoenicians. Therefore, the suggestion that one of Phoenicia's greatest kings, would be depicted on his coin with unkempt hair, is to me preposterous, and not in keeping with other depictions of Phoenicians. Please note how other Black kings (in this case, Persian kings) of similar times depicted themselves on their coins. As you can see, there is an effort to make the subject appear noble and heroic.
