[QUOTE]Originally posted by GlobalAfrikanSupremacy: [QB] Mindovermatter, he ignored my sources. Unlike him I cited real professionals in this field not some stupid youtube video. "In general, the inhabitants of Upper Egypt and Nubia had the greatest biological affinity to people of the Sahara and more southerly areas." "There is now a sufficient body of evidence from modern studies of skeletal remains to indicate that the Ancient Egyptians, especially southern Egyptians, exhibited physical characteristics that are within the range of variation for ancient and modern indigenous peoples of the Sahara and tropical Africa." http://www.amazon.com/Oxford-Encyclopedia-Ancient-Egypt-Set/dp/0195102347/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256656690&sr=1-1#reader_0195102347"]Oxford Encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt pg.28: "The evidence also points to linkages to other northeastern African peoples, not coincidentally approximating the modern range of languages closely related to Egyptian in the Afro-Asiatic group (formerly called Hamito-Semitic). These linguistic similarities place ancient Egypt in a close relationship with languages spoken today in north Eastern Africa as far west as Chad and South to Somalia. Archeological evidence also strongly supports an African origin. A widespread North eastern African cultural assemblage, including distinctive multiple barbed harpoons and pottery decorated with dotted wavy line patterns, appears during the early neolithic (also known as Aqualithic, a reference to the mild climate of the Sahara at this time). Saharan and Sudanese rock art from this time resembles early Egyptian iconography. Strong connections between Nubian (Sudanese) and Egyptian material culture continue in the later Neolithic Badarian culture of Upper Egypt. Similarities include black-topped wares, vessels with characteristic ripple-burnished surfaces, a special tulip-shaped vessel with incised and white-filled decoration, palettes, and harpoons." "The limb-length proportions of males from the Egyptian sites [b]group them with Africans rather than with Europeans." [/b] [/QB][/QUOTE]
